Good morning.

The government is shut down because Trump wants to act like a king and steal from you.

Democrats have no obligation to support a budget that funds the destruction of our democracy - and DOUBLES health premiums to fund a tax cut for billionaires.

Let’s be clear: Donald Trump and Congressional Republicans forced a government shutdown tonight.

Rather than address the health care crisis that they created just earlier this year, they refuse to come to the table and do their jobs.

What happened to the art of the deal?

The people are united, and support our Federal Workers as well.

This shutdown can roll right into a general strike.

Enough is enough.

We want our democracy back.

Trump leaked this story because he wants to you hear it. Let’s be clear :: Trump wants you to blame a shutdown for shit he is planning to do anyhow. If dems cave and fund him, he will STILL wield executive power and slash government programs. He HAS BEEN doing that with the government open.

Voting isn't the only thing that matters if we want to keep our democracy, but voting matters! Make sure not to vote for tyrants and dictators or dictators toadies in any of the upcoming elections between now and 2028!

Newsom: "I fear that we will not have an election in 2028 -- I really mean that in the core of my soul -- unless we wake up to the code red, what's happening in this country, and we wake up soberly to how serious this moment is."

The government threatening to remove a network’s broadcast licenses just because the President doesn’t like its content is state censorship.

When Trump and his FCC cronies make these threats, what they’re really attacking is Americans’ 1st Amendment right to free speech and a free press.

Americans are subject to a patchwork of state rules on who qualifies for the Covid vaccine, as right-wing legislators & governors race to reduce access to vaccination.

For a growing share of people in the US, that leaves crossing state lines as the best option to get the updated vaccine.
Welcome to the new era of Covid vaccine tourism
Trump and RFK Jr.'s anti-vax crackdown is driving Americans across state lines—and making some pay out of pocket.
