Imagine knowing – being absolutely sure – that when you die, 65 or 70% of the country and the world will celebrate your death like nothing they've ever celebrated anything before.

The GOP CRIMINAL ENTERPRISE DOES NOT WORK FOR THE USA! GOP MOBSTERS WORK FOR THEIR MOB!

At this late date, it seems strange to hear people talk as if the GOP TREASON is unusual! GOP cowards? NO! GOP CRIMINALS!

Government workers furloughed.
Veterans’ checks delayed.
National parks closed.
Trump didn’t “make America great again.”
He just shut it down — again.

He can fly private jets and host rallies, but millions of Americans can’t pay rent because of his tantrum in Washington.

When Trump doesn’t get his way, the country pays the price.

Trump & his Republicans own this shut down.
They will do anything but work with Democrats to keep healthcare costs down or release the Epstein files.

Can’t sleep. My amazing 25yo miracle son will undergo his 42nd surgery at 7:30am.

I won’t go into details, except to say:
💛 His medical team is excellent
🙏🏽 For the first time ever, our healthcare “insurance” was largely dependent on a GFM

No one should have to live this way.

💯%!

Our family is representative of millions of American families having to use alternative methods to pay for healthcare.

We’re also representative of millions of American families who know Democrats are the ones fighting for our healthcare!

Adelita Grijalva won her election fair and square.

Now House Speaker Mike Johnson is refusing to swear her in because she would be the final signature to release the Epstein files.

Mr. Speaker, respect democracy. Obey the law. Swear Representative Grijalva in immediately.

Anyone else remember that old SNL sketch in which Jon Lovitz is playing Michael Dukakis and Dana Carvey is playing George H.W. Bush and they're debating and in mid-debate Dukakis turns to the camera and says, "I can't believe I'm losing to this guy"?

Yeah, *that*
