Also, it probably shouldn't escape our notice that the aging, mentally declining despot just explicitly ordered the US military to arrest US citizens on American soil:

This is an old formula used by authoritarian regimes. Stoke chaos and blame scapegoats to justify the use of force.

They want the mandate but not the accountability.

That's not leadership.

I was raising small children & facing down demons all at once. I was damned my kids were going to suffer what I did. It was never easy.

I look back & see @ each painful juncture, there was someone who helped carry me. I try to do that now. ๐Ÿ’›๐Ÿ’š๐Ÿ’œ

Good question! Stay in Washington to fight the fight, but can you do more to keep your constituents informed about what you are doing and what they can do to help?

I was vaguely familiar with the name Bad Bunny before last week but after seeing the complete meltdown and histrionics gushing from White Wing Americans, Iโ€™m going to need a better sound system in my Jeep so I can crack it up every time I drive by one of them.

Every single one of these North Carolina politicians voted to shut down the federal government rather than allow the Affordable Care Act to continue operating, which will result in a doubling of everyone's health insurance premiums.

Of course, their healthcare will remain unaffected.

#BlueSkyVets Republicans claim Dems support "free healthcare for illegal aliens" however, mainstream Democratic policies don't endorse comprehensive taxpayer-funded healthcare for undocumented immigrants.

Itโ€™s illegal! Trump and the entire GOP is lying to you.

The Republican Shutdown Argument is a Giant Lie No, Democrats arenโ€™t trying to fund health care for โ€œillegal aliens.โ€

"Not a single Democrat has talked about wanting to fund care for people in the United States unlawfully. Instead, what Democrats have said is they want to undo Medicaid cuts projected to leave nearly 10 million Americans uninsured." A smidge different.

Arduous and Unequal: The Fight to Get FEMA Housing Assistance After Helene An analysis by ProPublica and The Assembly of the more rural counties in North Carolina hardest hit by Helene shows that the households that got the most aid tended to have the highest incomes.

ProPublica and @theassemblync.bsky.social found that in some North Carolina counties, homeowners with the highest incomes received two to three times as much FEMA housing assistance as those with lower incomes after Hurricane Helene.
