I am a 60-something mother of three college-educated, Sunday School-raised children. On Monday I will start a new “cubicle job” **just to have health insurance.**

I lost my affordable insurance entirely because of JD Vance’s political party.

The Vice President can fuck alllll the way off.
JD Vance: "To our fellow Americans we say, you're never gonna find great meaning in a cubicle or in front of a computer screen. But you will find great meaning if you dedicate yourself to the creation and sustenance of human life."

The Democratic leaders in Congress have repeatedly shown that they have no interest in leading an effective opposition.

They have no appetite for the legislative trench warfare this moment requires. They don't even have the will to speak about it clearly. They just want to be left alone.
We have to get rid of Jeffries and Schumer. We have to. It’s unendurable that these men are the most prominent Democrats of the moment. They are two of the most broadly undistinguished men I could imagine in politics, zero fire, zero fight, zero zeal, machine politicians with sinecures.

Everything Trump is doing now (from from Portland to Minneapolis to Chicago) is a preamble for his regime's real goal: to invoke the Insurrection Act.

I don’t want to unduly alarm you, but I've been warning for months of this imminent danger. Let me explain what’s going on.

A woman recording an ICE agent tells him "Shame on you."

The agent responds, "Have you all not learned from the past couple of days?"

"Learned what?" she asks

Then he knocks her phone out of her hand

In case you’re wondering whether the pro-ICE reactions to Renee Nicole Good’s murder are natural, here’s a comment that was just left on my video. My video about anti-transgender bias at the BBC. I haven’t made a video about Good yet.

Four generations of my family have served our country. Service is in my blood. The President wouldn’t know anything about that.

Trump has one playbook:
When truth threatens him, he calls it a “hoax.”
He did it with Russia, Ukraine, COVID, the 2020 election, E. Jean Carroll, and now 20,000+ emails, “The Jeffrey Epstein Hoax”
If it’s all a hoax, why did real people suffer?

TurboTax makers Intuit have lobbied the government for years to block free public tax-filing.

Now Trump has terminated the free IRS Direct File program, nearly a year after Intuit gave his inauguration $1M.

Money in politics is the root of our dysfunction.

It bears repeating that he literally only calls people of color "low IQ" it's just straight up gutter racism
Trump: "They have Jasmine Crockett -- a low IQ person. AOC is low IQ. Have her pass the exams I decided to take when I was at Walter Reed. They're cognitive tests. Let AOC go against Trump. Let Jasmine go against Trump. The first couple questions are easy -- a tiger, an elephant, a giraffe ... "

Millions of Americans are already learning that their health insurance costs for 2026 are going way up.

I want to hear from you so we can make this impossible for the GOP to ignore the consequences of their policies.

If your premiums are going up, reply below and please share your story.

Not being even vaguely sarcastic:

At some point, a journalist needs to ask Johnson “you regularly claim you have no idea what your own government is doing. If we take you at your word, how are you so poorly informed, and do you this level of ignorance should disqualify you as speaker?”
Q: What's your message to the 170 US citizens who have been detained by ICE? About 20 of them are children

MIKE JOHNSON: I don't know what you're talking about with the children. I haven't seen that so I'm not going to comment on it.

In their latest budget move, the White House wants to:

-cut support for preschools and homeless kids
-end programs that keep pesticides and toxic chemicals away from our families.
-take money away from farmers.

All so mega-rich Republicans can upgrade their yachts with tax handouts.
