If they really wanted to stop enriching insurance companies, they would revisit Medicare Advantage not ACA subsidies

You misspelled "douchebag" @npr.org

roses are red
some wolves are dire

Hell yes! Come to the fountain pen side!

A hearty FU to Chuck "spineless and should never run again" Schumer

The Democratic Party Needs to Learn from Zohran Mamdani's Guts and Backbone Zohran Mamdani did something different, and it made all the difference.

I am no longer employed so I'm not blogging Zohran tonight but I can just repeat exactly what I said in June :-)

he won on the back of a pro-migrant, pro-trans, pro-working class campaign. and also: Dem pundits are full of shit

20 years too late

I don't understand the continued need to "both sides" this kind of thing (that is clearly one-sided) when funding for public radio was cut off. You're free! Report accurately.

Whenever people complain about the number of folks relying on food stamps, it is worth reminding them that SNAP is, by too large of a degree, a subsidy for corporations that refuse to pay a living wage and their political allies who reject public policy prescriptions to reduce income inequality.

I’m good with my taxes subsidizing social welfare for people who can’t afford food.

I’m enraged with my taxes subsidizing corporate welfare to businesses that won’t pay a living wage.

Welcome to Boston! We recently paid $22 for 1.5 hours 🤪

I keep thinking of that video where a young woman explained the point is that they are exempt from the rules most of us have to follow

When the Republican convention was held in Milwaukee, some restaurant owners required payment up front because of the party's reputation.

Protesters wave signs at passing cars. People are lined up 5 or 6 deep on the park side and down the other side of the street at least 3 deep

Took time out while on vacation to stand at the #NoKings protest in Rockland ME. People overflowed the park and were several deep across the street. I heard an estimate of 1700

Administrators at Indiana University baselessly fired the student media director and ordered the student paper to cease its print edition, so it'd sure be a shame if this excellent digital front page were to be widely shared today

I don't disagree that Markey should step down, but why did it have to be Moulton entering the MA senate race. 😖

A Mysterious Individual - Failbetter Games T - Shirt Unisex Cotton T-Shirt

does your presentation make people think, gosh, that's an individual of mysterious and indistinct gender?

we have a shirt for that

They're trying to prevent the student newspaper from printing news, period. Not just a particular story.

"The Media School directed us to print no news in the paper... nothing but information about homecoming — no other news at all, and particularly no traditional front page news coverage."

Guys & Dolls! Though perhaps not the movie version because Marlon Brando isn't much of a singer.

I rarely watch or listen to Sunday talk shows, only get snippets here and there, and does anyone else find it weird that Vance often seems to say "President of the United States"? What other president would he be referring to?

How cool is this!

Good evening #BookSky Well, #BannedBooksWeek may be wrapping up but the fight for the right to read continues. Here's a quick thread of things you can do all year to help...

That illustration tho

It was clear in the way that all support was yanked extremely abruptly, rather than winding USAID down and giving away all the food and meds that already existed - throwing that food away was preferably to providing it to children and families in need

I'd say you went pretty easy on him

Newsom also wrote the National Governors Association, though I agree Pritzker is saying all the things every Dem governor should be saying
