I hate this bill. It will ruin people's lives. BUT it should wake people up. Republicans have voted to take healthcare and food assistance from the needy to give tax breaks to the rich. They aren't owning the libs. They are feeding their own voters to the wolves.

They told us there was no money for healthcare.
No money for kids.
No money for families drowning in medical bills.

But there’s always money for ICE. More cages. More raids. More cruelty.

That’s not a budget problem. That’s a values problem.

Fund care, not punishment.

"Why are your Obamacare premiums going up? ICE. Why is the rural hospital in your town closing? ICE."

They are cutting services and support we need to be healthy to fund masked goons to terrorize our communities.

I grew up in Minneapolis and have been dumbfounded at the Administration's decision to make the Twin Cities their poster child for immigrant criminals. It is a vibrant community that takes care of each other.
The people of Minnesota have executed one of the most impressive civil resistance campaigns I can remember:

- Organized a city wide general strike
- Maintained nonviolent discipline amidst violence
- Mobilized 10,000s in subzero temps to protest and watch ICE
- Flipped public opinion against ICE

We must also marvel at the titanic idiocy of our new "Donroe Doctrine" for it turns America from a global power into a regional one by choice.

I still can't really believe they are going through with this for it is so batshit f-ing crazy, and does so much lasting harm to our interests.
So is it really possible the Trump regime had no real plan for Venezuela beyond snatching Maduro? That like Putin in Ukraine they thought Caracas would fall in three days? That Trump just imagined himself in charge? That its already FUBARed?

We need to increase the pressure on the Republican Senators to pass the extension bill when it arrives. My premium payments are going from $700 to $1800. Too many are going to cancel their plans and go without health insurance, then hope and pray they don't get hurt or sick.
Urgent update.

Our bipartisan petition to force a vote on a straightforward extension of the Affordable Care Act tax credits now has 218 signatures.

Mike Johnson should bring the bill to the floor immediately.

All of these new rulings don’t just affect today, they rewrite precedent. Trump still has three years left, and whatever expanded powers the Court hands him now will automatically pass to the next president as well.
