Beshear: Let me be clear. The president has both the funding and the authority to fund snap during a shutdown. In fact, every other president in every other shutdown has done so. People going hungry in this instance is a choice that this president has made.

The amount is meaningless — less than one day of salary. But the principle is important: once the armed services are paid by the oligarchs, they become a private militia, and we no longer have a country.

Congress, with Senate consent, staying perpetually adjourned to obstruct legally elected representation is a coup.

"The broader goal is the militarization of major cities before 2026 elections... Next year, I fear that what they're gonna do is deploy these folks to polling places & say they're protecting the vote. Trump knows without these breaches of the Constitution, he's gonna lose Congress." - Gov. Pritzker

We estimate that ACA marketplace enrollees will see their out-of-pocket premiums increase by 114% if enhanced tax credits are not extended. That translates to an average premium increase of $1,016 per enrollee.

This is Adelita Grijalva.
She was elected to Congress two weeks ago, officially making her the final vote needed to force the release of the Epstein files.
She has still not been sworn in because Mike Johnson refuses to do so.

AOC: I think there's two things that are happening at once: One, there absolutely is an unprecedented abuse of power, destruction of norms, erosion of our government and our democracy in order to prop up an authoritarian style of governance
However, they are weaker than they look…

Trump is absolutely cratering in new Quinnipiac poll:
Overall approval: 38-54
Approval on economy: 39-56
Approval on trade: 39-54
On National Guard into cities: 42-55
On immigration, his "best" issue: 41-55
Trump is weak, unpopular, and failing. Treat him that way:
Overall approval: 38-54
Approval on economy: 39-56

On National Guard into cities: 42-55
On immigration, his "best" issue: 41-55

Trump/MAGA are trying to gaslight us into believing that anti-Jimmy Kimmel America is vast and deep, that MAGA's grip on the culture is unshakable, that mobilization is futile.
But this episode has demonstrated the opposite. Let's not forget it.
