Every senator who voted to confirm RFK Jr owns this tragedy. Every single one.
But like all moves by this administration, the wealthy will benefit while the poor are used as cannon fodder.
We will likely be at war within the week. It won't stop a single election. It won't distract from the Epstein files or the many other horrors going on in our country. It's just going to get a bunch more people killed.

Jeffrey Bezos is destroying the Washington Post for the same reason Musk destroyed Twitter and Ellison is destroying CBSβoligarchs oppose the free press when if it threatens their wealth and power.
They donβt want normal people to see what is happening in America.
On Martin Luther King Jr. Day, let us all reflect on responsibility, restraint, and what leadership demands when the stakes are this high.

We need true representation in our congressional district. Langworthy doesnβt come close to providing this representation. He obviously doesnβt care about constituentsβ needs. Time for a change. Time for Aaron Gies for Congress.
Yesterday, 12/17/2025, a last-minute bipartisan effort to save our health care failed in the House by one vote.
Nick Langworthy voted for skyrocketing premiums and shuttered hospitals.
We cannot afford this.
The so called law and order party has become the pardon every criminal who can afford to pay party.

Authoritarianism can only succeed when democracy fails to deliver for working people.
Authoritarian parties can only succeed when the pro-democracy parties fail to fight for working people.
We need a new democracy and a new party system which can represent working people.
Shutting down the government is a big deal. People have been hurt in big ways as a result of the decision. To have that suffering be for nothingβto re-open the government without actually having protected peopleβs health insurance and economic well-beingβis unconscionable.
This deal to reopen the government is fucking disgraceful.
Tens of millions will lose their healthcare. Trump will be emboldened.

The American people need more from their leaders.
"... a government shutdown is the easiest crisis in Washington to solve... [but] chaos is leverage.
And leverage is power.
And power is the only languageβ¦Trump and his orbit care about."
This right here.
Many food banks appreciate cash donations. It allows them to purchase needed food wholesale.
Welch: "This has nothing to do with the shutdown. The law requires and the funds are available to continue SNAP right now without any interruption. So that is a decision the president is making on his own to allow people to go hungry."
The White House is asking people not to share pictures of the East Wing because itβs even worse today.
Exactly
Tim Walz: "It's almost unimaginable that he's got Milei in there, giving him $20 billion, so that they can undercut us and China can buy their soybeans from them. And now China has learned they can replace our markets."
How much treason is too much?
