I remember seeing similar articles in People Magazine about Donald Trump and family in the 80s. I wouldn't believe a single word from that source.

For me, the enrollment period ended two days ago. Do you mean reopen it?

The deadline was yesterday.

Too late.

Speaking as an American who both works with non-Americans and travels internationally a lot, I can say that this isn't true. In my experience, the "whole rest of the world" understands that our dickhead president doesn't represent the rest of us.

Rob Reiner: I'm going to make a coming of age drama, a fantasy adventure story, a romantic comedy, a psychological horror and then a courtroom drama.

Us: Across your entire career?

Reiner: In a 6 year period.

Us: That sounds-

Reiner: -Each one will be arguably the best movie in that genre.

Bongino saying the quiet--and cynical--part out loud.

In other words: I was making money shoveling conspiracy bullshit without having any facts and conning my audience to make a buck. After I leave the FBI, I will get back to that.

What a confession.

Unbelievable.

Very few things piss me off more than anti-vax morons killing their children.

Did she miss though? Seems to me that the vote to release the Epstein files passed near unanimously, in no small way because of her public statements on the matter.

Trump Bows to Reality in Epstein Reversal, Beating a Rare Retreat
Faced with a mass defection on a bill to demand the release of the Epstein files, the president rushed to avoid an embarrassing loss, suggesting a slip in his iron grip on the G.O.P.

NYT declares that Trump has been forced to make a rare retreat on Epstein ... 72 hours after Trump started retreating at full sprint from some of his tariffs.

At the same time the NY Times was hyping Hillary Clinton's emails, it had a reporter with emails from Jeffrey Epstein that were highly damaging to Trump.

The more NYT apologists try to minimize this the clearer it becomes that they don't understand why much of the public doesn't trust legacy media.

Anyway a great way to radicalize people is for them to realize that you just abandoned their chance at being able to access and afford health care because you didn’t like waiting in line at the airport.

The ACA made my whole self-employed life possible. For almost ten years, I was able to build a career that actually worked for me AND keep receiving necessary care to address the consequences of childhood medical neglect. And I still deserved better. We all do.

My God, what a horrible, pitiful, defeatist, tone deaf, and just plain…WRONG thing to say. Retire now @SenAngusKing if that’s how you feel. Retire now and put someone else in your place who will stand up to the fascist in the White House.

How about we shut down the government for this very popular and specific goal and then, hear me out, we hold out for like a month and a half and then, ok this part is important, after a watershed election where we ran the table, ONLY THEN, fold and don't get the one thing we said we wanted.

Senate Democrats are offering a path forward: Reopen the government and extend the health care tax credits for 1 year to ensure millions of Americans don’t see their premiums double in January.

The President & Congressional Republicans need to come to the table to negotiate.

My new political party needs to immediately rediscover that this is a big, politically diverse country. Mamdani can’t win in South Carolina. I couldn’t win in NYC. We need ALL Dems - from super progressive to moderate/conservative - and run them where they can win. πŸ’― this.πŸ‘‡
