This new Politico poll should stop us all in our tracks!
50% of Americans are struggling to afford groceries, let’s start there. Then add the fact that we have a president who thinks we’re lying about it.
I’m just waiting for the next poll that asks, “Does the president care about people like me?”

Oligarchy (noun):
A government of and by a few at the top, who exercise power for their own benefit. Their power and wealth increase as they make laws that favor themselves, manipulate financial markets, and create monopolies that put more wealth into their pockets.

This. The fucking games!
JUST IN: Mike Johnson plans to swear in Rep.-elect Matt Van Epps on Thursday — less than two days after he won the TN-07 special election.
As a reminder, it took Johnson 50 days to swear in Democratic Rep. Adelita Grijalva.

President Obama and President Biden knew every single minute detail and personally followed their missions until they were complete and our soldiers were out of harms way.
Trump claims to not know even the basics of missions he’s “ordering”.

I looked Trump's Education Secretary Linda McMahon dead in the eye and asked, “Do you think you can shut down the Department of Education?”
She said, “No, I don’t have the legal authority to do that.”
Yet here we are.
Linda McMahon should resign.

These Karoline Leavitt "press conferences" are completely worthless propaganda full of shameless lies. They should be ignored by the media and all of us.
Q: You said that second strike was in accordance with the law of armed conflict, but the Navy's own manual says that firing on survivors from a wrecked vessel is an example of a war crime
LEAVITT: I would reiterate that the strike was conducted in accordance with the law of armed conflict

As someone who hand wrote hundreds of postcards (using my own money for the cards and postage) for Aftyn Behn this really, really pisses me off!
There are flyers circulating and even mailers showing up in people’s mailboxes in Tennessee’s 7th Congressional District that list the wrong date for the upcoming special election. Voters are being told to vote on the incorrect day.

This is my kind of good trouble.
In Monrovia, California, protesters are purchasing 17¢ ICE scrapers from Home Depot and immediately returning them to create long lines and slow down the entire store. Their aim is to disrupt sales and convey a message opposing ICE raids occurring in their neighborhood.

If Schumer can't whip enough votes to prevent a deal that will price millions of Americans out of healthcare, he needs to resign.
Schumer is voting No.
He can’t stop Fetterman from voting Yes.

Two days of moderate air travel inconveniences were enough for the donors to end it.
Not SNAP, not the ACA. Just…crowded airports on the news.

It will be my total focus to support anyone who primaries these Senators that voted for this capitulation. I've got nothing but time and energy.
Breaking News: The Senate has enough votes to reach a minibus deal. A CR through January 30th.
FORTY days for absolutely nothing, but capitulation from Democrats, as usual.
Your services are no longer needed, Chuck Schumer.
Please close the door on your way out.

Calling what’s coming out of the Senate a ‘deal’ is an insult. It’s caving on millions of people’s healthcare, putting a bow on it, and calling it compromise.

Senators: your votes, donations, and endorsements are conditional on your actions in office. Your (D) does not make you safe.
Caving to Trump with only "concepts of a plan" to vote on the ACA is UNACCEPTABLE.
Traitors deserve competitive primaries.

We need new leadership. New blood, young, scrappy, and hungry (in my Hamilton voice). The establishment has, and continues to, fuck the progression of the party at every turn. If the Dems cave, it is the nail in the coffin of any chance to rallying those already sunken, to believe again…GTFOH

Ok, here is why this Alt is pissed off.
They got a promise, pinky swear, from the GOP (known liars) on a vote 40 days from now on the subsidies. After the subsidies have expired, after the rates are locked.
40 day from now, meaning there isn't going to be any ACA help for 2026.
