Thou shalt not shut down your entire government just to protect billionaire pedophiles.

Won’t be posting much tonight, in the meantime here’s another great Hirschfeld caricature:

Tried to look at the US Constitution at the National Archive site and got this message:

Why would Democrats throw our support behind a budget deal that any day, any time, Donald Trump could just decide he doesn’t feel like honoring — and without getting anything in return to help families struggling with high costs? That would be a betrayal of the American people.

This current American presidential administration is run by people who are quite obviously mentally ill, and we need to start talking about that.

Real Estate: Window Ajar

Under Donald Trump, 688 prescription drugs have gotten MORE EXPENSIVE. And last night, he shut down the government to avoid lowering Americans’ health care costs. Donald Trump is making your life more expensive.

The Republican shutdown means clinical trials will stop enrolling new patients for life-saving treatment. But, hey, at least construction on Donald Trump's golden ballroom for his billionaire buddies will continue.

JD Vance straight-up lied about Dems wanting health care for illegals. They are barred from the medical assistance orgs.

Hard to blame the Democrats for the shutdown when you're in charge of all 3 branches of government, plus the Supreme Court.

Letting AI control parents sounds like a bad idea.

I was sent this by a Georgian this morning. 2025 premiums vs 2026 premiums for someone making $65k a year. Republicans in Washington did this. This is what I'm fighting to stop. This is what’s at stake in this shutdown fight.

Then why are you providing a $20 billion bailout to Argentina and helping them cut deals with China that crush American soybean farmers?

Republicans control the White House and Congress, but they shut down the government, meaning: Delays for seniors applying for Social Security. Veterans waiting longer for benefits they deserve. Hospitals won't get reimbursements they depend on. Families risk losing food and family supports.

Americans show up every day and do their job — they expect their leaders to do the same. Donald Trump and Republicans need to get the government back to work.

"A beautiful celebration of life." From the hearts & souls of Mike Flanagan & Stephen King, THE LIFE OF CHUCK returns to theaters October 1st for 1-night-only nationwide screenings, w/ a special conversation with director Mike Flanagan and actor Mark Hamill. Get tickets now at thelifeofchuck.film

Easily, his most elaborate and destructive distraction from #TheEPSEIN_Files... yet.

It’s midnight, which means Trump’s government just ran out of money. Our entire government is shut down because Republicans in power refuse to lower health care costs.

If things weren’t bad enough already, Republicans in control of Congress are shutting down the government. Why? Because Donald Trump opposes making health care more affordable for millions of Americans.

Love this movie, highly recommend 👍

Solar is the cheapest, fastest energy out there—and it should be powering Massachusetts. We used to lead, but states like Florida and Texas are moving faster. So I’m cutting red tape, creating jobs, and making it easier for families and businesses to benefit from affordable solar.

For students, the BRIGHT Act means cutting-edge learning spaces to get them ready for today’s careers. For workers, it means 20,000 good construction jobs like the ones at UMass Dartmouth. Bottom line: the BRIGHT Act is an investment in our economy and our future.

Sending thoughts & prayers to the war-ravaged city of Portland, Oregon now under siege from attack by Antifa & other domestic terrorists. Take solace in dear leader's words: "Nothing bad can happen. It can only good happen." (and "DON'T TAKE TYLENOL"). Let the healing begin...

After a nine-day trial, a federal court ruled that Noem and Rubio misused their power to target international students for their protected political speech. When a government retaliates against individuals based on their words, we must ring the alarm bells loudly.

Donald Trump should listen to Donald Trump. He owns this shutdown.

Your health care premiums could MORE THAN DOUBLE thanks to Donald Trump. That’s the health care affordability crisis that Democrats are fighting to fix.

Stress-Free Eric Adams Spends Day Bribing Pigeons In Central Park

Donald Trump and his lapdog GOP Congress are so against lowering health care costs that they're instead shutting down the federal government. Food assistance thrown into jeopardy. Troops going without pay. Essential services shuttered. This is how MAGA treats our country.
