#OHSen John Husted is up for election in '26, and he just voted to shut down the government and raise your health care prices. Ohio won't forget.

WATCH: Susan Collins just voted to raise health care prices on Mainers and shut down the government. Over 50,000 Mainers benefit from ACA tax credits, and she just voted against each and every one of them. #MESen

Uhhh... there's a very interesting YouTube playlist linked on Jack Ciattarelli's fundraising email list. 👀 "Jack Hates Trump." Might be time to rethink that consulting firm, Jack. #NJGov

John Kennedy claims that some Senators will have to settle for a bill that hurts their constituents. "Some people are just going to have to settle for a ham and egg sandwich without the ham." Also, the "ham" is funding for rural hospitals, food assistance, and Medicaid.

After saying they wouldn’t, the GOP voted to support Trump’s bill that will kick 8.6m Americans off Medicaid and make life even harder for Americans struggling with Trump’s crumbling economy and sky-high prices. They lied, and we have receipts. 🧵⬇️

Check out Chip Roy's face when reporters ask about the deal that the Freedom Caucus negotiated with the White House. They don't want to tell the American people about the devastating cuts they are negotiating in backrooms.

Mike Johnson promises to slash $1.5 trillion from programs that help American families — all to pay for Trump's tax cut for billionaires. Johnson and Thune are LYING when they say cuts won't come from Medicaid.

🚨"It’s a dangerous time to be a child in the United States." @pauloffit.bsky.social sounds the alarm on RFK Jr.’s anti-vaccine agenda and what it could mean for public health. The Senate must reject his nomination to safeguard public health and our children's future. #StopRFK
A newspaper-style layout with a headline at the top, written in bold black text on a beige background. The headline reads:
“‘Dangerous time to be a child’: Leading pediatrician deals major warning over Trump plan.”
Below the headline, in smaller orange text, it says:
“Raw Story, Jan. 13, 2025.”
Beneath the text is a grayscale photo of Robert F. Kennedy Jr. speaking at a podium. He wears a suit and tie, looking intense and animated. A faint orange gradient at the bottom fades into the photo.A quote on a black background in white text. The quote reads:
“Mr. Kennedy... is a vaccine cynic, failing to accept studies that refute his beliefs... Given the lack of appropriate guardrails that would normally prevent an anti-vaccine activist, science denialist, and conspiracy theorist from heading the country’s most important public health agency, it’s a dangerous time to be a child in the United States.”
Below the quote, in orange text, the attribution reads:
“Dr. Paul Offit
Pediatrician specializing in infectious diseases at the Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia.”
