Our health care system is badly broken, but Republicans’ “concepts of a plan” to crush the Affordable Care Act for the umpteenth time just is not going to work.

„Quiet, Piggy!“ Just think about that for a minute, and what it means to live in a time when a President can assault a woman in public like that without any consequences.
It‘s quite a testimony to the age of regression we live in.

Unable to mass fire Feds, Vought’s tactic is to starve agencies and programs of funds, in a variety of (likely) illegal ways. You’ll see more of this as the fiscal year progresses. This administration must be removed and prosecuted for all illegal activity.

1) Start the worst European war since 1945 and commit every imaginable war crime
2) Decide how you want to be rewarded for your aggression
3) Leak the list of your desiderata to the US press
4) Wait for the US president to enforce your wish list on your victim.

“They're suggesting the president has given illegal orders, which he has not. Every single order given is lawful.”

All the many courts that have ruled that Trump has ordered something unlawful:

“Bitch, please.”

Holy shit. So Elon decides it would be nice to know what region of the world people are posting from. So they add that little feature.
2 hours later they figure out that many Trump supporters with millions of followers are posting from other countries. Surprise!
That "feature" is now gone.

When I was 4, Mum's best friend lived next door. I played with her kids. She died in an iron lung at 26. My aunt was in a leg brace from age 3. My best friend wore a back brace for years. My guy's aunt died at 28. She had 3 kids.
All from polio.
It's horrific.

What Rand Paul is doing is what Jim Jordan did to Stanford Internet Observatory. Under the pretext of “oversight“ he can make sweeping requests —w/the intent to harass & chill.

The universities can fight. But most are afraid of broader attacks so they quickly comply.
