“Our health care system is broken.” Bernie slams bipartisan gov reopen with no health care deal

In today’s episode of Congress Pretends to Govern, Bernie Sanders warns that reopening the government without a health care deal isn’t “bipartisan progress” — it’s “mutual surrender.” Democrats claim it’s about “keeping the lights on.” Republicans call it “fiscal responsibility.” Translation: nobody got what they wanted, but everyone got a press release.

Bernie, meanwhile, is on the Senate floor dropping moral napalm — accusing both parties of playing shutdown ping-pong while millions lose coverage and premiums skyrocket.

Because nothing says “functional democracy” like two parties agreeing to do the bare minimum and calling it historic.
