Again!
We believe healthcare is a right for every American.
But starting today, millions of people will be notified that they are being priced out of their insurance thanks to Republican policies.
Enough is enough. The GOP may shut down the government, but we will stand tall for YOU.
There is no world in which it is normal for the president to publicly call upon his attorney general to hurry up and prosecute his political foes. It’s like the Watergate tapes but posted on social media. Let’s get a grip on what’s happening here.
WATCH — @aoc.bsky.social : “At some point we’ve gotta call these people’s B.S. for what it is. You can’t believe everything a con man is gonna tell you. We cannot live in perpetual fear of these clowns.” #TrumpShutdown
STEPHANOPOULOS: The Democratic proposal is designed to prevent millions of Americans from losing their health insurance, losing Medicaid coverage, or paying higher healthcare premiums. Why are you against that?
MIKE JOHNSON: That's an absurd statement
STEPHANOPOULOS: It's a factual statement
NEW: Rachel Maddow drops unseen bodycam footage of feds coordinating the arrest of Newark Mayor Baraka.
I REPEAT: the feds ordered his arrest even though he wasn’t breaking any laws.
Federal agent: “We are arresting the mayor right now per the Deputy Attorney General of the United States.”
WATCH: "They are underwater across the board, and they know it. And that is causing them to double down in public. But it is backfiring. That is why—whether it's a shutdown, whether it's all of this—they want us to blink first. And we have too much to save," says AOC.
the president of the united states wants to use the american military to kill american citizens on american soil. that's the whole story!
After today’s batshit Trump speech at Quantico, Rep. @danielsgoldman.dg4ny.co tells me he believes Trump is making moves toward an attempt to scrap elections in ‘28.

President Trump and Congressional Republicans just shut down the government because they refused to stop your health care costs from rising.
Let me be clear: Republicans are in charge of the White House, House, and Senate. This is their shutdown.
Gallego: "The president is an idiot. He doesn't actually understand how the military works."
Thank you Lawrence!
You knocked it out of the park again

This.
Donald Trump is way less popular than he wants you to believe.
And you are significantly more powerful than he wants you to think.
Disgraceful
I don't often quote the president, but here goes:
"If there is a shutdown, I think it would be a tremendously negative mark on the president of the United States. He's the one that has to get people together."
- Donald Trump
Senate Republicans just voted to shut down the government — blocking our bill to fund it responsibly, protect health care, and stop Trump from getting a blank check for his lawlessness.
They’d rather please their Dear Leader than deliver for the American people. Shameful.
But Thune is refusing to negotiate when the government is open too. So no negotiation - open or closed. Got it.
It’s so pathetically predicable.
“Democrats did __________ because of illegals.”
They think the American people are dumb. They aren’t.
This government shut down is all about whether Republicans will get away with raising health care premiums by 75% for 20 million Americans and throwing 15 million people off their health care.
We can't allow that to happen.
Republicans would rather shut down the government than help millions of Americans afford health care. This article tells some of their stories, and is a good reminder of what’s at stake.
Yes, there are!
The arc of the moral universe is long, but it bends towards justice. Except it doesn’t bend on its own—it bends because we pull it in the direction of justice. What keeps me hopeful during times like these is being surrounded by people who are doing just that.
“I’m really good at this stuff. Your countries are going to hell.”
To the people of the world who wonder if there are Americans who grasp how mad he is: There are. We can see it. We are working to mobilize our people to oppose him and his dangerous regime.
More reporting like this please.
AOC: And when Republicans use a legislative mechanism to gut the American health care system, we have to use a legislative mechanism in order to restore it and to fight for it.
Republicans can’t win on their policies, so they are trying to dodge accountability by rewriting the rules. These lawmakers are going out of their way to silence the will of the people and deliberately undermine our democracy.
