Ok in order to streamline the sporadic nature of everyone from #Palestine who follows me posting on various comments threads asking for signal boosts I am going to do this: once every few days I will make a thread and pin it to my page. All my Palestinian comrades who need assistance may reply. 🇵🇸

Alderman Sigcho-Lopez was right to call out Pritzker today about the state police arresting protesters. Pritzker responded that the state police are protecting protesters, and that just isn't true. State cops have arrested and brutalized protesters to facilitate ICE operations. That's reality.

Rick Scott was CEO of a large, for-profit healthcare company called HCA. While Rick Scott was CEO, HCA stole so much money from Medicare they were fined $1.7 Billion.
Rick Scott told me his plan would be to take all of the remaining ACA subsidies and redistribute them to HSA accounts and people can then buy whatever insurance a state certifies. Basically a repeal/replace.
He denied when I asked wouldn’t that create two-tiered system where sick pay much more…

The fact him or one of his staffers would post this on *this* platform is yet another sign of how unfit this man is to do anything other than retire.
Democrats have been fighting for months to address America's healthcare crisis
For the millions who will lose coverage
For people with cancer who won't get the care they need
For working families who can't afford to pay $25K more a year for healthcare
We will keep fighting

Please stop saying, "but Schumer voted no!"
This isn't how the Senate works. They had a conference this week where evidently there were enough Dems who wanted to fold. So they needed exactly 7 to take the hit, and chose the ones who are retiring or not up for reelection next year.

This deal to reopen the government is fucking disgraceful.
Tens of millions will lose their healthcare. Trump will be emboldened.
This is exactly what’s wrong with Democratic Party leadership and why we need more people in Congress who will actually hold the line.

It's well past time to abolish the racist institution that is the United States Senate. The land could be better put to use expanding the House of Representatives. Or as a garbage dump.

Ok, here is why this Alt is pissed off.
They got a promise, pinky swear, from the GOP (known liars) on a vote 40 days from now on the subsidies. After the subsidies have expired, after the rates are locked.
40 day from now, meaning there isn't going to be any ACA help for 2026.

The politics of the shutdown:
*GOP had a strong opening position
*Undercut themselves with the RIFs and unnecessary cuts to blue states/SNAP
*Polls showed GOP getting most of the blame, no reason to assume that would change
*Dem centrists then folded on their key issue of ACA subsidies

Apparently, it is negotiable!
Health care isn’t negotiable.
We need to both reopen the government and work together to protect access to affordable health care by extending the ACA enhanced premium tax credits.

Millions of Americans went without a paycheque.
Millions more went without SNAP & endured the trauma of not knowing where their next meal would come from.
They suffered because healthcare is worth fighting for.
They rewarded the Dems with a blue wave and Schumer just ensured it was for nothing

If you can’t pay, die
