Democrats asked for ONE THING today to reopen the govt: Keep health insurance subsidies where they are at now for one year. That is IT. Nothing else.
Republicans said no.
So all the lies they tell every day about things Dems are asking for is BS.
Republicans OWN this shutdown.

Our new health insurance premium feels more like a shakedownโผ๏ธ
Thank you, @politicsgirl.bsky.social , for sharing your story. Youโre rightโthere are millions like you.
Our new premium is over $3K/month for a family of three. Could we scrape it together? Maybe. Should we have to? No.

Sen. Schatz: This is not about money. There is enough money to bail out Argentina with $20 billion. There is enough money to purchase a brand new aircraft for $173 million for the DHS Secretary. There is enough money to renovate the White House ballroom. But there's not enough money for you

Hopefully itโll get thrown out of court and she can sue him for wrongful prosecution, libel/slander. Clearly thereโs no one competent left in the DOJ.

I want him out of office, though I donโt wish him illness or death, but having (unfortunately) been exposed to narcissists and sociopaths before, I agree with your assessment.

Sounds like this survivor of Epstein and Maxwell is saying she'd take Trump pardoning Maxwell as an admission of guilt, which sounds like a smart message.

Weโve bombed Iran. And dismantled our joint terrorism task force. And sent a third of the FBI to help ICE. And gutted the National Security Council. And a drunk guy is in charge at the pentagon. And our intelligence allies probably wonโt share intel with us. Because people couldnโt vote for a woman.

Trump commutes sentence of Miami healthcare exec convicted of Medicare fraud
He and his girlfriend pocketed more than $87 million in the scheme.
Donald has spent the last week pardoning his friends who defrauded Medicare, union pensions, banks, and more. This is what โfraud and abuseโ actually looks like.

His track record speaks for itself. While we continue to resist, we should take comfort in that he is deeply incompetent, not very bright & his policies are hurting even his most devoted supporters. Let's not get in the way of his inevitable self-destruction.

My heart is breaking not just for the principles our country embraced until the Trump/Musk/Vance regime abandoned them, for our armed forces who have fought and died to protect those principles, and for President Zelenskyy and the people of Ukraine for the egregious treatment they received today.
