This shutdown isn’t abstract. It’s 54,000 federal civilian employees across New York — and nearly 2 million nationwide — locked out of their jobs and paychecks. It’s 37,091 people in NY-10 losing Medicaid, and thousands more on Obamacare. 

Republicans’ war on healthcare is devastating real people.

Dr. Demetre Daskalakis, who resigned as director of the National Center on Immunization and Respiratory Diseases at the CDC, shares he learned the childhood and adult immunization schedules for COVID-19 were changed from a video posted on X, formerly known as Twitter, while in a leadership meeting.

When a government starts targeting former intelligence officials, law enforcement leaders, and anyone who once investigated or criticized those in power, it’s not just a red flag, it’s a page straight from the authoritarian playbook.

Its okay for people like Margie Greene and Bobo and Mike Lee to shout profanities at the president IF they are a Democrat but they want jail anyone who speak out against Oh Dear Leader.

Plus the whiny toddler put out a post that indicates he thinks there are too many holidays where people don't have to work.

Very pretty

The LA Dodgers Stand Strong Against Fascism:

“This morning, ICE agents came to Dodger Stadium and requested permission to access the parking lots. They were denied entry to the grounds by the organization. Tonight’s game will be played as scheduled.”

You made my day! Thank you

Do yah think?

The fact that he is a Florida resident pales in light of the fact he is the dumbest person in the Senate.

His opinion of 2016 candidate Trump to his current obsequious ass kissing shows Marco holds no core principles.
He wants power

Even *if* you accept Stephen Miller’s (textually, historically, and morally indefensible) claim that undocumented immigrants are not entitled to due process, you’d *still* need due process to ensure that the individuals at issue are, in fact, undocumented.

His argument fails even on its own terms.

Good Night World

My husband worked for the federal government for 38 years, had exceptional performance evaluations every year, and won several national awards from nin government organizations. He never got a "bonus" from his agency.

Once again, you have articulated exactly what the majority of Democrats are thinking.
Repubs don't want to govern. They want to rule.
They don't understand the programs they don't personally use, so get rid of them.

I’m not gonna pretend to know the mechanics of a shadow cabinet but we need one in the US. Someone to hold a press conference to refute everything RFK is saying about autism, for one.

Our cover this week.

This is your regular reminder that executive orders are not royal decrees. Because America has no king.

Maybe promoting a guy who only qualified for weekend duty on Faux News to lead the world's largest employer wasn't such a good idea.
He ranted against the "media" when 3 months ago HE WAS THE MEDIA

My eldest daughter Claudia once asked me why there isn’t a provision that says that convicted felons can’t be president and this was *exactly* my answer

Trump’s Stasi. Our waking nightmare.

Very pretty. She captured it perfectly.
