Yet House Republicans just killed the first comprehensive (and bipartisan!!) housing package of the last few DECADES
More than 75% of homes across the U.S. are unaffordable, study finds

Boy, North Carolina Republicans sure don't want the attached story to circulate. I sure hope that this stupid threat from their spokesperson doesn't boomerang on them and have a lot more people read and share the story, which once again, is conveniently attached below. That would be a shame.

@davidmuir-abc.bsky.social @kristenwelker.bsky.social @morningjoe-msnbc.bsky.social @nytimes.com @kaitlancollins.bsky.social embarrassing to call yourselves journalists - you should be outraged both as an American and a journalist. I won't tag CBS as Weiss has sent them over the cliff.
The president of the United States posted a video of him defecating on the American people. Many in my profession normalized it. This is a big reason why we are where we are.

It’s painfully clear. By refusing to swear in Adelita Grijalva, Speaker Johnson’s covering up Jeffrey Epstein’s global sex-trafficking ring.
Hey GOP: Bring back the House, cancel your health care cuts, reopen the government and release the files.

Trump's nonstop threats to arrest Dems are also about sleepwalking us into forgetting that free societies don't allow for arbitrary arrests of political opponents.
