This coming year Medicare Advantage in 6 states will be limited if insurance companies decree that the treatment should not be covered. With Republicans in power things change.

He's pardoning nearly every corrupt politician and dangerous insurrectionist he can find while using the DOJ to pursue his personal grudges—as the longest government shutdown in history drags on.

Undefeated

I have little influence here, but all Democrats need to push this message. If you are over 70 or have a major illness, bow out of your political office and let younger, healthier people fight. There are capable ones out there. Ruth Bader Ginsburg, Joe Biden, Sylvester Turner all hung on too long.

Nothing says ‘fit to lead’ like napping through your own medical endorsement. Get Grandpa Don to bed. 🤦🏽‍♂️

It seems that they already started rigging élections

Maybe not all deserve this. Many of us helped expand rights for all over the years. Call out the evil ones and vote out most. I'm for young battle ready progressives, but I don't like being lumped into a group of the deplorable.

The world’s first trillionaire initiated a move that has left more than half a million people dead, most of whom are children.

When this administration filled with sycophants are kicked out, I want to forget such awful people existed. We won't hear their voices or see their smirking lying faces, just place them in a nameless Maga blob of deplorables.

Hey, I'm from Texas, and I'd need to first eat enough to more than triple my weight and then die to help with this goal. That's not to say you're totally wrong.

I would like to know how much evidence could be procured that would warrant 4 days of testimony. Did a psychologist testify to the mental damage of being hit with a sandwich? Did a forensic expert testify to the trajectory, velocity and impact of a sandwich on a vest? I don't get it.

The corporate propaganda machine colluding with the Trump propaganda machine to lie to the American people about Thanksgiving.

The utter stupidity of pursuing a criminal trial against someone for throwing a sandwich that bounced off a bullet proof vest pissing away hundreds of thousands of dollars for this joke is the perfect encapsulation of this Administration.

I don’t know how many times I’ve watched this video.

I don’t know how we’ve gotten to the point where men in full balaclavas can abduct daycare teachers while they’re watching children.

But I do know that this isn’t sustainable. Abolish ICE. There is no way to reform this.

POLITICO Pro Breaking News Alert FAA to throttle back flights in parts of the US as shutdown worsens air traffic controller shortages

Trump and MAGA Republicans would rather shut down our air space than agree to protect your health care.

This is how I felt when I discovered tRump would be president again on November 5, 2024 and I have alternated between fury and fear for my children’s future.
After these elections, tonight is the first time I’ve felt like this country may survive tRump.

ICE Barbie Says Immigrants Are Too Dumb to Drive Semitrucks Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem made the inane claim while bragging about arresting immigrant truck drivers.

Yet in 2010, Noem—then a congressional candidate—had “20 speeding tickets, three stop-sign violations, two seat-belt violations and a citation for driving with no driver’s license.” She had six court notices for failing to appear, and had two warrants out for her arrest. trib.al/uQSDaqR

I'm old, but I look forward to all these awful old men gone, either as irrelevancy occurs or a natural death (Dick Cheney as an example). I long for the day Trump isn't mentioned on news, social media, or personal conversations. I hope I last long enough to see it.

Would Vance be better? Would the threat of Vance also being impeached for unlawful behavior after a Trump impeachment make Vance more likely to follow precedents and laws?

Men are so emotional.

it's time for journos to start asking Johnson meta questions

"Speaker, on 5 occasions last week you said 'I haven't seen it' when asked about news events w/big implications for public policy. Do you ever read the news, and do you agree it's problematic for the Speaker to be so woefully uninformed?"

Obama: When I think back to a year ago, I remember talking to some people, who would say, this election doesn't matter all that much. That however the next president ended up being, it wasn't going to matter to them. If nothing else, the last nine months should have cured us of that idea.

We can also personally donate to local food banks. Somehow I never thought to do this until yesterday. I hope most people are more aware of the possibilities and not as slow as I was.

FACTS about SNAP:

-35% to white people (largest share)
-90% to people born in 🇺🇸
-86% to households with kids
-70% work full time but aren’t paid a living wage (aka corporate welfare)

sad state of America

Welch: "This has nothing to do with the shutdown. The law requires and the funds are available to continue SNAP right now without any interruption. So that is a decision the president is making on his own to allow people to go hungry."

I think it's interesting to see the passenger reaction. Many smile back, but a few avoid eye contact like they think they may encounter a serial killer.
