We should mandate a work requirement for House Republicans to get their health care. How about they have to work at least one week a month to keep their government health insurance?

THIS guy. Go Maine!

“These poor women.” Marge making even more sense with Tim Dillon on Congress failing to address the cost of living/health care prices… and the truth about what’s really in the Epstein files. #TrumpEpsteinCoverup Full: www.instagram.com/reel/DPsYFQ-...

@sanders.senate.gov: "No, Speaker Johnson, the #NoKings Rally on October 18th is not a 'hate America' rally. ... It’s a rally of millions of people who believe in American freedom and are not going to allow you and President Trump to turn us into an authoritarian country."

"We have to engage in this moment with the ruthless survival skills of an LGBTQ kid in Florida or in North Dakota who does not have the luxury of prioritizing purity and perfection over goodwill and good intentions." @mcbride.house.gov joins @sarahlongwell25.bsky.social:

Congrats, MAGA, you’ve owned the Libs—and all it’s cost you is a functioning government, a working democracy, human rights, national peace, economic stability, affordable groceries, affordable healthcare, qualified leaders, and global standing. johnpavlovitz.substack.com/p/congratula...

-$33 BILLION in military aid over 2 years -$45 MILLION every day -$144/month per every 🇮🇱 citizen from 🇺🇸 As 🇮🇱 has free health care, free college, subsidized child care… and we do not. Study: costsofwar.watson.brown.edu/paper/AidToI...

Is there a better indication of how superficial and unhelpful mainstream media has become than that they are cutely musing about whether the domestic terrorist who changed "The Department of Defense" to "The Department of War" will get a Nobel Peace Prize—instead of reporting the fascism/terrorism.

They’re stripping your rights one by one, and every time, they wave migrants around like a boogeyman. Next thing you know, your rights are gone, your crops rot in the field, your job’s gone, your healthcare’s gone, all stolen through fear. When will you wake up?

So cool that whenever someone asks the president, “did you eat the Lindbergh baby” he’s like, “no but I’d be allowed to, I have the right to, I might do it later”

Gee, big surprise that the interwebs lost it's fucking mind over nothing...

“Bullsh*t max reached” (H/T @gavinnewsom.bsky.social )

Umm. Yes

I’m sorry but the fact that this is not everywhere is kind of malpractice

This is from Marge Greene. You know who has been warning about this for months? Democrats. But the people who had no plan to deal with this crisis and still don’t want you to believe this is about “illegals.”

This is great. The absurdity of this moment captured. Make it go viral.

If you live in Rep. Brian Mast's (R-FL) district, buckle up. Your costs are about to skyrocket if Republicans don't extend the health care tax credits.

Here's what costs will look like for constituents of Chip Roy (R-TX):

Letting the health care tax credits expire would devastate American families — and we’re making that crystal clear by giving you the data. We’ve built graphics showing how much costs would rise in every GOP district. Let’s start with Mike Johnson (R-LA):

#bernie and #AOC today

These fuckin’ guys

If Joe Biden’s “spiritual advisor” had pleaded guilty to sexually abusing a 12 year old girl, Fox would be playing that shit on a loop 24/7.

Hilarious

G. Elliott Morris pieces on polling in his Substack are interesting and heartening for those of us in the opposition. I'm hanging on this glimmer of hope:)

I’m on Medicare and for 2026 my part B premiums are up about 15-20%. Supplement plan up 20% and Part D (drug plan) up 150%!!! Premiums going up for private health insurance at least 20% and then losing subsidies will mean HUGE increases for everyone, even with employer provided insurance.

.@morganevelyncook on TikTok is trying to figure out why Trump is sending troops to Portland, Oregon, and her video is the greatest thing ever 🤣

This is bullshit...

A glimmer of hope? Dare I believe it?

A bus of Bronx middle schoolers pulled up to the Capitol this morning for a long-planned field trip just a few hours after the government shut down. All Capitol tours were cancelled as the guides can’t work in shutdown. So I escorted them in myself and gave them a personal tour. They were great!

In case you missed this...share it far and wide. We have to start talking about Trump's OBVIOUS cognitive decline. Yesterday's speech should be Trump's "Biden debate performance" moment.

Lawrence O’Donnell’s monologue tonight: Trump is ‘not well’ and deranged. Military commanders know it.

Real talk...MORE OF THIS!

Me and a few other liberals -- Barry Lynn jumps to mind -- have been encouraging the Democrats to speak this language, the language of liberty and justice for all. Freedom needs to color every word they use.

This. Spot on.

I got $50 says Schumer comes up with some last minute surrender to Trump and MAGA Congress...having said that, extending the deadline for a few weeks, will allow for millions of people see how much their health care premiums/costs are going up in next year....and it's a LOT.

1. More Americans work at the Cheesecake Factory than in the entire coal industry, and that won't change. It's because of automation, not snooty libs. 2. Coal energy is now more expensive than wind and solar. 3. So this means: higher energy prices, more pollution, no jobs benefit. Genius!

Dems need to make the case that health insurance is about to become unaffordable to MILLIONS of Americans, thanks to the expiration of ACA subsidies on 12/31/25. They are NOT CLEARLY spelling out this catastrophe, AS USUAL. Jeffries and Schumer are shitty, terrible messengers.

💀💀💀💀💀

hey, remember when Kamala Harris warned everyone that Trump would use the military on us, and the press was all "shut up, laughing lady, prove you worked at McDonald's"? that was fun, wasn't it

Officially a tyrant: Trump announced Saturday that he will send troops to Portland, Oregon, and to immigration detention facilities around the country, authorizing “Full Force, if necessary” www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

I ❤️ @mattbelloni.bsky.social for this. The ethics of Hollywood are basement level. Same for tech (see below a column I wrote in 2019).

Funny, sweet, gracious and important...he was blacked out by my backward, un-American ABC affiliate owned by Sinclair...

Farnoush is an AP UN correspondent. Dan is a former White House speechwriter. newrepublic.com/post/200833/...

THIS is the Dem message. Can they manage to convey it?

WINNING!!!!!!!!!!!!
