CNN: “An older couple making $85K/year will see their yearly insurance premiums jump from $7K to $25,000 — 30% of their income.” 😳#TrumpShutdown #TrumpHealthCareTax

This is what Dems are drawing attention to and want fixed. Now, not later.

As long as “others” get stopped and profiled, life is good? But when it happens to you, you regret voting for trump? You willingly got scammed and we, our kids and grandkids are all paying for your ignorance

Some friends still say "we need to come together" - what? How do you come together when the lies just keep coming. Policy based on lies wastes money, time and worst than that, kills. He fleeces the gov't and the cult says bring it on.

At a pizza shop in Acton, Massachusetts, ICE losers with masks, probably Jan 6 rioters, arrest an employee. This was reported on Facebook by two state reps @jamieeldridgema.bsky.social and Danillo Sena, photos by eyewitnesses.

ICE ARREST OF IMMIGRANT AT ACTON BUSINESS ON FRIDAY. On Friday at lunchtime, several federal agents entered Sorrento’s Pizzeria in Acton, and arrested an employee who is an immigrant. Thank you to the Acton constituents who reached out on Friday afternoon to Representative Danillo Sena and me. It is of course extremely alarming that federal agemts are detaining people at their workplace, and disturbing to witness such an arrest.
Thank you to the customers who observed and documented the arrest, done by masked agents, saying “shame” to them.
