Louisiana โ€” the red state that Mike Johnson nominally represents โ€” has the second highest percentage of residents enrolled in SNAP in the nation.

Theyโ€™re pushing this fantasy about these being โ€œDemocrat programsโ€ used only in blue states but thatโ€™s a PR fantasy divorced from reality.

When the end comes, there must be a purge of the government. The guilty must be hunted down. ... Thatโ€™s a very tall order made much taller by the fact that rightwing propaganda will continue to work in the shadows if the impartial administrators of justice continue to pretend it doesnโ€™t exist.

I don't think that independent newsletters can really make up for the gutting of traditional news media. but fwiw...like, I think traditional news media could benefit by being willing to actually say obviously evil things are evil? 1

Today is Day 34 of the Republican shutdown. Your regular reminders:

1. Republicans control the White House, Senate and House.

2. GOP making deep cuts to Medicaid, Medicare and ACA.

3. Democrats are fighting to lower costs, cancel the cuts and save healthcare for Americans.

GOP should be blaming Ds for government shutdown,but they just can't help themselves and have to remind Americans that they hate them and want them all to starve to death.

with 4 more safe D senators, the Senate would still be wildly tipped towards Rs, btw. Rs are so used to running shit candidates on crap policies that the thought of having to actually compete on anything like a fair playing field gives them vapors. 1

Maybe someone should sue the WH for claiming this is unedited, since the 73 minute version is still marked โ€œcondensed for clarityโ€ and doesnโ€™t match the official transcript. I think weโ€™re all owed millions.

I certainly wish this were the case, but...probably not, alas.

I really don't know if Johnson thinks this. But this is an argument against Trump and MAGA explaining why they don't just pass their priorities.

the real reason is that their priorities are very unpopular.
