All while glossing over the FACT that Biden got out 200 hostages and got nothing but grief from the Right the entire time for it.

Prescient.

"In 1935, Sinclair Lewis warned in his novel, It Can’t Happen Here, that when fascism comes to the US it won’t look like the European brand. Instead, it would be wrapped in a flag and carrying a cross. In 2025, we also know that it wears a Maga hat and an Ice vest."

A big show for 20. Biden got out 200 and got nothing but grief. The deal isn't done. Hamas is still in control. Call me skeptical, but I can't count the times ceasefire deals have fallen apart in the Middle East, and specifically Israel, since I was in my 20s.

I see that this small-minded puritanical pixie is laser-focused on getting the government reopened and the troops paid.

Yep. I've been thinking that for a while now.

I'm sorry that it's going to hurt a lot of folks who didn't vote for this but the red states need to feel a good deal of pain for a few years so they learn which side of the aisle they should vote for.

Remember when Trump said to not count COVID deaths because it would look better? He's very careful in his wording. He's not watching news so he can say "I haven't seen it". But he sure knows about it, I'd bet on that. Two sides of the same coin.

And US Senator Alex Padilla, D CA, was actually pushed out of a news conference w/Kristi Noem and eventually pushed down to the floor in the hall.

IIRC before it got passed they tinkered with it some 40 times, weakening the bill every time.

“Do you support repealing Obamacare and what's your health care plan?

@SpeakerJohnson: *attacks the ACA and says Republicans are the party of wanting to fix health care🤔 even though they have no plan, sabotaged the ACA, just cut $1 trillion from health care*

Salvation Army seen feeding ICE today. For anyone who doesn't already know about their bigotry, here is more, No need to give them your money this Christmas, or ever.

It’s dinner time for the police. Appears to be pizza from a Salvation Army van.

Broadview’s “free speech” curfew starts soon, at 6pm.

Yeah. Years ago a dentist looked in my mouth and said "You didn't grow up around here." I asked how she knew and she told me I didn't have enough cavities. I grew up in a community that put fluoride in the water.

Using Salesforce? Or Slack? Guess what!? Their leader, Marc Benoiff is a Trumper with platforms & AI. You should be as alarmed & nervous as you should be with Musk having similar power.

In that case they're free?
Or, are you paying me to buy them?

The rest of that word salad is not mathematically possible.

I doubt it's laundering. It's more like a mob boss getting his payoff.
