Confirmed, the "Gaza peace deal" was the same deal offered to Netanyahu and the US repeatdly, but it was turned down by Israel because they wanted to gift Trump (Israeli asset) a perceived victory at the expense of the Israeli hostages and Gaza population.

Jeffries on Fox News Sunday: "My friends on other aisle seem to think believe healthcare is an extraneous issue. We don't believe it's an extraneous issue. It's a central issue...the states most affected are all ones Trump won...so this is not a partisan fight. We're fighting for everyday Americans"

Marjorie Taylor Greene blasts the Trump administration for their failure to deliver on promises made to the MAGA base:

When Obama was president the right wing acted like masked government agents were coming to kidnap them and take all their rights away.

Then Republicans get elected and actually do that shit for real.

Ode to the Portland frog

From the mist of the moss
And the gray Oregon rain,
Their leaps, a green hero to ease all the pain.
My love for this frog is a powerful thing,
For the justice and freedom
his ribbit can bring
