Trump is threatening to “cut things they like”—including healthcare benefits—during his shutdown.
Who the hell is “they?” The American people?
You can damn well bet they “like” affordable healthcare. Good luck taking it from “them.”

Republicans control the House, the Senate, and the White House.
If the government shuts down, it’s on them. They own this. And the American People will pay the price.
Republicans clearly flunked civics in high school.
Undocumented immigrants CAN'T get Medicare, Medicaid, or healthcare tax credits. It’s against the law.
These guys lie because the facts are not on their side.
Yes, food assistance & FEMA will lose funding—but that has nothing to do with Democrats and EVERYTHING to do with Trump’s Big Ugly Bill.
Speaker Johnson—if you care so much about these programs, MAYBE DON’T PASS A BILL THAT DEFUNDS THEM.
If regular folks skip work, they get fired.
House Republicans (who are in charge) think the rules don’t apply to them—they’re sitting on their couch while the gov is about to run out of $.
Democrats are in DC fighting to lower healthcare costs.
We showed up to work. They didn’t.
Inflation is out of control.
Unemployment is rising.
Groceries are at record highs.
Your healthcare premiums are about to skyrocket.
The government is about to run out of money.
…and House Republicans went home.
Shameful.
Good to hear Nexstar is doing the right thing. Those who stand for free speech will fall on the right side of history.
Our voices are far more powerful than a wannabe dictator & his authoritarian regime. Keep speaking out. Don’t let them silence you.

Sonia Dahmani is imprisoned in Tunisia for her peaceful expression of speech.
I sent a letter with @schiff.senate.gov, Senator Cassidy, and @repmcgovern.bsky.social to the Tunisian President asking for her release. Ending her detention would affirm the democratic aspirations of the Tunisian people.
First, they overturned Roe. Now, they want to criminalize abortion in every state & make it harder for women to receive the care they need.
On the 25th anniversary of mifepristone’s FDA approval, let’s all recommit to fighting back against government control of women’s bodies.
I’m glad Sinclair decided to reverse course.
Now, Nexstar needs to do the same—they still haven't responded to my letter demanding to know why they helped censor content the government didn’t like.
Why do Republicans want to punish an escalator mechanic more than the woman who helped Epstein sexually abuse teenage girls?
Why won’t his FBI director release the “BLACK BOOK?”
Why did Trump call the files “irrelevant” after he found out what was in them?
Why won’t he meet with the victims?
For once, even @foxnews.com.web.brid.gy is telling the truth.
Trump’s inflation is driving grocery prices up & his cuts to food assistance are kicking working families while they’re down.
Meanwhile, corporate grocery giants are making record profits & their rich owners are getting huge tax breaks.
Who do you think he’s fighting for?
We’ve never paid more for coffee or beef. Thanks to Trump’s tariffs, prices are at record highs.
Do you think we’re better off in his economy?
UN escalator breaks: MAGA demands exhaustive investigations.
Trump hides a list of pedophiles: MAGA looks the other way.
Trump always seems to find billions to bail out his authoritarian friends—but not for food assistance or universal healthcare or anything that helps regular people. If we can prop up a foreign currency, we can damn well afford to provide basic services for American families.
El Salvador’s prisons are sites of torture and abuse. Yet the Trump Administration has sent legal residents there—in violation of international and U.S. law.
I led 17 colleagues in demanding Secretary Rubio & Secretary Noem end these renditions. Read more ⬇️
