LOL faux doctor oz with the decrease in the price of ozempic son Americans will lose a 134 billion pounds. that's almost 400 pounds per person. with trump's inability to understand percentages, this is the most math challenged administration ever

2/2 Trump is touting lower prices by citing a walmart.Thanksgiving menu package?That has a lower price than last year

The difference is that the new package contains at least six fewer items and many of the items in the package are now walmart brand items, not name brand items

Editing federal employees’ emails to blame Democrats for shutdown violated their First Amendment rights, judge says | CNN Politics A federal judge ruled Friday that the Department of Education violated the First Amendment rights of some agency employees when it sent out-of-office messages on their behalf that blamed Democrats for...

The administration tinkered with the out-of-office messages for furloughed workers so that they included language blaming the shutdown on β€œDemocrat Senators” who β€œare blocking” passage of a β€œclean continuing resolution” that would fund the government.

1/2 I really really hope that SCOTUS simply refuses to hear this case.

Kim Davis has NO credibility. Davis did not want her signature on marriage certificates that would signal her personal endorsement of gay marriage That would NOT be a personal endorsement signing as the clerk

The fact that Trump is appealing a judges ruling to pay SNAP in full means that the GOP really DOES want to hurt people- the shutdown is a GOP issue

2/2 Addressing healthcare and the economy? and delivering?

Delivering higher health care premium costs and delivering food shortages to people in need. And you are delighted?

don't forget the overwhelming approval of redistricting in California to offset Texas gerrymandering. The difference in the two is also stark- Texas did it from the legislature which is already heavily GOP due to current gerrymanders- California let the voters decide democratically

Despite trump's whining, he's been treated better by the d o j than HRC was. when he became a viable candidate for reelection, they shut down their investigations into his stealing up classified documents. comey blew it in the last days of twenty sixteen with the email issue

1/2 Who wants to bet it was right wing voter suppression tactics

Bomb threats that officials described as hoaxes were emailed on Tuesday morning to cities across New Jersey, disrupting voting and resulting in the brief closure or relocation of polling sites in some locations.

I see it all the time from rightwingers- arguing a policy issue for example, tax breaks for the wealthy and they immediately pivot to trans-this and gender that.
It’s almost as if their policy positions can’t be defended.

NY mayor candidate Mamdani has been known to use the Citi-E-bikes. Once while getting ready to ride one a bystander yelled "communist." "It’s pronounced CYCLIST" Mamdani replied.

Republicans don't want to add washington d c and puerto.Rico, as states, because they know, it will likely mean four new democratic senators.But yet republicans added north and south dakota, instead of just a dakota.So they could get four republican senators.
