Damn facts keep getting in 47’s way. Unfortunately MAGAts don’t give a damn about facts. I’m surprised 47 didn’t accuse Obama of doing it.

“In fascist America, nothing is simple or as it seems. When troops were sent to Washington, D.C., it wasn’t just about crime. It was about testing the waters for Chicago and Portland. … It’s about setting the stage for total military occupation.” Marc Elias, Democracy Docket, 10/9/2025

This is so indefensibly insane: Speaker Johnson is refusing to seat Congresswoman-elect Adelita Grijalva because she'll be the 218th vote to release the Epstein files. Johnson swore in Rep Walkinshaw (VA) w/in 24 hours.

Johnson is abandoning his job to instead protect a convicted child sex predator

Here are the facts:
Dems’ official position in the shutdown standoff, as laid out in an alternate funding bill, calls for undoing the $1 trillion in Medicaid cuts Repubs enacted earlier this year & extending subsidies for Americans who buy health insurance from ACA exchanges. It’s pretty simple.
