The $12 billion isn't coming from tariffs anyway. It's from a crop insurance program at USDA that may need to be bailed out itself in the coming year.

The GOP plan is really really really bad for people who want to actually USE their health insurance.

It’s great for people who are healthy and don’t actually need to use their health insurance, but just absolute dog shit of a plan if you’re sick.

There is currently a push to move to at-will public employment, based on the claim that some states did this, and the results don't seem too bad. I think a) the evidence is just not great, and b) look closely, there are states where changes resulted in discrimination and political retribution.

Because these dipshits think it is all one giant TV show, and that all they need to do is create content. You know, just like they do at Fox.

Do real WORK? That's boring and requires effort! Much better to whine about things that don't matter.

They can say whatever they want. Doesn't mean it has to be followed.

Turning the Fasc-6 into an overpaid advisory council is fine with me.

Well, when you're a tech billionaire that's completely separated from real-life consequences, and the consequences others end up dealing with due to racism and sexism, that mentality does tend to happen.

#TaxTheRich to slap these people back to Planet Earth.

Oh no she won't. She will be living off of the notoriety and Wingnut welfare at age 45.

Well, unless we have done a nationwide purge of the MAGAt lowlifes who allowed this awfulness, and jailed the real criminals. That's the type of purification I could get behind.

Making me have to respond to specific examples of our bad behavior is divisive liberal bias.

That's the response I wanted to hear.

STAHL: "What do you mean by that?"

MTG: (Stammers with pathetic word salad)

STAHL: "No. Now let's go back to your real actions."

2027 would be the the first year Braun would be on the regular ballot, I think. Not that he's getting in that way, but he's in a much different cohort.

It was there. Cousins is just very good at hiding it among a bunch of benign Jesus talk.

Keeping Bonds from the HOF is absurd. That guy was a 1st ballot Hall of Famer if he had retired in 1997 - before he ever did one steroid, from all reporting.

Then, in an era where 1/2 or more of the players are juicing, Bonds is the best of all of them. Yet, he's somehow disqualified? COME ON.

Response should be "What do mean by DemocratIC talking points?"

Make that MAGAt explain that line, and when he wusses out, say "YOU ARE GONE. You will not give baseless criticism of me on my show. Grow the F up."

Access journalism must DIE.
