Sanders: I am not a great fan of the affordable care act. I believe in medicare for all. I think that health care is a human right, but I will be damned if I'm going to see people in Vermont and around this country see a doubling in their premiums.

Furloughed Department of Education workers’ out-of-office emails were changed to blame Democrats for the shutdown without their permission.

Why is Trump resorting to such desperate, and likely illegal, tactics?

Because he knows that he’s the one to blame for this shutdown.

ICE is running around Chicago harassing people for not being white.

Just a year ago, that was illegal in the United States and now it’s commonplace.

That’s not making America great again.

Dems- don't engage "you want healthcare for undocumented immigrants." Reply with "The shutdown is for one reason only- to hide the Epstein evidence that is so damaging to the White House." Every interview, every comment, every time.

Those responsible for compiling the jobs report don’t have jobs anymore, hence there will be no jobs report this month.

Thank you for your attention to this matter.

For years we warned about this: The “Enabling Act of 1933”, which allowed Hitler to seize control of all branches of the German government, served as the template for “Project 2025” — and Trump’s DNA is all over it.

Federal agents reporting to Secretary Noem have spent weeks snatching up families, scaring law-abiding residents, violating due process rights, and even detaining U.S. citizens.

They fail to focus on violent criminals and instead create panic in our communities.
