$1455? What a deal!

My 2026 Blue Shield is $1975/mo — wife’s is similar

~$46K per year for a couple

Plus deductibles ($2600 each)

And co-pays (up to $7K each out of pocket), non covered costs etc. —

All-in $50-$60K+

Most people w/employer-sponsored plans or ACA subsidies have NO idea

It's theater. The ones assigned to vote yes aren't running in 26. It's like pro wrestling, there are faces and heels. The heels take the heat off so everyone else can act shocked. The real reason was air travel disruption.

The GOP are the ones starving the Military, and shutting down Airports.

The DNC are just trying to ensure our healthcare isn't cut

The longer the government is shut down, the worse things get for the GOP

By ending the shutdown, they've essentially helped the GOP, without any actual concessions

Dems backed Trump into a corner where he’s advocating for starving Americans and hemorrhaging support. If they vote to let him off the hook in exchange for nothing it’s a cataclysmic failure. I know people are in pain but insulating Republicans from political consequences is not the answer.

This and the airline industry lobbyists are what did it. Not Americans starving and paying twice as much for healthcare.

I'm pretty sure it was the insurance industry but either way, it's always the money. With Crypto they can hide enormous bribes.

Weren't they charged with State crimes? His pardon has no authority over state level charges. So much for "States Rights".

"Democrats could have held the line on the shutdown, and spent weeks watching Trump’s approval ratings fall," writes @jonathanbchait.bsky.social

Senate Democrats need to hold the line. No healthcare, no deal.

Mainers want a Democratic Party that fights for them, not one that rolls over.

When we fight, we win.

Trump’s pardon attorney Ed Martin claims Trump is pardoning his Georgia co-defendants and other “alternate electors.”

Note: Trump’s Georgia co-defendants are charged under state law. The president can’t pardon people for state crimes.
