If a U.S. family suddenly lost ACA health insurance subsidies and college financial aid while facing rising tariffs and living costs, the financial impact could be severe. Here's a concise breakdown of potential increases for a typical household: 🔄

This is why the
Democrats are fighting for you. Don't blame them for the shutdown because they have no power unless a vote is a filibuster. The Big Beautiful Bill wasn't a filibuster but this bill is.

75% of people who use the ACA are in states that Trump won. More than three in four—specifically, over 75%—of Affordable Care Act marketplace enrollees live in states that were won by Trump in the 2024 election. If they don’t extend it or make it permanent they are committing political suicide. 🔄

There are plenty of laws to keep certain things away from voting polls. Blue states should start thinking about laws that keep military away too. In my opinion and my concern, Trump wants people to get used to seeing the military so he could have them in voting polls to disrupt and intimidate people

One thing about seeing someone on the news on a daily basis is you pretty much can figure out someone’s mental state and cognitive abilities. Here’s the latest thing Trump said: he spoke to the president of Puerto Rico. In other words he talked to himself. Hope he had a good conversation. 🤣🔄

This is a real word. trumpery
It means : something without use or value; rubbish; trash; worthless stuff.

His usual conversation is pure trumpery.
Archaic., worthless finery.

Don’t you love it when a judge who Trump appointed cares more about the law than loyalty to Trump? If only Congress could grow a spine. Better yet, the GOP SCOTUS should grow one too. 🔄

The idea that Trump 'throws ketchup when he’s mad' became a popular anecdote and meme after former White House aide Cassidy Hutchinson testified to the January 6th Committee in 2022 that Trump allegedly threw his lunch, including ketchup, against the wall in anger following news coverage he disliked

The official announcement of the Nobel Peace Prize is scheduled to take place on Friday, October 10th, 2025 at 11:00 a.m. (Oslo time). Can the White House Staff please provide enough ketchup in the Oval Office. Thank you for your attention to this matter. 🤣🔄

Trump is the only modern US president who, while in office, has been documented golfing during a government shutdown. If you can’t figure out where his priorities are, you are definitely in a cult.

Attention: The U.S. is no longer rated a “full democracy” by many indexes. It is often classified as a “flawed democracy” or “electoral democracy with deficits.”

The politicisation of institutions, systematic barriers to representation, erosion of democratic norms, growing economic inequality, and the difficulty of reforming foundational structures like the Electoral College and Senate definitely makes it flawed.

Yes you’re right. But without the subsidies from ACA people’s insurance would more than double and that would happen first of the year.

🦋💔🇺🇸SEB🇺🇸💔🦋 @sebastiangarof5.bsky.social · 2d

What political fallout do you think the Republicans will face at midterms if 22M people lose their healthcare subsidies? In many ways, the Democrats are doing the idiots a favor. Imagine if the Democrats only made political decisions. People vote more about their pocketbooks than anything else.
