Maybe it’s time Democrats ask themselves who they really work for — the Soros family or the American people.

Texas Insider Report: WASHINGTON, D.C. – Democrats are holding our government hostage, an entirely preventable crisis, all to fund their radical liberal wishlist. The longer Democrats drag this out, the longer the list of consequences will grow, and the bigger the burden will be on taxpayers.
But behind the slogans and spin, they’re deceiving millions of Americans. And now we know why.
This week, reports revealed that a left-wing activist group bankrolled by the Soros family is pressuring Senate Democrats to block government funding. The American people deserve better. Maybe it’s time Democrats ask themselves who they really work for — the Soros family or the American people.
- 70% of Americans oppose a government shutdown, yet Democrats refuse to face reality.
- It's no secret the Democrat Party has been out of touch with the American people for some time, but when you ignore what 70% of Americans think, there is a serious problem.
I want to break down the true cost of Democrat chaos for you. One thing that separates the wheat from the chaff is simple: cold hard facts — and they don’t lie.
Keep in mind, these figures are only the tip of the iceberg:
- America is losing $400 million daily in furloughed Americans’ wages.
- Democrats want to spend nearly $200 BILLION on healthcare for illegal aliens. That is enough to fund the Children’s Health Insurance Program.
- A month-long shutdown would lead to more than 43,000 Americans becoming unemployed.
- The shutdown is expected to cost Main Street America $30 MILLION.
- A $15 billion loss in our GDP.
Texas is losing around $1.4 billion each week in GDP.
Democrats shut down the government for one thing: their pandemic-era Obamacare handouts.
The so-called “temporary” subsidies – created for an emergency that ended years ago – now come with a 10-year price tag of $450 BILLION.
Here’s the kicker: these taxpayer-funded subsidies aren’t just for struggling families.
Thanks to Democrats’ changes, they now flow to households making up to $500,000 annually.
Polls show that when voters learn the truth, 65% of Americans say it’s time to end these wasteful payments and return to pre-COVID rates.

The math is simple, Democrats are willing to shut down your government to protect a half-trillion-dollar bailout for wealthy households and insurance companies.
