Anderson Cooper: So it's more expensive to have a chronically homeless person living on the streets than it is to actually subsidize an apartment for them?

Answer: Yes, we’re paying more as taxpayers to walk past that person on the street and do nothing… #HousingFirst

It should be brought up every time he's mentioned.
In any news article, any interview, any history book.

1. He can't extend the subsidies. That's what Congress is for.
2. MAGA spent some political capital through the shutdown saying they had a better plan.
3. The plan was a nonstarter.
4. Now the Dems re opened the GOV and Maga gets to swallow more Obamacare.

Dems succeed. Against all odds.

Yo let's fucking go Europe
BREAKING: This is huge news, the EU's equivalent of the 🇺🇸Supreme Court's 2015 Obergefell v. Hodges ruling.

🇪🇺Court of Justice just ruled all 🇪🇺countries must recognise same-sex marriages granted in other member states.

This effectively legalises gay marriage across 🇪🇺

Someone explain it to my 17-years-of-service arse like I'm 10 what business the SecDef has publicly nitpicking the uniform setup of a Retired Naval Captain?

Also putting " " around Kelly's *earned* rank like 🤨. (FYSA: a Navy Captain is two ranks higher than the Army Major rank Hegseth held)

Yes, HID headlights are very bright but the bigger problem is the proliferation of gargantuan vehicles with 5’+ hood heights so that if you’re driving a normal sized car their headlights are at your eye level rather than seat level like they’re supposed to be.

Nice to know that "forgetting exactly who your base is" douchebaggery exists on both sides of the aisle once you hit a certain strata of elitism.

Alan "I'm in the Epstein emails" Dersh and Dana "ex-NRA" Loesch? I haven't heard her name in YEARS since she was picking fights with people on Twitter.

Trump and his Administration are targeting me because I said something they didn’t like — but here’s the thing: I won’t be intimidated into silence. I’ve overcome challenges a lot tougher than Donald Trump or Pete Hegseth.

Unlike 98 percent of what people call rage bait, this is actually rage bait. Nobody would write this kind of list if it didn’t make people mad. That’s its purpose. It has no other.
The movie listed at #1 is so incredibly misplaced that it calls into question the veracity of the entire list. It belongs on the list, yes, but SO MUCH further down. An absolute, credibility-wrecking flub. Boo, @variety.com! Boo!

so if i understand this correctly, gaines has made her career by publicly calling trans athletes predators and threats to women while completely failing to ever mention even once that her mentor/college swimming coach was sexually assaulting and harassing women on the team while she was there?
Riley Gaines climbed the MAGA ladder by vilifying trans women in sports. Now, teammates are speaking out about the real problems on her team: abusive coaching, sexual harassment, eating disorders. ow.ly/o3wq50XuCzp
