BERNIE: “This senate is about to make a horrific situation even worse… health insurance premiums will double/triple/quadruple… some will pay 50% of their income… 15 million will lose insurance… 50,000 will die unnecessarily…” #MedicareForAllNOW

Pay attention to what Democratic candidates are saying right now. Find and support the fighters. Having a spine must be a litmus test issue in 2026 and beyond.

Sanders: Let’s be clear… If this vote succeeds, over 20 million Americans are going to see at least a doubling in their premiums… if resolution is passed tonight, we are on a path way to throw 15 million Americans off of medicaid and the affordable care act, 15 million.

The corruption never ends

Tonight’s Senate vote on the federal government shutdown should have been a time for strength. Instead we saw capitulation and a betrayal of working Americans. The American people need more from their leaders.

An agreement to agree to do a later vote is NOT an enforceable contract so what in the actual hell are Americans getting out of this deal??

“This was a very very bad vote”

Sanders: That is a totally meaningless gesture. You can get 100 votes here and it won't mean anything because the House is not going to take it up.

This is really good to see: Miki Sherrill just put out a statement sharply criticizing the Senate Dems' pending cave in the government shutdown, ripping it as "malpractice" and a betrayal of the people who are "counting on us to fight for them." Sherrill knows what drove her victory. Wake up, Dems.

My family has been without half our income for 40 days. It has been.. very hard. We are willing to feel that pain so people can have health care next year, or to undo these illegal recissions. We are not willing to have been put through this for NOTHING.

Senators on the brink of retirement who lived full, wealthy lives and never feared the loss of their own healthcare voting for their constituents to die from their inability to afford the same is treasonous

A whole other form of partial and political justice. Trump pardons list of allies who worked to reverse his election loss in 2020. Many of them, especially Mark Meadows, know where the bodies are buried. A vile miscarriage of justice. Includes Rudy, Sidney Powell, John Eastman, & Ken Cheseboro.

This is brutal. Fox forgot to edit all the booing at the Washington Commanders game.

Giuliani, Eastman, Cheseboro, and Powell are all unindicted co-conspirators in Trump indictment for the election crimes. Smith kept them off to streamline the case, with it always seemed future plans to indict. A total whitewash. Possibility remains of state charges, esp in Georgia. What a travesty.

The average SNAP benefit per month is $177 a person. The average ACA benefit per month is up to $550 a person. People want us to hold the line for a reason. This is not a matter of appealing to a base. It’s about people’s lives. And working people want leaders whose word means something to them.

Trump and Hegseth booed mercilessly for 2 minutes straight tonight by Washington Commanders fans.

The American people absolutely deserve and need healthcare. 💯

Tonight was a very bad night.

Casual reminder that the myth of “pulling yourself up by your bootstraps” is a cruel hoax designed to convince poor people from all walks of life that the injustices they face are a result of their own actions, rather than an oppressive system rigged against them.

Friends — the last nine and a half months have been frightening. But they have also opened our eyes.

BREAKING: I GOT MY SNAP BENEFITS. (NYC HERE) CHECK YOUR EBT CARDS AND PLEASE REPORT BACK!!!!!

7 states (Oregon was one of them) rushed to get funds to EBT cards after the Rhode Island judge's ruling...which means 43 states did not, per local news channel.

I got mine last week. Yay California!

Well whether it’s been funded or not @governor.ny.gov has released the funds👇🏼👇🏼 otda.ny.gov/snap-benefit...:

Floriduh nope

Let’s note these are BLUE states.

God, of course they are. The most vile, despicable evil people imaginable.

They’re now, accd to NYT trying to demand states take the benefits back. www.nytimes.com/2025/11/09/b...

A man rushed to the Broadview ICE facility searching for his wife. They followed every legal step, but ICE took her into another room and she vanished. He tracked her phone there when the signal died. Police told him to “look up her name online.” He sat in the parking lot, weeping, with no answers.

For only $40 billion, you can have this clown, Javier Milei, dance at your private club while laughing at the rest of America.

Bezos keeping Blue Origin Mars launch mostly out of news. This should be a big deal for company with big celebration, but it's barely mentioned across MSM with exception of a few small "how to watch" type articles. Not a good look to be launching to Mars during a shutdown when kids can't even eat.

Groceries saw their biggest jump in nearly three years last month, a worrisome sign for inflation-weary shoppers. Tariffs are contributing to higher prices for imported staples like bananas and coffee.

Clips like this are political gold

Gavin Newsom just hit Trump with his most brutal jab yet—calling him “The Nodfather.” 😴🎬👇

Being on SNAP benefits for 17 years, I've NEVER been told I wouldn't be paid my benefits. NEVER. What is going on is BEYOND cruel. The ppl w/disabilities, ppl w/chronic illnesses & cancer, seniors already isolated, the 16M hh's w/children. WE REFUSE TO BE A NUMBER. WE ARE PEOPLE. WE DESERVE DIGNITY.

The GOP is petrified of Zohran Mamdani because they know once democratic socialism works here, as it has in Norway, Sweden, Denmark, and Finland, they will never be elected again.
