Lover of books, plants, bichons, and my family (some more than others). I remember how hard we had to fight for a simple bankaccount, credit cards and doing away with the draft.

Speaker Mike Johnson’s press conference was cut off the air by MSNBC, after he once again lied about Obamacare subsidies. Host Ana set the record straight: “Just to make sure we don’t offer misleading information ... There is no access for undocumented immigrants to get Obamacare....”

Remember the Pam Bondi dynamic: for two decades she's had the "well we have to book SOMEBODY, even that idiot Bondi" role in cable news. Now she has stature and professional hair colorists and ad libs written for her.

She's in Pam Bondi heaven and will do or say anything to stay there

Johnson: Miss Grijalva has not yet had a scheduled date because she was elected after the house was out of session,

Gallego: You don't want her to be on the Epstein discharge.

Johnson: You guys are experts at red herrings.

Gallego: This is an excuse

there is a government shutdown with no end in sight and it’s not even really the lead story rn because the president can’t stop invading American cities for no reason other than spite

Pritzker: "He wants to militarize major cities because he wants us to get used to the idea of troops on the streets. I believe he's gonna post people outside of polling places and if he needs to in order to control those elections, he'll assume control of the ballot boxes & count the votes himself"

Starving children screaming for food as US aid cuts unleash devastation and death across Myanmar U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio has repeatedly said “no one has died" because of his government’s decision to gut its foreign aid program.

The Americans starving these children wear crucifixes and call themselves “Christians.”

People are not what they tell you they are; they are how they behave.

The cost. When we first went to the hospital they said it would be a minimum of 250 euros ($290). Now let me ask folks who made it this far through the thread what do you think everything I described would have cost at a U.S. hospital. I have no idea. $10,000? More? (6)

This administration is flooding the zone so furiously that people have largely lost track of the lethal attacks on boats in the Caribbean, the gov’t shutdown, the economy, failed release of the Epstein files & so much else. It’s a tactic of would-be strongmen.

Pritzker: "It's unconscionable. This has never happened before. They're calling out troops onto the streets of a state that doesn't want them and they're not even telling us where they're gonna go, what they're gonna do. This hasn't happened I don't think since the Civil War."

I don't understand why I see things so differently. I see a health insurance industry that thinks it's entitled to charge people 1/3rd of their income for healthcare. That industry shouldn't be "fixed." It should be burned to the ground and its ashes pissed on.

The shutdown isn’t just about healthcare - it’s also about Congress reining in the president. We’re going to have a fight, so let’s have it now.

Tomorrow the Epstein survivors will storm Capitol Hill to demand release of the files. I hope new Congresswoman Adelita Grijalva is sworn in at their press conference by another judge or official who is authorized to do so (doesn’t have to be the Speaker).

I can’t believe I have to say this, but historically, masked men who kidnap families in the middle of the night are usually not the good guys.

Perhaps you’ve noticed; the more immigrants they detain and deport…the more violent the United States is becoming. I see a clear connection.
