"Since the government shutdown started on October 1, President Donald Trump and other Republicans have continued to fault Democrats, arguing they're diverting taxpayer dollars to healthcare for undocumented immigrants a claim Democrats argue has no factual basis. I would almost feel sorry for him if he wasn't doing a ton of damage to health care prices and a ton of damage to the American republic, said Levin."
"I think Johnson and the other Republicans they're in a really tough spot. 57% of MAGA Republicans support the Democratic demand to extend the Affordable Care Act subsidies. So you can see Mike Johnson there trying to figure out, How can I blame somebody else other than myself for this?' And he's somewhat confused that there's a party out there the Democratic party that is listening to the American public and refusing to go along with this Republican hostage-taking we're seeing right now, he continued."
House GOP leader Mike Johnson asserted that the spectacle of the No Kings Day rallies is the reason Democrats refused to reopen the government. Since the October 1 shutdown, President Trump and other Republicans have blamed Democrats for diverting taxpayer dollars to healthcare for undocumented immigrants, a claim Democrats say lacks factual basis. Indivisible co-executive director Ezra Levin said Johnson's actions are doing damage to health care prices and the American republic. Levin noted 57% of MAGA Republicans support extending Affordable Care Act subsidies and called Republican tactics hostage-taking. Levin predicted the No King rallies will draw nearly four times the largest prior protest.
