Hey Christians! The Bible literally tells you to treat foreigners with kindness. If you voted for trump or ice, hope you have a good excuse ready when you get to the pearly gates.

True story: Schumer got spanked…
And it’s not even subtle. Ending the shutdown handed Trump a win, gutted Democrats’ leverage, and left millions still waiting for relief.
It was a surrender.

Today in history, 1898: After voters elect a biracial city council in Wilmington, N.C., a mob of white supremacists overthrows the local government in a coup d’état. The mob also killed as many as 300 black residents in what is known as the Wilmington Massacre. /1

What? Republicans won't vote for the health and wellbeing of Americans? Who could have seen this coming except all of us?
UPDATE: The Senate votes 53-47 to shoot down the Baldwin amendment to extend ACA funds for 1 year. A party-line vote with every Republican rejecting it.
An important vote in this series: Tammy Baldwin’s proposal to extend ACA expiring funds for 1 year. It’s structured as a motion to table (i.e. scrap it from the amendment tree). But it’ll show the appetite (or lack thereof) in the Senate to address this issue.

Step 1: stop giving them money! Shop local, shop small, shop minority owned
Step 2: petition your reps to fully defund gov contracts to private corporations and instead fund programs like NASA
Step 3: legislate pay caps, tax the rich, punish corp greed
Step 4: enjoy the better world we made

It’s us versus the rich and they own the politicians. We’re going to have to solve this ourselves.

Today in history, 1969: “Sesame Street” debuts. Developer Joan Ganz Cooney wanted to create programming for preschoolers that was both entertaining and educational to help underprivileged 3- to 5-year-olds prepare for kindergarten. It became the most-watched children’s TV show. /1

Probably worth noting that he STILL has no power of the purse and cannot actually authorize that bonus, but I'm sure he's hard at work "recommending" it.
The President wouldn't last five minutes as an air traffic controller, and after everything they've been through - and the way this administration has treated them from Day One - he has no business shitting on them now.

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.

How refreshing, an honest politician.
Speaker Johnson has literally said he's "not promising anyone anything."
For once, I believe him.

Maybe @parkroseperma.bsky.social is right, we could be seeing the initial spark towards universal health care. Trump even stated that he wants to get rid of insurance, which would mean you'd be bankrupt after even the most basic procedure. But this was not the way.

This deal to reopen the government is fucking disgraceful.
Tens of millions will lose their healthcare. Trump will be emboldened.
This is exactly what’s wrong with Democratic Party leadership and why we need more people in Congress who will actually hold the line.
