WE ARE IN DARK DAYS! KEEP THE FAITH

Senator Warnock just broke it down: health care is on the line.

A Chatham County family once paid $559/month for coverage—now it’s $2,100 after GOP subsidy cuts. Quadruple the cost just to stay insured.

When people are hired, not for their honesty or competency, but for their ability to be snarling trolls on TV for the delight of their immature and unpleasant boss, you get an AG like Pamela Jo Bondi.

Durbin: "What has taken place since January 20, 2025, would make even President Nixon recoil. This is your legacy, AG Bondi."

Share the ICIRR 24-hour hotline number (also called the Family Support Network or FSN hotline) and call it to report ICE activity that you witness: 855-435-7693 Be sure to report information according to S.A.L.U.T.E.

Very good question!

Someone should start asking why we’re hearing and seeing Stephen Miller so much all of a sudden.

ICE is firing pepper bullets and deploying smoke grenades in Portland, even though protesters are remaining in their designated area and peacefully dancing.

I don't know what it is Bluesky wants me to do to not get banned, unless it's to simply never mention the name of— — well wait, can I finish that sentence?

If I say his name, to tell you I'm afraid if I say his name Bluesky will ban me, will Bluesky ban me for saying his name

This is a lie.

There are many criticisms you might sensibly and truthfully make of the Sentencing Council and the Sentencing Guidelines. I’ve been making them for years.

But this is an outright lie. Pure fabrication. A fraud on the public.

I say we take away taxpayer-funded health care from members of Congress and see what kind of shutdown they’re willing to stage when their coverage is on the line. Maybe then they’d stop playing games with the ACA and the lives of millions of Americans.

A lot of libertarians who have been screaming in my replies about "authoritarianism" and "tyranny" for the last four years are conspicuously quiet right now.

Curious.

Schumer: That issue that MAGA Mike keeps talking about—illegal immigrants getting health care. It’s an effing lie. The law says that federal dollars cannot go to illegal immigrants under Medicare, Medicaid, or the ACA.

And I said that to him in the room. I said, You’re lying. He smirked.

A groomsman in Donald Trump Jr.'s wedding is flaunting his access to the president as he pursues business deals in Pakistan, Germany, Iraq, Turkey, Serbia, Rwanda, Kazakhstan, and the Democratic Republic of Congo, raising new questions about Hunter Biden's work for Burisma.

Good news, Dem candidates.

The GOP leader is telling his 2026 candidates that they must not talk about costs unless they are saying how low they are and that tariffs are great.

Which of course means, you get to be the one talking about the truth—that costs are too high and tariffs are a disaster.

To quell a crisis, you need to create one.

Because we want to win.

lardass lied saying there have been zero undocumented immigrants crossing the border for the last few months.

There have been but they also changed the method of counting to make the numbers lower than numbers Biden had!!

Undocumented immigrants crossing between manned border crossings is unknown.
