Enough. We HAVE TO HAVE UNIVERSAL HEALTH CARE. This is madness.

Retired couple (teacher & union carpenter) on ACA premiums skyrocketing — from $443/month to $2,224/month: “It's like buying another house and trying to pay for two houses at the same time… without the subsidy we honestly don’t know what we’re gonna do.” #TrumpShutdown

Let's hope he takes a shower and puts on a new, scented diaper, and keeps it clean--the Japanese re very odor-conscious. Let's wait and see a video of the dinner to see if those next to him are holding their nose.

Don't just sit there. Switch parties and get 5 of your pals todo the same. Then we'll see some action (even from Hammock Hakeem.)

How much longer will the billionaire media ignore his dementia, narcissism, and Hitler love? When will the sanewashing end? Every day this moronic, ignorant blob gets visibly worse, and yet every single GOP Senator, Rep, and Cabinet member refuses to see that the Emperor has no brain.

It's all right there in the Manual of Conventional Wisdom, billionaire media owner's edition.

Let's see this demented moron take the bar exam. Hey, let's see him read the first page of a law textbook!

Don’t forget Truth media stock and various bitcoin grifts.

50 years ago a guy at a Gillette razor kiosk on the top floor of Glendale Galleria told me to rinse my razor in cold water, the opposite of what my father had said. Now so I have to decide this issue every morning.

The second was someone over there is rather racist.

Ben, you didn’t go far enough. Trump, a few Cabinet members, all the billionaires and crypto crooks, hide in the bunker while Putin drops tactical nukes on Dem cities, Canada, etc.

At the same time he’s killing dozens of innocent people on board without checking if they’re criminals, his BP And ICE agents are shooting indigent citizens.

I’d like to see full context.

What’s with the non-negotiable ad for a $95 subscription?

“Golden Age” of violence, cruelty, stupidity and avarice. Fuck ICE.

When Trump hears that it’s his job to “faithfully execute the laws” he thinks it means invoking Jesus to kill them.

A 14-word replacement for most op-eds, substacks, etc about this moment.

The GOP could stop ALL of this, right now—if a handful of Sens or Reps could step outside the cult.

It would take four in the Senate, four (maybe five) in the House, to change history.

Until then, they're all to blame.

Meanwhile…most of the people in the Trump admin are current or former drug addicts.
