Hm. Really.

A reminder that in 2022, President Biden signed the “Eliminating Limits to Justice for Child Sex Abuse Victims Act,” eliminating the statute of limitations to file civil action for federal sex offenses. Seems relevant.

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.
How does the US have any jurisdiction over a cemetery in another country even if it is an American cemetery...

SAN FRANCISCO, CALIFORNIA,
Join me for a night of renewing laughter at The Palace of Fine Arts—NEW YEAR”S EVE—Wed., Dec. 31. www.purplepass.com/events/33288... No one ever seems to say "hubba hubba" anymore, but I would like to.
Crucial thing to watch: The Dem blowout wins suggest it'll be way more risky for GOPers to gerrymander, because the GOP safer seats may become more vulnerable than expected. Rs in those seats will now be very nervous.
Exchange on this w/Dem operative Jessica Post:

"Ms. Monahan, 61, paid $439 a month for her coverage in 2025.
When she went to shop for next year’s plan, she learned that the monthly cost would jump to $1,059 for the same plan with an annual deductible of $7,100..."
Thanks, GOP congress! Thanks, Trump!

Also genuinely absurd to hear these folks get all lawyerly now!

Last year, Andrew Cuomo brought in nearly $5 million for "consulting."
We don't know who paid him.
Or who he now owes.
1. This week, news emerged that former trans athlete, student at Middlebury, and advocate for trans rights, Lia Smith, was found dead.
Her death was ruled a suicide.
But I argue that it's not only a suicide. Every trans suicide is a murder by those in power.
