I don't see the "sellout" here. Every day without paychecks for millions of federal workers is a problem. There's only so long you can drag this out. If the Senate GOP caucus is absolutely dead set on breaking ACA subsidies, well, unfortunately, the American people gave them an electoral majority.

Anyone who uses "Walmart Mike" is a terminally online psychopath who is part of an ongoing years long harassment campaign.
I don't give a shit what anyone thinks about Michael exactly, or whether you agree with him: this is just ongoing, disgusting harassment similar to that directed at Stancil.

They are actually, fully ratshit insane. They have zero concept of what this looks like. They must think this pencils out to people blaming Dems.
BREAKING: DOJ goes to SCOTUS trying to stop a district court order that USDA pay out full SNAP benefits this month.
The First Circuit denied an administrative stay, but has not yet ruled on the stay request. And, CNN reported that USDA is already processing payments.
DOJ went to SCOTUS anyway.

At a minimum what needs to happen is the DHS needs to be pulled apart by the next Dem admin, ICE smashed to atoms and every single person that worked for it should be made completely unemployable in federal government ever again
I’m sure there are other ideas.
I’m sure some of these won’t work.
But I read the (valid) pardon post as I was getting into the shower, had these 6 ideas by time I came out.
There are a LOT of options out there!
And NOW—not 2026 or 2028—is time to debate them and work them out.

after reading this opinion, I’m comfortable saying that the court’s liberal justices are no longer behaving as if the court they sit on is legitimate and their dissents exist mostly to explain to future iterations of the judicial system why the court should never operate like this again
SCOTUS, on the shadow docket, just 6-3 permitted the regime to require sex-at-birth identifiers on passports.
Jackson, joined by Sotomayor and Kagan, dissents.
Fuck this illegitimate court.

That's only because of Oreos Georg, who is an outlier and should not have been counted.
If he is saying billion, with a B, that's about 400 pounds per person, which seems like an unhealthy amount of weight to lose. bsky.app/profile/acyn...
Oz: We thought it was 125 million pounds. Our estimate is Americans will lose 135 billion pounds by the midterms

No. 25A319
DONALD J. TRUMP, PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED
STATES, ET AL. v. ASHTON ORR, ET AL.
ON APPLICATION FOR STAY
[November 6, 2025]
This case concerns an Executive Branch policy requiring
all new passports to display an individual’s biological sex at
birth. The United States District Court for the District of
Massachusetts preliminarily enjoined the Government
from enforcing the policy, and the First Circuit declined to
stay the injunction pending appeal. The Government then
filed this stay application. Applying our familiar stay fac-
tors at this preliminary stage, we grant the application.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:36eqtmzysqf7wsslczw4uxcd/bafkreievxyvqikl7wmrg5jkqhsrta5l5xfq272x7caunvxka7vtuzp7hoa@jpeg)

this mentality always ignores that Republicans don't respond to current popular sentiments, they drowned their base with a fire hose of propaganda until they've been terrified or enraged into believing what serves the Republican political project
There's also a weird conventional wisdom forming that the Democratic agenda is toxically unpopular and that Republicans are delivering what voters want.
This is laughably false. Trump is the most unpopular president in modern history and his entire agenda is underwater.

Like I always say here: these are not allegories or metaphors, they're resonances. They should be interpreted on vibes and emotional impact rather than trying to take them at face value in universe.
like many ppl have pointed out that anti-mutant feelings in the x-men is an extended metaphor for racial prejudice but if there were actual x-men they SHOULD be under some kind of government supervision honestly
