MAGA is cracking under the weight of its failures A declining president, an election stomping, and all-encompassing incompetence are all taking a toll.

I come bearing good news. Well, a little good news.

I can’t help but feel that our service members would prefer a salary that enabled them to feed their families without having to rely on SNAP benefits.

Privatizing the commissary system will only make their situations worse And a spruced up golf course won’t do a damn thing to help.

Why Hospital Policies Matter in States That Ban Abortion Our first-of-its-kind data analysis found that a seismic split emerged in how medical institutions in Texas' two largest metro areas, Houston and Dallas, treated miscarrying patients β€” and in their ou...

The rate of sepsis in Houston surged 63% after Texas banned abortion.

In the Dallas-Fort Worth area, where hospital leaders empowered doctors to intervene before patients’ conditions worsened, it rose 29%.

The real problem is that there is only one of you and coverage of all of Trump's evil deeds requires at least three or four of you.

Seems the Republicans forgot that we have the oldest average population in the country. And that population relies on mail-in ballots to vote.
November can bring hazardous driving conditions here in Maine. Did they really want 70+ year olds driving to the polls?

In Maine, voters yesterday were asked to vote on a set of election changes that would have made voting more difficult.

The question went down in flames, with 63% voting against it.

But importantly, it was unpopular even in _many_ places that Trump won last year.

Voters want to make voting easier!

MainersΒ defeat Republican effort to institute voter ID and limit absentee voting The no side of Question 1 had 60.2% of votes to 39.8% for the yes side when the Bangor Daily News and its national partner, Decision Desk HQ, called the race at 9:26 p.m. Tuesday.

Maine has voted in a landslide to reject a Republican-supported ballot initiative that would have restricted voting access heading into the critical 2026 midterms

Politicians should probably get on Bluesky to get better in touch with the American electorate.

Even up here in Maine, Trumpist favored propositions are failing. So far the vote is no on voter ID and yes on additional gun laws.

We have an Admin that constantly lies to the public, and a MSM that obediently reports those lies. It does appear that it is much harder for them to lie to a judge, so if I want to know the truth, I find it in the briefs, opinions and rulings of the courts that your analysis always illuminates.
Thx.

(4) Trump and the Republicans don't have an advantage over Democrats because they *better understand heartland Americans.*

They have an advantage over Democrats because they created their own universe of propaganda outlets, and then went out and bought all the mainstream outlets.

Duh.

In John 6:15, Jesus miraculously feeds 5,000 people and the crowd's so impressed they try to seize Jesus and make him their "king," by force.

But Jesus "withdrew again to a mountain by himself" to avoid their attempt, bc he was not about earthly power.

Jesus = "No Kings."

Some prominent Dems should get out in front of Roberts & when there’s something likely to go to the Supreme Court just say wherever anyone will listen something like β€œDonald Trump owns the Supreme Court, they give him everything, & they know it’s bullshit, which is why they never write opinions”

Problem is, he's not using his own money for his current political retribution lawfare (which he knows he can't win, but can cost the defendants time and money) he is using our tax dollars and the federal government.

I remember when the first two digits were letters, which made them easier to remember. And is why the telephone dials showed letters under the numbers.

That is so much baloney.

Look at the million $+ salaries and benefits CEOs of health insurances companies, corporate hospital chains, pharmaceuticals and med equipment suppliers.

Doctors' salaries are chump change compared to the real robber barons who make today's healthcare unaffordable.
