We have met the enemy, and he is us.
Dozenss of wealthy industrialized nations have government-operated, single-payer medical insurance that may not be perfect, but covers all residents at lower cost than our private medical insurance in the US does. And supplemental private insurance.

Are Canada, UK & Germany just better than the US?

True only if you exclude POTUS and political appointees.

But if they had the same standards as career civil servants in the Executive branch, then yeah.

Me, looking at this photo: "Wait, what is for the...oh."

I know this is just one inanity among scores of them, but what would be the point of having a cognitive exam so hard that most people do poorly on it?

Honestly, if you wrote that into a short story, people would complain that it was too heavy-handed and obvious.

It's almost as if he isn't serious about governing....

I mean, I've been to the grocery store. I've looked at the price of cars and housing. Things are expensive.

"Affordability" may actually be a hoax--just not in the way donald means it. The hoax is donald's lie that prices are coming down.

We all know, if there's ONE thing that affects violent crime in Camden, it's who the US Attorney for NJ is. 🙄

Centered? Really?

I guess I should just be pleased it isn't right-justified....

Under his "l'état, chest moi" theory of government, trump thinks he IS defending the nation...by looking out for Number 1.

Huh. I did not know that #Speaker #MikeJohnson and his wife are...neuroscientists, apparently.

Kash Patel both looks and sounds as if NOBODY is more surprised he's in charge of the FBI than he is.
December 5, 2025 at 9:38 PM
He certainly seems to be stopping jobs and health insurance.

Clearly, #trump cannot remember the name of the Canadian PM or the President of Mexico.

Maybe you can whip up a sentence about donald looking like he's in the very pink of...well, I guess, orange of health.
December 5, 2025 at 6:03 PM
Well, donald's certainly looking vigorous, isn't he?
