Republicans Are Damaged by Their Own Cruelty
They’re pathologically unwilling to help Americans in need — and Democrats should hammer this home
“But it’s now clear Trump doesn’t even understand why healthcare relies on insurance, why we can’t pay medical expenses out of pocket. Hint: You never know when you’ll need expensive treatment, but should the need arise, only the ultra-wealthy can come up with the cash.”

On this Veterans Day, I'm reflecting on the fact that our Commander-in-Chief is a lying draft dodger who kicked out 5,000 trans service members who, unlike him, were serving ably and honorably, after hiring a white supremacist, alcoholic TV chatterbox to run our military.

Any country or culture with a history of colonialism has absolutely fuckall valid to say about the desirability of immigrants or immigration.
Yeah I said it. And you can read it a thousand times more, if you're too stupid or bigoted to understand the correlation the first time around.

A scientific report released last month announced the start of a “a grim new chapter for life on Earth.” Why aren’t our government officials and corporate leaders more alarmed?https://newyorkermag.visitlink.me/C2S7qr

Gutted by the Dems caving after the blue-wave wins of last week? Sick & tired of us snatching defeat from the jaws of victory? I hear you! Might I suggest you calm yourself, relax, take a deep, cleansing breath... then see if this photo of 2 pandas cuddling is of any help.

Everyone saying that last week’s elections marked the beginning of the end of the MAGA era really underestimated Democrats’ ability to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory.

Capitulating Democratic senators waited until after the election, indicating they know capitulation was a bad politics that bothers their voters and reduces their chances of retaking power.

The only people Senate Dems negotiated with was each other, to see who could take the Primary heat, and make sure not one of them ever faces repercussions for selling us out. It was a collective decision by all. Those eight are just the fat happy trash who were willing to put their names on it.

UnitedHealth Is Cashing In On The Open Enrollment Crisis
Whether or not Congress extends the Affordable Care Act’s enhanced premium tax credits, health care giants are poised to extract new profits from patient pain.
⚠️ Americans are choosing between health insurance and groceries. Meanwhile, UnitedHealth quietly told investors it expects even bigger profits, no matter what Congress does.
The shutdown is chaos for you. For insurers? It’s a payday.

imo, fundraising to win an election, fundraising off the election win, caving so things get worse so they can fundraise off the Lucy-with-the-football idea that they’ll prevent things from getting worse if we reelect them.

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.

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.

agreeing to make a terrible deal while your main opponent is quite literally being boo'd on live tv by an entire stadium of people is the kind of political instinct you'd normally only find in a 3 week old dead goldfish
