  • The Republicans are trying to take away health insurance from ~42 million lower income Americans by making it cost many, many times the amount it does now.

    Trump has been bullshitting us about his big new plan to replace Obamacare for 9 or more years now, but he’s obviously never even thought about it. So he’s just killing it, and fucking over Americans who need it.

    The democrats refused to accept this, and this led to a government shutdown when the Republicans became obstinant and refused to bargain. That shutdown is going to end now because the democrats just caved. They received nothing, and those 42 million Americans are now fucked.












  • It’s insane this is happening. If they provided this in the first place with the emergency funds, they could have convinced 42 million people on SNAP they were heroes.

    Instead, they are fighting the legal requirement to do this… And now they’ve roped in the Supreme Court, once again underlining how broken that system is, in addition to the presidency.

    The democrats have a clear path forward here. They just need to run a good candidate like AOC, instead of Biden 2.0 (Newsom), and they can dominate in the next election.




  • It does feel like things are resolving. Trump just got his lowest ratings ever, and last time it took a pandemic, a crippled economy, and a million dead Americans to reach this point.

    His acceleration tactic seems to be potentially backfiring. His intention to start wars is his solution, but I’m not sure that will work considering how much he’s fucked up everyone’s everyday lives. The record-high job losses, the skyrocketing price of goods, the housing costs, loan rates, and rent prices…

    He doesn’t have the intelligence to fix this. And as it gets worse, so too will public opinion. He’s at a 63% disapproval rating right now. And this was before the news about the Epstein files being “far worse” for Trump came from The Department of Justice.

    The craziest whacko republican in the senate is now openly flipping on Trump to get those files released. The shutdown is preventing this, and now nearly 42 million Americans are about to be impacted by Trump and the GOP Supreme Court deliberately shutting down their food money.
