The Truth

As democracy is perfected, the office of president represents, more & more closely, the inner soul of the people. On some great and glorious day the plain folks of the land will reach their heart's desire at last & the White House will be adorned by a downright moron H.L. Mencken

@DICEY63 @NoMoreRx @sanderson1611 @RepThomasMassie Nobody on the planet is as shallow as MAGA people. No depth. No empathy. No skills. Completely gullible. That’s MAGA. 🙄 Keep being a complete fool. Follow your leader. He wouldn’t piss on you if you were on fire. Keep worshipping him. 🙄

@TheTruthBasket @NoMoreRx @sanderson1611 @RepThomasMassie Keep resisting 🤡

Thomas Massie was married to the same woman for like 30 years till she DIED. Trump on the other hand is twice divorced - that's 2 failed marriages. Then he criticizes @RepThomasMassie for getting remarried 1.5 years after his wife died? Trump is sleazy, & he's a big hypocrite!

@DICEY63 @NoMoreRx @sanderson1611 @RepThomasMassie You have no idea what it’s like to be a widower after being married for three decades. It’s bad. I’m so glad he found someone. I’m sure his late wife would have wanted this.

@NoMoreRx @sanderson1611 @RepThomasMassie It’s the truth though

@MJTruthUltra Counties don’t vote. I live in a county with only about 50,000 people. Add that to the three surrounding counties, and that’s about 160,000. The one county that includes Detroit has over a million residents. MJ is not making a sensible argument.

“The American people did not give President Trump a mandate. It was the closest election in history.” Trump: 2,633 counties Harris: 427 counties At some point, people have got to wake the hell up.

@0rangeandwhite @JaredRyanSears Give one example of a single person without legal status getting Medicaid. Trump can’t. Vance can’t.

@JaredRyanSears Those subsidies were brought on by Covid and were always set to expire. Then why are there 14 states where illegals can get Medicaid???????? Why are SNAP applications in Spanish???? Why do I see people doing exactly ☝️that☝️EVERY DAY at my job????

Three things to know about this shutdown: -Undocumented immigrants are barred from Medicare, Medicaid, and the Affordable Care Act subsidies. -ACA subsidies will expire at the end of the year, increasing healthcare costs for millions of Americans. -Republicans are lying about the first point to distract you from the second, and would rather the government shut down than make sure people can afford healthcare.

@TomCat0U812 @chicagotribune Facts are difficult for the MAGA. 🙄

@TheTruthBasket @chicagotribune I see your programming is complete.

Top Senate Democrat Chuck Schumer and Republican Majority Leader John Thune are digging in ahead of this week’s deadline to keep the government open. trib.al/k49tedf

@TomCat0U812 @chicagotribune Okay MAGA. Lack of access to healthcare isn’t a problem unless Trump says so. 👌🏻👍😂

@TheTruthBasket @chicagotribune The current lower life expectancy has nothing to do with "healthcare", unless you count the approximately 350,000 deaths associated with medical malpractice and drug interactions.

@Tamra_Diane @PressSec Crossing the border illegally is a misdemeanor. Look it up.

Democrats are shutting down the federal government because President Trump won’t force taxpayers to pay for free health care for illegal aliens. Just think about that… Democrat elected representatives are punishing their own constituents to fight for illegals. Deranged.

@PressSec Not true.

@CRIXUSwasHERE @elonmusk This is something they pretend is happening to distract you from the transfer of wealth from the middle class to the top 1%. Don’t fall for it.

@elonmusk WHO AGREES?😕👇

@elonmusk Transgender people are about 1% of the population-give or take. They’ve been around since the beginning of time. They aren’t a problem. The massive shift in wealth from the middle class to the top 1% is what’s causing the decline American’s standard of living-not trans people.

@TomCat0U812 @chicagotribune And we have a lower life expectancy due to the lack of access to healthcare. That’s not an opinion. That’s a fact.

@TheTruthBasket @chicagotribune That is the reason that as bad as things are financially in the US, we are not on the verge of collapse, like Europe is. We are successful because we're not like the other guys

@TomCat0U812 @chicagotribune Notwithstanding the far right ideological opposition to Medicare, it’s by far more cost effective than private insurance companies who spend billions on executive bonuses.

@TheTruthBasket @chicagotribune .edicare has absolutely no incentive to be efficient because it has no competition. I know it's warm and safe, but please get your head out if your ass. It's unbecoming.

@TomCat0U812 @chicagotribune Medicare is by far the most efficient healthcare provider. All insurance includes pooling money and the healthy pay for people who get sick. The idea is it’s there if YOU get sick. That’s how insurance works. Always has been.

@TheTruthBasket @chicagotribune Are you sure? Because as far as I can see, the ideas that one party makes sure the rich get richer is naive, at best. Medicare just means healthy people pay the bills for the sick people. Money still goes to the rich pharma bros. Still goes to filthy rich hospitals, doctors, etc.

@TomCat0U812 @chicagotribune Here on earth one, the ACA mandate was eliminated years ago. America is the only advanced country without a nationalized healthcare system. We also have the most expensive healthcare in the world by far. The MAGA don’t seem to know this.

@TheTruthBasket @chicagotribune Ummm . . . ACA stole $1600+ from me every year because I refused to participate in unconstitutional fraud. Fuck you and your retarded generalizations.

@FFT1776 @BernieSanders The MAGA have no idea- they would benefit from Medicare for all & more access to healthcare in general. They’re so worried that their tax dollars might benefit someone else but have no problem with massive tax cuts for the top 1%. Hey MAGA “Illegals” aren’t your biggest problem

Republicans are poised to shut down the government. Here’s how they can get my support: 1) Don’t take health care away from 15 million people with Medicaid cuts 2) Don’t increase premiums by 75% for 20 million Americans 3) Don’t don’t move us toward authoritarianism

@TomCat0U812 @chicagotribune The people making sure tax money goes to rich people are the Republicans and Trump. I’m for Medicare expansion to everyone. That cuts out the insurance companies-all are big donors to Trump and the GOP. Obamacare was a compromise to get the GOP to do something about healthcare

@TheTruthBasket @chicagotribune So, you're cool with tax money going to the greedy rich people? Also, insuring the uninsurable raises prices. Illegals going to emergency rooms raises prices.

@TomCat0U812 @chicagotribune The mandate that everyone gets insurance was eliminated years ago. The MAGA don’t know this because Trump doesn’t talk about it and the far right media lies about the ACA constantly.

@TheTruthBasket @chicagotribune ACA demands that everyone gets insurance. That raises the risk profile for insurance companies, therefore they have to raise their prices. Real world.

@DemInNameOnly @RepJasmine Here in the real world, everyone-except the hardcore MAGA cult-knows that nobody is pushing for healthcare for illegal aliens. This is about healthcare costs for America citizens-that are about to skyrocket under the GOP plan.

@RepJasmine Nice try, but people aren’t stupid. We all know that all Democrats had to do was support a clean CR, as you’ve done dozens of times before, & the government would still be open. But it was more important for YOUR PARTY to give healthcare to illegal aliens. THAT’S the narrative.

The government is officially shut down. Make no mistake: Republicans control the House, the Senate, and the White House. This is THEIR shutdown. They had every tool to govern and chose chaos instead. The American people are the ones paying the price.

@TomCat0U812 @chicagotribune If the MAGA knew how little “illegals” impact their lives and how much greedy billionaires are actually increasing their cost of living, Trump would never have been elected. Trump has the gullible MAGA completely fooled. Trump is doing nothing about corporate greed.

@TomCat0U812 @chicagotribune The MAGA don’t seem to know that every person on Obamacare (the ACA) has private health insurance.The government helps with the premiums. The bill is paid by an insurance company. Insurance companies pay their executives millions in bonuses every year.The problem isn’t “illegals”
