With just 17 days until Obamacare tax credits expire, it’s now clear: Congress—and the country—are headed over the Obamacare cliff. Even if the House acts, the Senate won’t move in time.
It’s outrageous that all members of Congress have great, taxpayer-funded healthcare! Screw regular Americans!!

You know which law enforcement agency isn't considered a threat to terrorists? Yeah, ICE. They would run FROM a shooter instead of running towards the danger. Because ICE is an agency made of cowards and bullies.

My prayers are with the Jewish community worldwide as we mourn the victims of the antisemitic terror attack in Australia. As families mark the start of Hanukkah, no one should have to fear violence for their faith. We must call out antisemitism & stop hate.
