1. How the hell does he explain the lies about it somehow being "illegal" to pay SNAP benefits?

It's pretty simple MIKE.

Republicans INTENTIONALLY and UNLAWFULLY terrorized people with their "No Food for You" threat -- and then tried to BLAME the Democrats.

Well, Democrats (23 Democratic AGs + 3 Republican AGs) forced Trump to pay SNAP benefits. They sued and WON.

And now Democrats (44 Democrats and 1 Independent) are Standing Strong to STOP Obamacare Premiums from MORE THAN DOUBLING. They are standing strong but need OUR HELP to WIN on this Too. (Message for Senate and House Republican constituents)

If STOPPING Obamacare Premiums from MORE THAN DOUBLING is a "left-wing radical agenda," then 78% of the country is radical left.

Key findings from an October 2025 KFF poll regarding the potential doubling of premiums if enhanced tax credits expire:

78% of the public want Congress to extend the tax credits that prevent premiums from more than doubling. Only 22% said Congress should let the credits expire.

Among those who buy their own insurance, 70% say they would not be able to afford the higher premiums if they doubled without significantly disrupting their finances.

Only 30% of those who buy their own insurance believe they could afford the doubled premiums.

42% of marketplace enrollees said they would go without health insurance if their premiums doubled.
