Social Will the government shutdown tomorrow?

[Croaker]

First thing you have posted in forever that I agree with. This video is dumb as fuck and is a horrible look and shows they think the shut down is some kind of low key nonchalant joke..

It will work on at least 70% of Democratic supporters.

trump increased military spending for the benefit of trans people by 13%

 

[Osculater]

I need the there not to be a shut down so they can approve the SOL ETFs next week

 

[Osculater]

lol another 20/80 issue

 

[Seano]

I pay a lot of money for my health insurance. Why should my (and everyone else's) tax dollars subsidize free health care for illegals?
How do Dems see this as a winning issue for them?

 

[gentel]

Love to see it - the shutdown is just about the closest we're going to get to a general strike

The only way we're going to get the wealthy elites on board with eliminating fascism, is to make fascism a money-losing venture for them

It's like chemotherapy - poisoning yourself sucks but you gotta do it to poison and kill the cancer

What does this shutdown have to do with "fascism"?
When did the word fascism become just a catch all phrase for anything democrats don't like?

Mike Johnson secretly gay!?

I am shocked.

Lmao.

Don't be ridiculous. Gay people are a myth.

For awhile now, overused like oligarchs, racist, bigots .... ect.

Fascism is:

Purging the executive branch of non-loyalists and installing people who are loyal to Trump rather than to the Constitution and rule of law

Masked goons abducting people and trafficking them to other countries without due process

Abuse of government authority to target political enemies (Comey, Kimmel, Mamdani)

Egregious corruption and self-dealing (Trumpcoin)

Nah. Fascism is fundamentally an authoritarian pursuit of national purity through force. Most everything else is white noise.

This sentence itself is distillation of the disconnect between supporters of the GOP and the health of the country. Instead of being concerned of various groups losing government services and their effects, the concern is over their crypto scams. I just need to make money on my scam and don't care about anything else.

Maybe we shouldn’t shut down the government so we can give illegals healthcare and we can have both!

This has nothing whatsoever to do with undocumented immigrants. We have these ACA tax credits in effect right now, we’ve had them for years in fact. They are about to expire EOY and we want them extended so millions of Americans don’t have increases in health care costs. We’re also asking to roll back the cuts to Medicaid that Trump just made.

These tax credits only apply to ACA plans purchased in the marketplace. Undocumented immigrants aren’t eligible, have never been eligible, and we aren’t asking for that to change. They also aren’t eligible for Medicaid. I feel like our two sides do this constantly; Trump Admin spouts ridiculous lies and I can’t tell if you guys truly believe them or just like repeating them. It’s nonsense.

Republicans falsely claiming Democrats want to give free health care to those without legal status

As Congress careens towards a government shutdown, Trump and top Republicans falsely accuse Democrats of demanding that free health care be given to “illegal aliens.”

Looks like yes the democrats are going to shut it down.

I say good let them do and keep it shut. Do not give in to the democrats that want to go back to the same shit we just got rid off.

How does a minority party shutdown the government? It can't without bipartisan support. The bulk of the shutdown falls on the republican party as they need to convince the fewest number of people to pass anything.

dems should have had only one requirement. Release the Epstein files in full.

 

[calavera2]

This is your daily reminder

Trumps America is a shithole

Lmao y'all really believe this immigrant healthcare stuff. All they have to do is say a few scary words and Maga jumps right on it.

Kind of surprised this narrative is catching on. Federal law prohibits undocumented immigrants from getting healthcare from taxpayer dollars (aside from ER visits and public innoculations).

But I guess the mention of illegal immigrants is enough to get people angry enough to believe it.

Fact check: Are Democrats shutting down government over healthcare for illegal immigrants?

Some have insisted the stalemate revolves around Democrats wanting to fund healthcare for illegal immigrants.
