One U.S. Attorney already refused this case. So, Trump hand-picked an unqualified hack that would go after another political enemy. This isn't justice. It's revenge. And it should horrify every American who believes no one is above the law.
This is what tyranny looks like. President Trump is using the Justice Department as his personal attack dog, targeting Attorney General Tish James for the ‘crime’ of prosecuting him for fraud—and winning.
The government is shut down because Trump and the Republicans are hellbent on taking health care away from you. And they won’t even come to the table to talk to us about it. This is not about politics. It's about people. Let’s break it down:
Donald Trump really wants us to believe: There’s not enough money to fix ACA healthcare premiums There’s not enough money for Air Traffic Controllers But there’s somehow $20 billion available to bail out Argentina?!
FIVE FAILED VOTES. Senate Republicans do not have the votes to pass their bill. They need to come to the table and negotiate now to reopen the government and bring down healthcare costs. They’re the only ones who seem to think we can’t do both.
Whatever Speaker Johnson says: He sent the House home for YET ANOTHER WEEK because he cares more about protecting the Epstein files than he does about protecting the American people.
That’s right. Speaker Johnson and the House Republicans aren’t bringing the House back next week again. They care more about protecting the EPSTEIN FILES than protecting health care for the American people.
It. Is. Simple. Republicans can reopen the government and make people’s health care more affordable at the same time. They’re choosing not to. This is their shutdown.
Speaker Johnson and House Republicans are out of town again next week Because they care more about protecting the Epstein files than protecting the American people
Americans know it: Trump wants this shutdown and Republicans are following his orders to maximize pain. Democrats will keep fighting to save health care for all Americans.
To everyone observing in the Jewish community in New York, across America, and around the world: G’mar Chatima Tovah During this time of renewal and reflection, my family and I are wishing you an easy and meaningful fast this Yom Kippur.
IT’S MIDNIGHT. That means the Republican shutdown has just begun because they wouldn’t protect Americans’ health care. We’re going to keep fighting for the American people.
Republicans JUST VOTED DOWN our bill to avoid a government shutdown at midnight and address the healthcare needs of the American people. Republicans are plunging us into a government shutdown rather than fixing their healthcare crisis.
Republicans know the American people want the REPUBLICAN HEALTHCARE CRISIS fixed. But Republicans are about to shut the government down instead of fixing it.
