1. Starting in 2016, Bernie corrupted the political discourse. He made it fashionable to interpret every difference of opinion from the maximalist liberal position as proof of corrupting corporate influence.

Which killed every Dem who ran on achievable and workable policy goals.

Kerby Joseph just gave up trying to cover anyone. Playing hurt but that’s just not good enough.

And I guarantee you these folks are forever online complaining about Dem messaging after sabotaging Dems in public spaces ensuring all the coverage is about their tantrums and not the Dem message.

RIFs can’t be done without agency leadership so this is RFK Jr extending his purge of CDC scientists to help Vought’s shutdown agenda. Genuine public health risks created by aggrieved men.

BREAKING: Friday night massacre underway at CDC. Doznes of "disease detectives," high-level scientists, entire Washington staff and editors of the MMWR (Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report) have all been RIFed and received the following notice:

The one thing this post season has proved beyond any doubt to me is that the Tigers didn’t do near enough to address its issues at the trade deadline.

There is nothing about Finnegan’s pitching the past month that would make any reasonable person think he was the right guy after Skubal.

The widespread media decision to frame international affairs as "will Donnie get the prize he wants?" is pathetic.

He's not the protagonist of human events. And to the extent he's a significant character in world affairs, whether or not he gets a prize is one of the least important things about it.

If you want a taste of actual Dem messaging, rather than relying on rage farming accounts who do nothing but drown out that messaging, follow this channel.

I saw an update that said HHS and Treasury employees were targeted.

Someone was doing this at the VA while waiting for the lab to call their number. I responded by playing the baby shark song on my phone until they put their head phones on.

So Trump is allowing the primary sponsor of Hamas to have its own air base in the United States?

Am I getting that right?

Trump’s government shutdown has hit the double digits.

10 days in, and Republicans still refuse to come to the table to negotiate about Americans’ health care.
