  1. Democrat Abigail Spanberger wins governorship in Virginia replacing Republican Glenn Youngkin

    "Virginia is home to around 320,000 federal workers and hundreds of thousands of federal contractors."

    Guess bouncing paychecks isn't a winning strategy

  2. "#Americans shopping for 2026 #Obamacare #HealthInsurance plans are facing a more than doubling of monthly premiums on average and are likely to postpone signing up in hopes of a last-minute reprieve, or walk away, #health experts say."

    Do you know what happens when the people walk away? Some will likely die of preventable disease--blood on YOUR hands, #GOP! But also, #premiums will go EVEN FARTHER UP for those who remain! And with #Trump's #tariff #inflation ravaging American's wallets already, what are people to do?

  7. While millions of your friends, neighbors, and relatives and their #CHILDREN go hungry, and while the #prices of necessities go up and up and UP, your #President GORGES himself like a pig in greedy excess:

    "Some 42 million #Americans rely on the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program but because of the on-going #government #shutdown, funding for the critical scheme ended on November 1. Meanwhile, #Trump was pictured enjoying himself at the Halloween bash at his Palm Beach residence, surrounded by guests in Roaring 20s-style getup."

  12. #American friends: how do you feel about 42 million of your fellow citizens going #hungry? And that it's going to happen because the #GOP wants to raise #insurance #premiums on working people so badly? Does it worry you that a #billionaire is willing to pay your #military to occupy your streets, but not to feed the hungry? Is this the behavior or a "1st world nation?"

    Do you not care, as long as the "right" people are starved?

    Is that how a "good" person would feel?

  13. "More than 24 million people have #ACA #health #insurance, a group including #farmers, #ranchers, small business owners and other self-employed people who don’t have other health insurance options through their #work."

    What do you say, #USA? Is one of those 24,000,000 #Americans a friend? A family member? A neighbor? YOU? Musk, Bezos, and Zuckerberg are getting huge tax breaks. What do REAL Americans get?

  14. Attempted #Drumpf & #RFKjr purge of #CDC workers initially fails due to clerical "coding" error.

    “The employees who received incorrect notifications were never separated from the agency and have all been notified that they are not subject to the reduction in force,” said Andrew #Nixon, director of communications for the US Department of #Health and Human Services. More than half of Center for #Disease Control staffers gleefully fired Friday by #GOP administration have been reinstated.

    “We figure they started this thing, so they should be #Democrat-oriented,” the President said, placing blame for his second #GovtShutdown firmlly on a minority #Democratic lawmakers. #DJT did not provide details on what qualified the affected dismissed workers as “Democrat-oriented.”

    Once the "coding error " on the dismissal notifications is figured out by the admin's "Christian nationalist" headchopper #RussVought, it is almost certain thousands of federal workers will again be re-fired
