It’s not like they were 8. 15 is different than 8, I’m told.

He thinks he’s so witty, but this may be his dumbest nickname yet. No, wait. I say that every time. Every one of his nicknames is equally childish and obvious, though I do still get a few giggles out of Ron Desanctimonious.

Californians voted to redistrict the state in response to Texas Republicans ramming through an unprecedented mid-decade partisan gerrymander.

Now Bondi is suing California β€” and not Texas β€” to override the voters.

The blatant and disgusting partisanship from the DOJ is destroying the department.

The centrists in the Senate Democratic caucus saw that the country was rallying to the party in the 2025 elections and resolved that they would do anything they could to kill that momentum.

Unfortunately, the members of his cult are just as gullible/stupid so they will take this story and run with it, and when confronted with the truth, will double down on it. They will never believe this isn’t true.

FOX: So you would ask Speaker Johnson to recall the House?

GOP REP. KEVIN KILEY: Not only would I, I've asked him to do it repeatedly. There's no justification. And honestly, it's Republican voters who should be most upset about this when they delivered a GOP majority and now that's being wasted

idk who needs to hear this but the President of the United States of America is APPEALING a judges order forcing him to fully fund SNAP.
Yes β€” DJT is appealing a ruling telling him to NOT starve his own people. Let that simmer.

Chris Murphy: "There will be pretty substantial damage to a Dem brand that has been rehabilitated if on the heels of an election in which the people told us to keep fighting, we immediately stop... if we surrender without having gotten anything, I worry it'll be hard to get them back up off the mat"

I just can’t look at that guy without recalling the moment from the Real World where he was dancing naked up against a window. Let this be a lesson to you, kids. You can be a complete ***hole, even as a grown adult, and still be taken seriously by both Fox News and the Republican party.

Beshear: Let me be clear. The president has both the funding and the authority to fund snap during a shutdown. In fact, every other president in every other shutdown has done so. People going hungry in this instance is a choice that this president has made.

I really don’t think this has anything to do with the FAA or the current administration. Seems more likely it was either a maintenance error or a freak thing. I can’t stand Trump, but I don’t think this has anything to do with him. Truly, that doesn’t add up.

I would really like to share these figures with my MAGA family members who are thrilled about the SNAP freeze, but I am very cautious about only using facts and figures I can back up so they can’t argue with me. Can you share your source, if you have it?
