Through every shutdown in history, the government has still provided economic data to the American people.

They arenโ€™t doing it this time because the numbers are fucking terrible.

The current GOP lie is that theyโ€™re going to replace Obamacare with something better.

Bullshit. In all of the majorities theyโ€™ve had since Obamacare passed, theyโ€™ve never once tried to replace it.

Theyโ€™ve tried to repeal it a whole bunch, but never actually make it better.

I don't know what the Senate is going to do. But if they do in fact fold in exchange for nothing, they will be living up to past performance. To expect the Senate to carry out the will of the American people is to misunderstand why it was created in the first place.

Speaker Johnson: Federal employees arenโ€™t being paid. Nutrition cuts may cause children to go hungry. Millions are seeing their health premiums soar.

End the 6 week paid vacation youโ€™ve taken. Join your Democratic colleagues and negotiate an end to this shutdown.

Lauren Boebert put more effort into a hateful Halloween party costume than she ever has into serving the people of Colorado's 4th Congressional District. I'm Trisha Calvarese, the former public servant whose going to fire her. Help me out, RT, follow, pitch in if you can.

Itโ€™s time for EVERY American to shed their politics and confront our grim reality.

Donald Trump is a mentally unhinged authoritarian.

He wants to burn down everything good and decent in our Republic for daring to hold him accountable.

He is a threat to Americaโ€ฆand the world.

3/3

This ladies and gentlemen, is Louisiana congressman Clay Higgins. What a dumb loser. Meanwhile he's getting paid while a large chunk of his district struggles to put food on the table.

Obama: "The weird videos of a US president with a crown on his head flying a fighter jet & dumping poop on American citizens - that's not even worth booing about. Because all of that is a distraction from the fact that your situation, your life has not gotten better. They do it so you won't notice"

I never thought I would see the day when a president would say or do the things Trump is doing. At 68, I saw JFK's assassination, RFK & MLK, Jr.'s murder, & Watergate. Nixon had an enemies list, but he didn't sic the DOJ on the people on the list, did he? I don't think so. #TrumpIsAFascist

Today, Mike Johnson will keep the House adjourned for the 85th day out of the last 97.

12 days of work in over 3 months.

With full pay and benefits.

The senate has been working, so this is not about the shutdown.

It is about avoiding a vote to release the Epstein files.

It's been over a month since Adelita Grijalva was duly elected to Congress.

But Speaker Johnson is denying her constituents representation and refusing to swear her in because she is the last signature needed to force a vote to release the Epstein files.

Shameful.

So the president took a dementia test, and then they administered an MRI. Whereโ€™s the media on this?

Today, Mike Johnson will keep the House adjourned for the 84th day out of the last 96.

12 days of work in over 3 months.

With full pay and benefits.

The senate has been working, so this is not about the shutdown.

It is about avoiding a vote to release the Epstein files.

He got the Speaker he wanted - a cuck who will sit in the corner and let him do whatever he pleases whenever he wants.

Grocery stores run on razor-thin margins. The overnight disappearance of the demand stimulated by food stamps will be very bad for their business. Bad enough to exacerbate food deserts. Bad enough to put downward pressure on the overall food supply.

He orders extrajudicial killings. He sent troops into our cities. He terrorizes citizens with ICE raids. He raised taxes without congressional approval. He has ruined American farmers and ranchers. He plans to starve the vulnerable. He demolished our house.

Remove him from office.

Air traffic control isnโ€™t getting paid.
VA doctors working without pay.
Farmers going bankrupt due to tariffs.
SNAP/WIC benefits about to be cut off.
Health insurance premiums slated to skyrocket.

But sure letโ€™s build a $300 million ballroom & bailout Argentina.

Where are the ads?!
