I'll give you a break since you're Australian and don't know how things work in the U.S. government, but Republicans control House, Senate, and the Presidency. Democrats don't have much power by design at this point until or unless voters give them more seats.

Opinion | Project 2025 proposes banning porn. Here's what that really means. The far-right game plan for a second Trump term defines pornography to include "transgender ideology."

Wait until they realize that Project 2025 criminalizes porn... Yeah, it's in there. www.msnbc.com/opinion/msnb...

Sen. Ruben Gallego says the impacts of the shutdown pale in comparison to the calamity that would ensue if the Obamacare subsidies expire: โ€œIf we donโ€™t get ACA tax credit extensions, over 100,000 Arizonans are going to double their premiums on their health insurance. Thatโ€™s painful and permanent.โ€

Whoa! The shutdownโ€™s ripple effect starting to hit.

Burbank Airport in LA County has no air traffic controllers on duty due to sick calls, last-minute day-off requests, and staffing shortages.

If youโ€™re flying anywhere in the country, check for delays.

There's $20 billion to bail out Argentina, but nary a penny to help Americans with student loans, not a dime to lower their healthcare costs, not even a dollar to help with workers' childcare.

Senator Durbin has a few words for Pam Bondi.

A long list of ethics violations ensues, with defendants being let off the hook who are politically connected to the Trump regime..

The Department of Justice is clearly off the rails.

This is the 84 yr old sister of a friend of mine.

She was attacked this weekend by federal agents in front of the ICE building in Portland.

They had marched from the park to the bldg and were just standing there when Trump's thugs rushed out and battered them.

Sprayed with chemicals and beaten.

So it essentially means people have to pay for a doctor appointment to get authorization to get a Covid shot. AND now toddlers will have to get three separate jabs instead of one MMR shot, on the sage advice of fake Dr. Trump.

The Supreme Court passed Ghislaine Maxwell back to Fat Satan so he can give her the blackmail pardon.
