Donald Trump and his lapdog Republicans just shut down the federal government after refusing to protect Americans from an imminent spike in health insurance costs.

This is what the GOP stands for.

Because the current administration is lying once again and hurting women and children, do this as much as possible (I'm getting my sticky notes ready):

Gupta: It is safe. That’s what the best-quality research shows. And how irresponsible, using the podium of the WH to put this out there when you’re not even offering an alternative. That is dangerous. An untreated fever is dangerous. Untreated pain in pregnancy is dangerous.

(2/3) each tale will have readers on the edge of their seats!

I had the chance to read one of Kristin’s short stories in A Return to Survival Horror, and oh my, has that story stuck with me. When Kristin reached out to tell me she had a short story collection out, I was SO excited!

There is no world in which it is normal for the president to publicly call upon his attorney general to hurry up and prosecute his political foes. It’s like the Watergate tapes but posted on social media. Let’s get a grip on what’s happening here.

"During the transition, law enforcement officials notified the incoming administration about the case as Mr. Trump’s team considered whom to appoint to to government positions..."

And they still gave him the job!

Did he keep the $50k?

And what was his Cava order?

Not the first to observe it but it bears repeating: If artists didn’t matter so much, they wouldn’t come after us first. Stay safe as best you can. Keep working.

“Forget the myths that the media has created about the White House. The truth is, these are not very bright guys…”

-All the President’s Men (1976)
A scene from the movie, ALL THE PRESIDENT’S MEN. An older white man stands in a darkened parking garage. He stands beside a concrete column. Only the silhouette of his head and shoulders is visible. A ray of light hits his eyes so we can see them.

Weird that the FCC Chair had no issue with Kilmeade wanting to euthanize homeless people.

WGA Statement on ABC’s Decision to Pull Jimmy Kimmel Live!
The right to speak our minds and to disagree with each other - to disturb, even - is at the very heart of what it means to be a free people. It is not to be denied. Not by violence, not by the abuse of governmental power, nor by acts of corporate cowardice. As a Guild, we stand united in opposition to anyone who uses their power and influence to silence the voices of writers, or anyone who speaks in dissent. If free speech applied only to ideas we like, we needn't have bothered to write it into the Constitution. What we have signed on to - painful as it may be at times - is the freeing agreement to disagree. Shame on those in government who forget this founding truth. As for our employers, our words have made you rich. Silencing us impoverishes the whole world. The WA stands with Jimmy Kimmel and his writers.
