Republicans: "We didn't kill Medicaid! We have a slush fund to offset costs!"

Republicans say expect $100 million in help.

The Republicans cut 1 billion annually in Medicaid alone, 2.4 billion annually with the whole Big Beautiful Bill.

The GOP f-ed us all. minnesotareformer.com/2025/11/13/r...

Here's an agenda for rural Minnesota • Minnesota Reformer Five priorities to help families, small businesses and rural communities thrive.

Dear @dfl.org,

Tell rural DFL candidates to stop with the "I'm Republican Lite" pathetically weak campaign.

THIS is the template to win back rural Minnesota!

Republicans screwed everything up. The DFL can fix it! minnesotareformer.com/2025/11/13/h...

One of the world's biggest girl groups is coming to Minneapolis Katseye kicks off its world tour with a sold-out show at The Armory Saturday.

I accidentally stumbled onto their Mall of America performance, and they waved at me when they went onto the stage. This means I am their #1 fan! #KATSEYE! www.axios.com/local/twin-c...

Shutdown Deal Kills Rules to Prevent Food Contamination and Foodborne Illnesses The gutting of these rules coincides with a huge increase in hospitalizations and deaths from foodborne illnesses.

Not only did the Republicans vote to make it FAR MORE LIKELY you will get sick from preventable foodborne illnesses, but they also made it far harder for you to determine which product got you sick, meaning it'll be harder to hold them accountable for their incompetence. truthout.org/articles/shu...

Trump’s lies about costs show something is very wrong 'inside the man’s mind': economist Breaking down President Donald Trump's latest spin on his faltering economy, University of Michigan economics professor Justin Wolfers said his lies are so shocking he wonders if the president is suff...

I love it when Trump's stupidity makes seasoned and tenured university economics experts do spit takes. www.rawstory.com/trumps-lies-...

White House says October jobs and inflation data may never be released because of the shutdown Press secretary Karoline Leavitt told reporters that part of the fallout could be lasting damage to the government's data collection ability.

So Princess Buttercup, aka Taco Belle, aka 'Does this cross hide my sins?', aka Press Secretary Leavitt, is trying to argue the shutdown somehow "broke numbers."

"Goldman’s economists said they expect the shutdown to have “a limited impact” on the quality of jobs data." www.cnbc.com/2025/11/12/w...

U.S. Catholic bishops call for end to "dehumanizing rhetoric" on immigrants Although it doesn't mention Trump by name, the bishops' "special message" marks a rare public reproach of his immigration policies.

The same group that decided to attack Joe Biden and deny one of the most pious people I've ever seen communion, finally decided to read the book they claim to preach, and must have been stunned when they got to the Gospel of Matthew. www.axios.com/2025/11/13/t...

He indeed shut the US House back down again just to stop the vote on releasing the Epstein Files.

A reminder, the man who claims to be a 'Christian' (Speaker Mike Johnson) is actively and intentionally covering up the crimes of pedophiles. www.rawstory.com/raw-investig...

How many Republican politicians, if they were to walk in on Trump sexually assaulting their 13-year-old daughter or granddaughter, and had Trump tell them, "Get out and close the door behind you, would apologize and leave the room?

It wouldn't be zero.

Epstein emails: key takeaways from 20,000 pages of newly released files Convicted sex offender said Trump ‘knew about the girls’ and called president a ‘maniac’

Such a lovely note from Ashworth.

Thanks for being my morning sunshine, Jaye!

When they tore down the old original Walker Art Museum in the mid-70s, it had been abandoned, and graffiti guys had done their damage. Someone had taken a shot at Spiro Agnew. Spiro Agnew graffiti has got to be worth extra points.

Morning Bob!

If you believe Trump:

All the victims are lying.
All the photos are lying.

All the eyewitnesses are lying.
Numerous investigators are lying.
All the flight logs are lying.
EVERYTHING IS A LIE!
