The biggest reason the Senate should never end the filibuster is because both parties advocate for the end of it when they are the ones in power. It’s one of the few remaining tools we have against extremism in Congress.

The dems put the country through 40 days of hell to come way with basically nothing. This is why Dems always lose and why the GOP always wins. Their lack of empathy and compassion is their greatest strength and our greatest weakness. This will cost the Dems the midterms. Mark my words.

When democrats cave and reopen the government without ACA subsidies they will alienate base voters as well as swing voters concerned about healthcare costs. The RIF reversals they get in exchange will be short lived and quickly reneged by Trump after. Dems will end up losing the midterms over this.

It’s not lost on me that Melania did not like having to decorate the East Wing of the White House for Christmas….

Since 1995, all four government shutdown have occurred during periods where the Republicans controlled at least one house of Congress. In 3 of the 4, Republicans controlled both house of Congress. Republicans do not know how to govern. They only know how to create chaos.

Donald Trump and his lapdog Republicans just shut down the federal government after refusing to protect Americans from an imminent spike in health insurance costs.

This is what the GOP stands for.

If you live in these states, your ACA premiums are about to jump:

SD - Up 235%
LA - Up 150%
WV - Up 387%
WY - Up 382%
TN - Up 320%
MS - Up 314%
AK - Up 346%

Republicans are fighting to make sure this happens to their own constituents.

Appears we have a “middle aged, retired military, white male with a gun” problem in this country.

So wait. 300 FBI agents responded to the insurrection to defend the Capitol. MAGA is somehow pretending this proves Trump is innocent.

So let’s say the FBI agents were in the crowd to stir this up… which they weren’t. Wouldn’t that mean Trump used the FBI to help his coup?

Nobody can turn a memorial service into a political fundraising rally quite like white nationalist evangelical Christians.

Let’s just give him the noble peace price if he immediately submits his resignation.

James Comey handed the 2016 election to Donald Trump by announcing a sham investigation against his opponent, causing people to forget the "Access Hollywood" tape & doubt Clinton's honesty.

Today, Trump thanked Comey by corruptly indicting him. To Donald, loyalty & gratitude are one-way streets.

Walz on Trump saying he's not familiar with Melissa Hortman's assassination: "Nothing surprises me. There's no compassion, there's no empathy in this man, and there's no sense of governing for the whole country ... he's doing nothing to improve people's lives."

When a white boy raised on guns goes rogue and assassinates the explanation is that he has been radicalized by leftists. When a black kid kills someone - for whatever reason - he’s a thug that was born a criminal. This, my friends, is the epitome of systemic racism and everything wrong with America.

Watching MAGA rebrand “cancel culture” as “accountability culture” now that their the ones calling the shots is so 2025

I have written and deleted a lot of posts but I keep thinking about how the brutal assassination of Minnesota State senator Melissa Hortman, her husband Mark, and their beloved dog Gilbert in June did not prompt this same level of calls for empathy, sympathy, and flags at half-mast.

Imagine being a far right wing Christian nationalist extremist and being killed because you just aren’t far right Christian nationalist extremist enough. Wow!

For those of you not from Utah, Washington City is one of THE most conservative places in the State. Initial reports suggest an upbringing in a very conservative, gun loving, republican household. We don’t yet know the shooter’s individual beliefs. But hardly a bastion of left wing extremism.

Kirk shooter was a 22 year old white male from Utah from a Republican gun owning household. Not motive so far but already flying in the face of the MAGA narrative that Kirk was killed by some radical leftist. And the reporting that the shooter was trans has been proven a lie.

So here’s the deal. Until we come to terms with the fact that we have a mass school shooting epidemic in this country and take decisive action to fix it I’m not going to spend one second worrying about the safety and security of loud mouth social media pundits. Period.

Last post tonight. We aren't supposed to speculate out loud but you asked. I can't tell you who the Charlie Kirk shooter might be, but I have a guess who it isn't, a lefty. I don't think anyone on the left cared enough about Kirk to do this. He just wasn't that important. Goodnight.
