Republicans Own This Shutdown Crisis
Don’t let them spin it! Help us hold them accountable! Take action. Post, share, and flood the feeds with truth🔥
The government is four days from shutting down, and let’s be crystal clear about who’s responsible: Donald Trump and congressional Republicans.
Trump agreed to meet with Democratic leaders Chuck Schumer and Hakeem Jeffries to negotiate funding. Then he bailed, whining that Democrats’ healthcare priorities were “unserious and ridiculous.” Always full of cowardice and sabotage.
Republicans control the White House, the Senate, and the House. They have zero excuses. Instead of governing, they’re staging dangerous political games that will punish millions of Americans.
Here’s what’s at stake: Republicans are blocking the extension of enhanced ACA subsidies that 22 million people rely on. Without them, premiums could spike 75–90%. That’s a calculated attack on healthcare.
Worse, Trump has ordered agencies to prep for permanent layoffs of federal workers, not temporary furloughs. This is an unprecedented plan to gut government services and wipe out programs he doesn’t like.
A shutdown would stop food safety inspections, delay tax refunds, snarl air travel, and slash SNAP benefits within weeks. Republicans are willing to grind daily life to a halt because they refuse to negotiate.
This is manufactured chaos. Democrats have been clear: extend healthcare subsidies and fund the government. Republicans’ answer? Cancel meetings and threaten mass firings.
The public isn’t fooled. Polls show a majority back Democrats’ position on healthcare. Republicans own this crisis. They run the government, but they refuse to govern.
Now it’s on us to hold them accountable. Call your representatives. Share the truth. Make it clear Americans won’t tolerate leaders who shut down government to score points while ripping away healthcare.
Democracy demands better than Trump’s chaos and Republican obstruction.
F**cking straight. And we scream it from the rooftops.
Damn right they do. Don't let them spin it onto the other side of the isle.
