sure we are all well. Even I roll thru despondency every few days, but like a wave, I hold my breath, swim through it and rise to the surface when it passes.

Lofgren: Now, instead of the president weighing in, we’ve got him doing weird little dances as he lands in Asia, and he’s missing in action. The Senate is refusing to negotiate across party lines, and the House of Representatives isn’t even meeting. I mean, I’ve never seen anything like this.

A president that concocted a private sector scheme to avoid paying his own employees overtime compensation.

The racist clown is running the US like a business even though he's an awful businessman.

Is it surprising that he's stopping people from being paid?

The rich get rich by screwing the poor.
Lemme add to your salutation to our pedo-in chief:

I hope you’re cooked this year, Turkey.
Happy Thanksgiving Mr. President.

If someone asks Mike Johnson why Trump can't end the shutdown with an Executive Order what's he gonna say? That Congress has the power of the purse? Well saying that opens up a can of worms for him, doesn't it?

If any of you have received your new health care insurance premiums, please go over to Substacks and share them with Pete Buttigieg. He is collecting them so that he can share our outrage.

.. this implies that they choose not to feed the American people and blame instead of doing what is necessary for our society. Our democracy is broken.

Dear Democratic Members of Congress:

I am urging each of you to adopt a food pantry this week. Make it clear that Trump and the GOP are withholding $5 billion in a contingency fund that could fund SNAP benefits and feed Americans, so you're adopting a food pantry in your district.

The only thing this administration and its co-conspirators care about is completing their inside-out coup!

I am actually stunned … to think a furthered shutdown and letting SNAP funding lapse is all a twisted gambit to further “blame the Dems” for this shutdown … ESPECIALLY when their own contingencies exist (and let’s not even remind them who’s in control of the executive, house, senate, SCOTUS……)

I am typically tough on Klobuchar but this is well done.

Call the Republicans out by name. Let her constituents and the rest of red America know who's screwing them.

Keep it up.

Johnson backs Trump’s plans not to tap contingency dollars for food aid ahead of funding cliff

So who is running things? It's the REPUBLICANS & this is another example of their LACK of compassion & their willingness to hurt others. This is what disregard for humanity looks like!

JD Vance is the least-liked, most despised vice president in U.S. history.

Vance’s favorability is worse than any new vice president in the history of polling.

"Democrats will get a bad ruling from the parliamentarian and they'll say, 'welp, what could we possibly do?' Whereas the Republicans are like, 'the parliamentarian says we can't do that so let's just get a new fucking parliamentarian.' And that's a microcosm for the broader fight."

Jayapal: From the trading you mentioned to the outright use of the office of the presidency to make money…

At the end of the day, this whole concept that he was going to “drain the swamp”—he is the swamp. And he’s doing everything he can to enrich himself.
