Sometimes I bump into things, or fall off of them, or trip over them. I have a very expensive titanium hip to prove it. And I’m a millennial. UPDATE: I broke my pinkie toe. Told y’all. Stationary objects jump out. 🐶 🐱❤️✌️🌊 🇺🇦

You’re suggesting they subject their bodies to the force the thugs have been using on the streets against nonviolent protestors? They’d be zip tied and arrested for obstruction. Nah man.

Hey @gtconway.bsky.social or @ofthebraveusa.bsky.social - where can we find a complete list of the papers? I’d love to see it landed in some papers in my home state of Iowa - the pissed off farmers need to know!

They didn’t need to be physically removed with force. They all walked out together at the 4pm deadline after they cleared out their offices and handed in badges, refusing to sign. One was quoted saying they’ll keep doing their job no matter where their desk is.

Read the article before posting.

Was he in the POLITICO text chain or did we just find yet another Nazi “Young Republican”

Santiago Mayer @santiagomayer.com · 1d

Holy shit. This is Angelo Elia, a legislative correspondent for Congressman Dave Taylor.

According to @rooster.info, during a Zoom meeting today, he had an American nazi flag displayed in the background.

If appealed to SCOTUS: I think SCOTUS would have to agree with the lower court bc what would stop future administrations/congresses from purposely shutting down the government to mass layoff federal workers from the opposing party, as Trump is said to be doing (via voter registration records)

What’s the paper bag test? I’m assuming it’s along these lines?

If you can’t sell your soybeans because of Trump’s tariffs after Argentina stepped in and took your customers, you can take solace that the guy you voted for also just gave $20 billion of your tax dollars to the country that is bankrupting you.

As the Trump shutdown drags into its third week, it's clear Republicans are so committed to raising people's health care costs that they're willing to hold the country hostage to do it.

In Bemidji and across the country, Americans will see their premiums double or even triple if Congressional Republicans refuse to work with us to extend the health care tax credits.

Hardworking families don’t have an extra $14,400 lying around. We need to stop this health care crisis.

If you need a pick-me-up, may I suggest going to JCPenny and buying a shitty pair of jeans in the next size up. You’ll be walking around feeling so skinny

I MISS MY 2002 MATRIX SO SO SO MUCH! It was a beast. Inherited it from my grandmother (dementia) in 2010 and drove it for a solid 10 years until my mother insisted I get rid of it and “gave” me her 2016 CRV when she upgraded to a newer model. I’m still bitter about it. 😠
