Newsom's latest troll 😆

My political hot take is that US voters should be able to recall elected representatives via petition - at any time.
No more hiding behind election terms.

Jim Acosta @ @Acosta • 28m Democrats had tons of energy coming out of last week's elections. Tonight's deal with GOP will outrage progressives and divide the party once again. For what? The possibility there will be a vote on Obamacare subsidies down the road? Which Trump will likely hold hostage? Huh?

The art of folding a winning hand

Post from Pete Buttigieg that reads: It's a bad deal. Everyday life - making it better and more affordable - must always be our bottom line. For months, I’ve been hearing from people bracing for their health insurance bills to skyrocket - so much that some will lose coverage altogether. Some say they simply haven't even opened their letter yet, dreading the bad news. Any deal that fails to address this directly is a bad deal.

The silver lining to the surrender by 8 Dems is that the House GOP must return to vote on it. Johnson must swear in Grijalva, and the discharge petition on the Epstein files must force a full floor vote. Stay tuned.

In the most predictable development ever, Mike Johnson is not committing to hold a House vote on ACA subsidies

The President wouldn't last five minutes as an air traffic controller, and after everything they've been through - and the way this administration has treated them from Day One - he has no business shitting on them now.

This deal to reopen the government is fucking disgraceful.

Tens of millions will lose their healthcare. Trump will be emboldened.

This is exactly what’s wrong with Democratic Party leadership and why we need more people in Congress who will actually hold the line.

🤮Melania is named Fox Nation's "Patriot of the Year" for CHILDREN'S advocacy work, while Donald protects Pedophiles & helps CHILDREN starve!

Donald's Big Ugly Bill cuts $300 billion from FOOD AID for 16 million SNAP children & he now halts SNAP payments!

oh snap

#Voters #MadeTheirPoint Love this cartoon 🌊🌊💙

Cutting flights because of the govt shutdown is a stunt, plain and simple

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

If you just cancel flights, then they're actually not late! Brilliant stuff from Sean Duffy here

Well, that certainly cleared that up.

We just wanted to say thank you to everyone! ICE agents keep lying under oath, and you’re the reason the truth is coming out.

Your videos and documentation have been crucial in revealing the truth behind those claims.

Makes more sense now

🚨I can’t tell where this officer who swore to “protect and serve” by way of starvation is being filmed, but I can see he takes great pleasure in depravity. What a disgrace to humanity! Shame!

Let this sink in. The President of the United States is now appealing a court order forcing him to feed starving children.

Dear Walmart,

Consideeing you have more employees on SNAP than any other company — instead of simply having a ‘cheaper’ Thanksgiving bundle, how about giving your underpaid employees who must rely on SNAP for survival, one for free? It’s the least you can do. And I stress, the LEAST…

Good grief. This administration is so soft on crime.

If you see me still working at 103, please walk up behind me and cave the back of my head in with a shovel.

The same guy who "doesn’t want to hear about affordability" posted about his new marble bathroom 7 times last week.

If you were looking at a newspaper (or its website) this morning and didn't see this iconic photo, it was an intentional choice to pander.

Several states (including California, Michigan, Oregon, and Wisconsin) have announced that they’ve begun processing full food stamp payments. Thank you to those states for stepping up to support families in need!

The Trump Administration’s cruelty knows no bounds. It’s one thing to spar with your political opponents—but starving children and seniors to make a point? That’s negligence.

I’m proud to join @repjahanahayes.bsky.social in prohibiting this administration from playing politics with people’s lives.

If we don't test for COVID, then there's no COVID! If there's no flights, then there's no late flights! Brilliant!

This has me thinking about a mahogany box lined in ruffled cream satin.

The entire right-wing propaganda machine came after Zohran Mamdani.

The president and his allies came after him.

Democratic leaders, by and large, did not have his back until the last minute.

He still won, turning out historic numbers and inspiring young voters.

His politics can win anywhere.
