👎 This Slave Ship of the Sky finally departed Burbank after a two hour and eighteen minute delay, which is longer than the projected flight time from Burbank to Pasco.

Republican officials have spent years psy-oping themselves into thinking that there are no sincere, good faith liberals or progressives anywhere in America. So no wonder they're totally unequipped to deal with a large crowd of normal people waving American flags.

Correct. Shaheen is one of my three Senate Dems to watch during this shutdown. She voted for the March CR, is an appropriator (and a moderate who hates shutdowns), authored the ACA funding bill, and she's retiring. If there's a path to reopen, it runs through her. www.nbcnews.com/politics/con...

Supercut of comments from Republicans today alone about the No Kings rallies taking place this weekend. This has to be some of the worst, and most anti-American, coordinated messaging of all time.

Private insurers like UnitedHealth, Humana, and Cigna are using AI to deny medically necessary care to the most vulnerable.

The federal government plans to do the same with Medicare.
