SOLUTION:

CRASH Johnson' press conferences.
BRING Adelita Grijalva and a bible.
DEMAND he swear her in right there on live TV.

It's so simple. It'll either get her sworn in or make Johnson stop doing these fucked up lie-filled pressers.

The current GOP lie is that they’re going to replace Obamacare with something better.

Bullshit. In all of the majorities they’ve had since Obamacare passed, they’ve never once tried to replace it.

They’ve tried to repeal it a whole bunch, but never actually make it better.

Someone has pointed out that this equates to $100 per US soldier.

In other words: they are still going without pay, and we should wonder what this bribe is really meant to pay for.

Newsom Says Trump Is β€˜Rigging the Election’ With Federal Poll Monitors | KQED In an interview with KQED, Gov. Gavin Newsom warned the Trump administration is laying the groundwork to question the results of California’s Proposition 50 vote.

β€œThey're creating the pretext that after we’re successful with Prop. 50, after there's a Dem Gov in NJ & one in VA, unquestionably, that they can suggest these were fraudulent, these elections were rigged against them. β€œThis is a preview of 2026. Wake up, everybody.”

This is what could happen to a child who doesn't get vaccinated An estimated 14 million kids don't get any vaccines. They face serious threats from measles, diarrhea, pneumonia and more.

In case you have an anti-vaxxer in your life. Here's some information for you to give them.

When Ted Cruz, Rand Paul, and Tucker Carlson all agree that the FCC was wrong in suspending Kimmel and, for once, being on the side of normalcy, you know the rapture has come.

Well, there it is. Sinclair is digging in for a fight, so please help push back -- find stations in your area, watch their local news to see what ads they run, then write those advertisers to tell them you're boycotting as long as they're on a Sinclair station.

DISNEY: "OK, we are putting Jimmy Kimmel back on the air. You can resubscribe now."

ME: "I unsubscribed because you immorally bowed to fascism. I'm not going to resubscribe because you immorally bowed to finances."

Why Corporate Media is Bending the Knee
YouTube video by Robert Reich Why Corporate Media is Bending the Knee

Jimmy Kimmel isn't returning to the airwaves because of "thoughtful conversations" with Disney executives.

He's back because consumers sent Disney a clear message: selling out our fundamental rights is not an acceptable cost of doing business.

MAGA should be labeled a domestic terrorist group. MAGA violently attacked the Capitol on Jan 6, has threatened judges, elected officials, sent bombs to people in the media and more.

RFKjr cannot give even a basic summary of the scientific method. He has zero science background. He has zero medical background. Everything he spouts about autism is a lie. Do not believe him.

It’s not a crime to be in this country as an undocumented person. It’s a civil violation.

But you know what is a crime? Taking a bribe from undercover agents in exchange for the promise of government contracts WHEN YOU’RE THE FCKING BORDER CZAR.

DHS to states: Follow our voting rules or lose out on election security money The Trump administration has tied new requirements to election security grants. Some states told NPR they're passing on the grants as a result.

Read the whole article. I hope every state tells them to go F themselves and praying that a judge deems it very illegal.

still thinking about the Montana knife maker who said you don't have to worry about tariffs if you buy american. and then three months later, he realized he imports swedish steel and german equipment. and even MiUSA equipment costs $100k more now because of tariffs

Is there any legitimate law enforcement reason for DOJ to interview Ghislaine Maxwell now? Or is this just a prelude to some β€œexoneration” of Trump?

A very good explanation about some of the awful things in the bill the Senate passed.
Time to call Congress and tell them to VOTE NO on this horrendous bill.

Dr. Coni: One patient had been receiving treatment with eye drops, but then I didn’t see her for months.. I wondered what had happened to her.

When she finally returned, she told me she had lost her Medicaid coverage and couldn’t afford her drops. As a result, she had gone blind in one eye.
