What the Hateful 8 who caved don’t realize is the tax credit for healthcare only addresses the monthly premium. It does nothing to touch ACA’s high deductibles and out-of-pocket costs. By giving in, it makes things exponentially worse for people on an already limited income.

PROUD A ‘YA!

My husband planned to retire in December. I'm not eligible for Medicare until Aug so I planned to get an Obamacare policy. I found one in Oct that was $800/month. Now it's $2000/month.

So now my husband isn't going to retire. I hate Trump & GOP so much.

Maybe we got it all wrong. Chuck gave in so the GOP would release the Epstein files. Right?

This is really good to see: Miki Sherrill just put out a statement sharply criticizing the Senate Dems' pending cave in the government shutdown, ripping it as "malpractice" and a betrayal of the people who are "counting on us to fight for them." Sherrill knows what drove her victory. Wake up, Dems.

And now, if you read the devastating piece about what Venezuelan deportees endured at the El Salvador torture prison, read what incarcerated U.S. citizens endure in Alabama prisons.

State prisons in the U.S. that are massive systems of human rights violations.

Heritage is like the Terminator. It won’t ever stop.
The is the sort of symbolic erasure one might expect of an insanely hateful regime intent on genocide.
1/ The US Government has quietly removed a memorial to Black soldiers who died in World War II from the Netherlands American Cemetery in Margraten, South Limburg. The move follows a complaint from the right-wing Heritage Foundation to the American Battle Monuments Commission. ⬇️

Literally every move the administration has made is what you would do to destroy or dismantle a country – while at the same time screaming about Antifa wanting to burn it all down.
WASHINGTON (AP) — IRS Direct File, the electronic system for filing tax returns for free, will not be offered next year, the Trump administration has confirmed.

SNAP benefits are under attack during this government shutdown and food banks are picking up the slack.

But they need your help. Here are the best ways to do that:

Eventually gun manufacturers got sued by individuals. Big Tobacco got sued by people with cancer. Here’s hoping that when someone’s life is ruined by a deep fake image…

Well, you get the picture.

No it’s important to listen to this. Because then you understand that many of them will do ANYTHING to keep power. Remember Musk got involved in the 2024 election after saying to Tucker “if she wins” I am definitely going to prison.

So we need to move knowing that nothing is off the table for them.

Democrats, don’t let the word “socialist” spook you. I’m not Democratic socialist, but I’m damn proud to be part of a party big enough to hold all of us.

FACT: Republicans call every Democrat a socialist, It’s all they’ve got.

And, who doesn’t love that Republicans are having melt down over it.

Democratic leaders should not rely on litigating their way out of this. Take action now. Arrest these guys. Throw them in jail.

Make *Republicans* file the lawsuits. Make *THEM* argue before a judge or jury why they were justified in kidnapping a preschool teacher in front of her children.

Today, Mike Johnson will keep the House adjourned for the 91st day out of the last 103.

12 days of work in 103 days.

With full pay and benefits.

The senate has been working, so this is not about the shutdown.

It is about avoiding a vote to release the Epstein files.

Mind-blowing stuff from Robby Soave.

"Podcasters should not avoid Fuentes." Of course they should. Deplatforming Nazis is good. Not amplifying them is not censorship.

Also laughable to claim Fuentes has been deplatformed. His growing reach is directly tied to MAGA destigmatizing naked racism.

Tucker Carlson's interview of the right-wing podcaster has begun a debate on how best to combat antisemitic, racist, and white nationalist views.

Most likely don’t have this on the Election Day radar, but felony disenfranchisement is on the ballot next week in Virginia, an unusually harsh state for denying voting rights to people with criminal records. Major reform may be coming there, and Tuesday is pivotal.
