Feds slash the budget for program that helped 65,000 Texans enroll for health insurance

Congress should be working— not waiting at home — to end the shutdown. Health insurance for millions of Americans is on the line. I’m back in D.C. ready for bipartisan negotiations.

Kudos to dozens of airports across the country that are refusing to play state propaganda.

Here’s why you were barraged with spam today.

If you can’t sell your soybeans because of Trump’s tariffs after Argentina stepped in and took your customers, you can take solace that the guy you voted for also just gave $20 billion of your tax dollars to the country that is bankrupting you.

ICE on Walgreens Property in Chicago grabbing another BLACK citizen! This isn’t about deporting criminals.

Her name is Emily Wilson. I'm old enough to remember when admitting you're a Nazi was probably a career-ending mistake. Now, in 2025, it's merely an admission that you support Trump. 😳👇

This isn’t a peace plan. It’s a ceasefire. Why is the media calling it a peace plan?

Good. Even if this doesn’t work, it’s time to go on offense. www.newsweek.com/jb-pritzker-...

Seems the Narcissist-in-Chief is mad about the Time Mag cover neckgina pic so please don’t share it widely Thank you for your attention to this matter

Apparently, they don’t hand out a Nobel Peace Prize to those who negotiated a ceasefire they had sabotaged a year ago just to get elected.

These Republicons will be forever remembered for caving to the POTUS (Pedophile of the United States)!

We should charge them a $1,000 a day until they are back working!

The entire incident is infuriating and terrifying. She’s a Latina woman who was working a service job. On her way home late at night, with her headphones in, she was detained for an hour by masked federal agents who wouldn’t give her their names.

🚨MAJOR BREAKING: Rep-Elect Adelita Grijalva announces her election results will be OFFICIALLY certified tomorrow, destroying Mike Johnson’s last excuse to delay her swearing in. “Mike Johnson needs to do his job so I can do mine.” No more lies. No more delays. Swear her in!

Anyone saying they’re not racially profiling is unserious

ITALIAN PM GIORGIA MELONI COULDN'T GET AWAY FAST ENOUGH.

We’re in the second Gilded Age just like the first — when America’s wealth was in the hands of a few, money corrupted politics, and working people were abused and exploited. It can be easy to feel discouraged, but the first Gilded Age teaches us lessons on how we can fight back.

It’s become crystal clear, Speaker Johnson doesn’t want Congress to come back in session because they don’t want the Epstein files released. Stop the shutdown - release the files!

You know they’re worried about this weekend’s turnout at the No Kings rally when they’re already making comments about it. Who’s ready for Saturday?

"Support the troops, y'all!"

New York Times, AP, Newsmax among news outlets who say they won't sign new Pentagon rules Republicans are opposed to the First Amendment. Any questions???? Dictatorships don’t like free speech. flip.it/IAiwfU

Obama: "When you see an administration suggest that ordinary street crime is an insurrection or a terrorist act, that is a genuine effort to weaken how we have understood democracy."

I can’t help but think today about how many young people were savaged on social media, branded as anti-semites and abandoned by their schools for daring to call for a ceasefire. I remember saying that it was the first time I can remember that calling for ceasefire was regarded as a hostile demand.

Things to do in the future: 1. Putting them all on trial for crimes against humanity at the Hague 2. Totally reforming entire government to root out corruption and abuse of power so this bullshit never happens again 3. At some point you’d imagine, brunch

The Portland Frog army has now infiltrated Tulsa, OK and they’ve made an unlikely alliance with the T-Rex infantry and Sharks on Hoverboards mercenary forces. This is truly terrifying.

Boo hoo! I tried to overthrow the government and now nobody wants to work with me.

But we cant have healthcare. bsky.app/profile/atru...

Vaccines are safe and effective. Autism isn't caused by vaccines, and autistic people and their families deserve our support. When you want information, ask your doctor. It's more important than ever for all of us to speak plainly, truthfully, and directly about public health.

REPORTER: Do you support repealing Obamacare and what's your healthcare plan? MIKE JOHNSON: We worked on repealing and replacing Obamacare back in 2017. I still have PTSD from the experience. We know that American healthcare needs dramatic reform. We have lots of ideas. (So, no plan)

Imagine making six figures to not do anything you were entrusted to do. …getting paid to not work while thousands of civil servants around you were getting fired. …betraying those who counted on you to represent them, all to appease a wannabe dictator. The GOP Congress is a helluva thing.

Solidarity is the only way

When they tell you they plan on throwing out the constitution, believe them.

I'm so depressed for Americans, they have allowed an oligarchy to destroy their country, while they sleepwalk, arguing about semantics.
