Our entire government is shut down because Republicans in power refuse to lower health care costs.

I was just mean to Steve Bannon in a way that may get published, so I can only presume I'm on some list now.

Donald Trump is a wacko FRAUD businessman who attempts to build his own ego through scamming everyday Americans.

This behavior is not normal, stop normalizing it.

This is why I support DEI. The existing system operates to exclude women and minorities. Period.

Can't wait to watch Mitch McConnell vote in favor of RFK Jr.'s nomination to be the head of HHS along with his lawyer who sued the FDA to revoke the polio vaccine's approval.

Mitch McConnell suffered from polio as a child.

Watch, he'll vote for RFK Jr. anyway.

Oh, my goodness!
