It also guarantees that fired federal employees will be rehired, and others will receive backpay. Most importantly, it funds SNAP benefits for one year to keep families from starving while Republicans held them hostage to their demands to kill Obamacare.<\/p>\n<p><strong>SEE THIS: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.newscorpse.com\/ncWP\/?p=68230\" target=\"_blank\">Trump\u2019s New Plan to Kill Obamacare Would Cost People More and Make Insurance Companies Richer<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Many Democrats are not pleased with the deal. They are disappointed that they went through this melodrama without getting significant concessions from Trump and his MAGA minions in Congress. But Republicans aren&#8217;t especially thrilled either. They will still have to vote on the ACA subsidies in a couple of months, when they will face another potential shutdown. In the meantime, they will suffer politically for having adopted such a cruel agenda that harms children and seniors.<\/p>\n<p>It is notable that Republicans aren&#8217;t taking much of a victory lap upon nailing this down. In fact, they are making excuses and <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/bsky.app\/profile\/newscorpse.bsky.social\/post\/3m5c6wkt7ac2l\" target=\"_blank\">running from questions about the deal<\/a><\/strong> that they orchestrated. Among their weakling apologists is Trump&#8217;s administrator of the Centers for Medicare Services, <em>&#8220;doctor&#8221;<\/em> Mehmet Oz. He dashed over to Fox News for an interview with their Senior Trump-Fluffer, Maria Bartiromo, to try to spin the deal as a win for the GOP. It didn&#8217;t go very well.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><strong>BARTIROMO:<\/strong> How do you want this to play out once the ACA subsidies expire?<br \/>\n<strong>DR OZ:<\/strong> We have lots of great ideas, but I don&#8217;t want to show our cards.

Oz wants to know why he should <em>&#8220;show our cards&#8221;<\/em> to reveal Trump&#8217;s healthcare plans. How about because that&#8217;s his freakin&#8217; job? This isn&#8217;t a top secret military mission. It is a public servant describing what he&#8217;s doing on behalf of the people he is supposedly there to serve. It&#8217;s his obligation to keep the people informed so that they can make decisions about whether or not these bureaucrats are performing up to their expectations. But Oz has the gall to refuse to tell the people what he&#8217;s going to do, and in the same breath say that <em>&#8220;We have to have an open government.&#8221;<\/em><\/p>\n<p>The claim by Oz that he has <em>&#8220;lots of great ideas&#8221;<\/em> is obviously a lie. If he did he would be proud to say what they are. But Republicans have been pretending to have an alternative to Obamacare for ten years. And for that entire time they have never presented it to the public. Trump himself has promised his plan in the oft-repeated <em>&#8220;two weeks&#8221;<\/em> that has never materialized.<\/p>\n<p>So now we have another promise of a healthcare plan that for some reason needs to be kept secret. And this is the stance that the Trumpists are taking in the wake of their Trump Shutdown. Trump et al will undoubtedly endeavor to spin this as a win for themselves. That&#8217;s a lie. Trump and Republicans are already taking the heat for this fiasco. So we shouldn\u2019t help them by bashing our side and suppressing turnout in the future. We are winning and we need to keep up that momentum.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"bluesky-embed\" data-bluesky-uri=\"at:\/\/did:plc:fviqe3xscfdntuwbuzppqetg\/app.bsky.feed.post\/3m5cgv2oros2g\" data-bluesky-cid=\"bafyreihfbd2khgo7gwbifwtrkm6fipblfwvvh6eaouychq4tbyrg7koesm\">\n<p lang=\"en\">TRUMP AND THE GOP ARE TOAST&#8230;? &#34;November has the worst ever consumer sentiment of current conditions since 1951.&#34;? &#34;More than 3 in 5 Americans (61%) say that Trump&#39;s policies have worsened economic conditions in America.&#34;<\/p>\n<p>&mdash; <a href=\"https:\/\/bsky.app\/profile\/did:plc:fviqe3xscfdntuwbuzppqetg?ref_src=embed\">News Corpse (@newscorpse.bsky.social)<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/bsky.app\/profile\/did:plc:fviqe3xscfdntuwbuzppqetg\/post\/3m5cgv2oros2g?ref_src=embed\">2025-11-10T20:16:48.783Z<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/embed.bsky.app\/static\/embed.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>What&#8217;s more, even if Democrats got the ACA subsidies from the Senate, the House GOP would have voted them down.
