Trump threatened lawmakers — specifically six veterans-turned-lawmakers — for telling our troops to follow the constitution.
It’s on us to demand every elected official condemn his calls for political violence.

Never forget this: The forces rigging our economy, undermining our democracy, polluting our planet, and stoking hatred are counting on you to give up. Cynicism is how they win. Stay clear-eyed and ready for the fight ahead.

Until now I thought this so-called “peace proposal” was just another Russian info-op. Turns out it’s real and it’s pure capitulation. 🚫 Written by non-diplomats, it hands Putin a veto over #NATO and demands Ukraine give up territory he couldn’t conquer in four years of war. Why reward aggression?

10/ One day pro-Ukraine sanctions, the next day retreat. We’ve seen this before - envoys arriving in Kyiv pushing exploitative deals that look more like colonial extraction than partnership. But here’s the key point:
The plan is irrelevant.

6/ It includes lines about the US getting more money while Europe pays for everything. A diplomatic insult, and some European politicians already said as much. Zelensky made his answer clear today: Ukraine cannot accept this plan.

He could call on congressional Republicans right now to reopen the government.
Get people in a room. Stay there until a deal is done. Reopen the government and protect healthcare.

5. Every day this shutdown goes on, it gets more painful for people.
1.4 million Americans missed paychecks last month – air traffic controllers, Social Security staff, IRS employees.
If Congress doesn’t act by November 15, that’s another missed paycheck.

4. They’re helping the super-wealthy – not you.
Trump is building a ballroom funded by billionaires and wants to send $40 billion to his buddy in Argentina.
At the same time, he won’t fully fund food assistance or extend tax credits that make healthcare affordable.

2. How we got here:
Republicans wanted a short-term bill to keep the government open until November 21.
Democrats said fine – but only if you extend the healthcare tax credits 24 million Americans rely on.
Trump told them not to work with us. Now we’re in day 36 of a shutdown.

1. This is a fight over healthcare.
At the end of the year, if Congress doesn’t act, 24 million Americans will see their healthcare costs skyrocket – on average doubling every month.

If Secretary Noem thinks the Coast Guard needs modernization, she should start with the vessels and rescue gear that save lives, not a flying five-star hotel to help herself travel in style.
Because that’s not public service, it’s self-serving corruption.

If Republicans fail to save healthcare:
Nearly 300,000 people in Massachusetts will face higher premiums and over 400,000 will lose healthcare entirely.
Trump & Republicans are making people sicker & more vulnerable.
They must reopen the govt & address this healthcare crisis.
