How Americans covered through ACA exchanges are navigating the spike in premiums Weโ€™re weeks away from 20 million Americans seeing a massive spike in their healthcare premiums. Thatโ€™s if no deal can be struck to extend subsidies under the Affordable Care Act. We heard from some of...

A four and a half minute PBS focus on how the ACA subsidies not being reinstated will affect real people.

The horrors of socialism like public education, public parks, fire departments, libraries, public transportation, public infrastructure, the VA, medicare, social security, Scandinavia? Personally, I donโ€™t want to give any of those up.

Thou shalt not call your political opponents โ€œviolentโ€ when YOU are the one openly threatening to execute your political opponents.

Look, this man regrets his choice. Itโ€™s hitting him hard and heโ€™s finally seeing the cost. Instead of us shouting FAFO, the question is why he made that choice in the first place and what it will take for people like him to choose leaders who actually fix this mess next time. We need every vote!

THIS is what true leaders sound like.

They don't brag about how great they are or speak nonsense about sharks, batteries, & magnets. They work for ALL the people & the ENTIRE country, focusing on prosperity.

Mostly, they don't attack, maim & kill their own citizens.

We're never going to get universal healthcare in this country as long as the companies that make us sick and sell us pharmaceuticals can dump endless cash to the people running for office.

Anyone wanna explain why Trump is murdering people on the high seas because they're alleged "drug dealers" but then pardoning convicted drug dealers at home?

I'd really like to hear how that works.

Do you think all of your friends & neighbors have seen ALL of these clips?

I bet they haven't, but you can make sure they do by saving & sharing this video across all your socials.

Democracy is in trouble & we're being led by a reprehensible predator. Speak out!

We donโ€™t have enough money to give schoolchildren lunches or seniors prescriptions. But we do have 2 billion to give dude bro Pete Hegseth a more edgy calling card.

Iโ€™d just like to reiterate that if you put on a mask, and go out without a warrant and kidnap people because they arenโ€™t white enough, youโ€™re a huge piece of shitโ€ฆ

If the Epstein files cleared Trump he would have already released them

Again: This entire shutdown fight is one big advertisement for #MedicareForAll

Making a broken system less bad is not a real answer and never was.

While Trumpโ€™s lawyers file an emergency petition with the Supreme Court tonight to do everything they possibly can to avoid paying SNAP benefits to the needy so they can starve, Trump flies to his country club for another weekend of parties and golf.

This is what oligarchy looks like:

If you're Elon Musk, the richest man alive, Tesla gives you a $1 trillion pay package & Trump gives you a huge tax break.

If you're a poor kid on SNAP, Trump appeals a court decision that would have prevented you from going hungry.

Obscene.

We slayed on Election Night with big wins! But, we also had some major significant down ballot wins as well! This proves that every vote counts! ๐ŸŒŠ๐ŸŒŠ

Want to get Americans off SNAP?

Well, if the minimum wage had kept up with inflation and productivity, it would be $26 an hour. That would remove 13 million workers from food stamps overnight.

Start there.
