This is how Dems reward their voters LESS THAN A WEEK after a totally dominant electoral sweep. I know I shouldn't be shocked anymore, but this is genuinely unbelievable. Pathetic, selfish, stupid little piggies.

Senators on the brink of retirement who lived full, wealthy lives and never feared the loss of their own healthcare voting for their constituents to die from their inability to afford the same is treasonous

A betrayal hurts more than a known enemy's attack.
Republicans never stopped labeling this a Dem shutdown and the Senate Dems just confirmed that narrative for them.

If Dems had waited a couple days for SCOTUS to rule Trump is King, then the narrative of conservatives are the enemy on all levels would have proven out.
Now? They jumped on a failure that polling showed belonged to Republicans. For what? For who?

Truly amazing that any time the democrats have to bite the bullet and do something that ruins countless lives, there's always *just* enough votes to get it done, but if there is a vote on something that would actually improve people's lives, they are always one vote short. Crazy how that happens.

Republicans are starting to talk about HSAs again so I want everyone to be super clear what a non-solution HSAs are. They work for a very limited range of people. If you have under $100/mo health costs, or tens of thousands of dollars a year, they can work. Have moderate ongoing costs? You're fucked

i think this is key. taking the deal would amount to taking the blame. it would turn a clear political victory into an unambiguous defeat.
If the Dems blink after all of this, for a deal that all but ensures no ACA subsidies in 2026 anyway, then what was the purpose of letting the shutdown go for 40 days in the first place?

Yeah, I'm sorry, but you do not keep the government shut for more than a month and then NOT get a deal on the main item you have been messaging on without completely shifting the blame dynamic.
Major concession from Democrats here is enhanced ACA funds aren’t extended. Preserving them was Dems’ central demand in this fight. They secured a promise of a vote (which Thune has been offering for weeks), but that could still fail. Even if it passes, Johnson has made no promise of a House vote.
Tentative Senate deal to end shutdown, multiple sources tell me & @frankthorp.bsky.social:
—CR through Jan 30
—Approps minibus
—Fully funds SNAP
—Reverses Trump’s shutdown RIFs
—Promise of Senate vote on ACA subsidies by Dec second week (details/outcome uncertain)
—Led by King/Shaheen/Hassan

This is really good to see: Miki Sherrill just put out a statement sharply criticizing the Senate Dems' pending cave in the government shutdown, ripping it as "malpractice" and a betrayal of the people who are "counting on us to fight for them." Sherrill knows what drove her victory. Wake up, Dems.
