Trump got the message from American voters, as evidenced by these posts.

Yes, @hillaryclinton.bsky.social, Nero would be proud.

Trump is weaponizing starvation. This cannot stand.

This is inhumane.

This is a national disgrace, done without any public input or the consent of the U.S. Congress. The work of a dictator unaccountable to anyone. Let's wake up Republicans in the Congress, or Trump will render the Congress useless.

Democrats are good for the economy!

If Congress lets enhanced premium tax credits expire, 4 million Americans will lose health coverage — including 1.1 million Black Americans. Healthcare isn’t a luxury. It’s a right.

Congress must act now to keep coverage affordable and protect every family’s care.

Republicans are lying that the ACA covers undocumented individuals.

It does not.

The ACA law states an “individual must be a citizen or national of the United States or an alien lawfully present in the United States” to purchase a plan. Democrats have not proposed any changes to that provision.

Rep. Robin Kelly (D-IL2) condemned Trump for sabotaging the $1.9 billion Red Line Extension project, falsely claiming the project's "race-based contracting."

The Red Line extension is slated to add four train stops on the city’s South Side, improving access for disadvantaged communities.

If Republicans don’t act now to extend enhanced premium tax credits, hundreds of thousands could lose health coverage and millions more will see premiums spike by as much as 114%. #TrumpShutdown #ShutdownDon
