Trump isn’t actually, legally allowed to change the name of the Kennedy Center for Performing Arts because its naming was Constitutionally codified by LBJ in 1964.
THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER. 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

The Kennedy Center was established and named by an act of Congress. No media outlet should call it anything different until Congress amends or repeals that Act. Trump is not a king.

Another favorite thing of mine is the sport of rugby. I've been a player, a referee, a league admin and a coach. Now I'm just a photographer.

Nope. Because this is all about the short and long term. We have to cull these people now or put the pressure on them and see if they'll change or else we all screwed.
You're not wrong, but can we please wait until after the midterms before we start the internal war? We always shoot ourselves in the foot and snatch defeat from the jaws of victory with the in-fighting. Why don't we put 100% of the attention on them and their failures and win first then cull?

Guaranteed the best thing you will see on the interwebs today. Even better than cats destroying Christmas tree videos.

I did not have "leaving the phrase 'I didnt have that on my bingo card!' and all variants in 2025" on my bingo card!
🚨PSA🚨
We are leaving the phrase "I didnt have that on my bingo card!" and all variants in 2025. You have half of a month to still use it, but we are not using it anymore starting next year.
Thank you for your cooperation.

Republicans who want payments made to HSAs, you need to provide data on the actuarial value of this approach.
High Deductible plans, with HSA deposits, are useless if the patient can't afford their deductible.
Which is the ultimate problem with no CSR, ACA plans.

The United States of America; the so-called "land of the free" where their "amazing and the bestest freedom and democracy" can't even give working class people free healthcare, free education, free housing, free clean drinking water, free transportation, or even free care for the elderly.

Imagine you had millions of people in your life who ignored everything you ever said but would show up once a year and make a huge deal about your birthday, claiming they were your biggest fans.
Crazy, right?
Anyway…Merry Christmas.

I don't for a minute support bullies or bullying, but it is becoming more apparent each and every day that the people running this government were not punched square in the face often or hard enough while in junior high.
Sabrina Carpenter ratioed the White House after it used her song in an ICE video.
The WH deleted the post…but now it’s back with a new ICE video, this time using an altered clip from Carpenter’s SNL monologue.

Mamdani: Oftentimes when we win elections, we tell people to go home and just trust us. But the message really has to be that we want you to come along with us… That’s something we’ve been looking to share with New Yorkers: We want to not only win with New Yorkers, but also govern with New Yorkers.
