One woman’s premiums are about to explode 345% in January without ACA subsidies — not just a financial death sentence, but a literal one for anyone who can’t afford care. This is Trump’s America: go broke or go without. Cruelty is the point. #TrumpInflationCrisis #USDemocracy #MomSky
Maybe Hegseth and Trump could also send 500 National Guard members to Kentucky, to help administer pertussis vaccines.
Since saving lives is their thing.

I'm tired of responding to bad-faith MAGA outrage, which always distracts corporate media, centrists, & those who feel they must indulge their temper tantrums.
They're blaming all of us now for the National Guard shooting.
Just say:
"Fuck Off, Release the Epstein Files, and Happy Thanksgiving."
NEW: The two shot National Guard troops never should have been in DC. More troops is no answer.
The violence is horrible and unacceptable. Trump, Pete Hegseth, and West Virginia Gov. Patrick Morrisey never should have put the troops in this position.
Tonight, at Law Dork:
No idea why an Afghan refugee shot National Guard soldiers within walking distance of the White House, but this new USCIS directive was revealed on Monday. Worth noting.
The FBI redirected lots of agents to work on deporting people who came to the U.S. illegally, but who were not involved in separate criminal activity.
Perhaps if they'd been working on terrorism and violence cases, the two National Guard agents would not have been shot.
Military families on day 9 of the shutdown lining up at the food bank
Trump is the abusive spouse. Here's what he'll do: Hold back SNAP payments, food assistance, so 4 million people, families, children, the elderly & disabled, vets & military, will go hungry. Then he'll swoop in and restore it as if HE PERSONALLY is giving them food, feeding them himself like a god.
Our military families shouldn’t suffer because the House GOP won't do their job.
One Marine Corps family from my district is now without pay during this shutdown — their only income frozen.
Stories like these remind us of the stakes of this shutdown. Those who serve our nation deserve better.
DOD civilians at home and abroad, many of whom are veterans or military family members, say morale is low and falling fast as the government shutdown drags on leaving them without pay. And for many, the shutdown was one more burden in a year of
TOP TRUMP OFFICIALS ARE HIDING INSIDE MILITARY BASES - SOMETHING BIG IS COMING. Multiple senior Trump officials have quietly relocated into military housing around Washington, D.C., citing "concerns for their personal safety." According to The Atlantic: Stephen Miller and his family reportedly fled.
November is Military Family Month – a time to share the stories and honor the sacrifices of our military families stationed across the world.
To my fellow vets: this is what we swore to defend against.
The President is making up a "rebellion" to use Title 10 and turn soldiers against civilians in the U.S.
We must stand with Portland and demand our brothers and sisters in the Guard are not used this way.

The country we served now has a plan to deport over 100,000 non-citizen veterans.
These are our brothers and sisters.
They served in Iraq and Afghanistan.
Now, they are afraid that they will be abandoned.
This is a profound betrayal of everyone who took the oath.

We can't just call #veterans "heroes" and then abandon them to their trauma.
Untreated #PTSD, moral injury, and #TBI are a public health crisis.
This shooting is a horrific symptom of that failure.
Thoughts and prayers are a coward's excuse for inaction.

$20 billion for a right-wing ally's election "bridge" while our own bridges and vets crumble here at home.
This isn't aid; it's a political slush fund.
From Iraq to Argentina, the playbook is the same:back the favored strongman, ignore the suffering of the people.

No matter the target or ideology, political violence is never acceptable.
This anger isn't just about a bullet. #CharlieKirk #MAGAViolence
It's about the system they built on lies and hate, which was always going to lead to this.
Now, they want to finish the job.
Trump’s call to “beat the hell” out of his opponents is not leadership;
it’s incitement. We need de-escalation, not escalation.
We need unity, not division.
We must not allow this tragedy to be used as justification for more violence. #CharlieKirk
To my fellow veterans
We fought for a country that is now debating whether to kill homeless people instead of helping them.
This is a betrayal of our service.
Hold policymakers accountable!
Support housing, healthcare, and humanity.
#LeftVeterans #SolidarityNotSavagery
My guess here is less that he developed some compassion for vulnerable people than that it was pointed out to him that homelessness is a big problem with white veterans many of whom are conservative. Hard to wave the flag and say support the troops and simultaneously suggest they should be murdered
“If you can’t honor a man by quoting him directly because his own words seem disparaging to his legacy, then perhaps you shouldn’t try to honor him at all.” Watch my latest here: www.youtube.com/live/2Mv50KZ...
Charlie Kirk built his movement by demonizing others. #PoliticalViolence #CharlieKirk
However, his assassination was a horrific act that we must unequivocally condemn.
However, we must also condemn the hypocrisy of those who exploit his death to incite violence against the left.
#CharlieKirk’s tragic death reminds us that violence has no place in our democracy.
Let's honor his memory by recommitting to respectful debate and rejecting all forms of extremism. #Democracy
The same people who cheered when a teenager opened fire at a Black Lives Matter protest are now crying "political violence" because the monster they created has turned on them.
we mourn the loss of life, but not the ideology.
My solidarity is with those he marginalized. #CharlieKirk
A National Guard report accidentally emailed to the Post says veterans and active-duty troops view the D.C. deployment with "shame and alarm" @alexhorton.bsky.social www.washingtonpost.com/national-sec...
The FBI’s changing statements about the suspect have fueled confusion and conspiracy theories.
This investigation requires transparency and accountability, not politicization.
Justice must be served based on facts, not partisan agendas.

The White House attacks museums for ‘divisive’ history while its VP erases factual history.
WWII ended through total victory—not negotiation—and began with fascist invasions like Japan’s in 1931.
This isn’t diplomacy; it’s betrayal.
#DefendTruth #StopFascism
For 80 years, his Purple Heart—a symbol of unimaginable sacrifice—gathered dust.
While politicians send young men to fight their wars, the real heroes are forgotten.
Stephen Grabowski survived a grenade blast only to be buried by bureaucracy.
