All things equal it is pretty funny that he campaigned on the one thing that could bring him down because he thought he could bully his party and his base into dropping it at the snap of a finger. Like this wasn’t foisted upon him, he CAMPAIGNED on it.

Maybe someone should tell Megyn R. Kelly 15 is not “barely legal”, it’s actually quite illegal?

not enough chatter about how frequently members fly and how attacking airport capacity directly affects them in a way that cutting SNAP does not

It really does seem like there's a decent chance that these senators screwed us because they don't want their personal Thanksgiving plans to be disrupted.
Anyway a great way to radicalize people is for them to realize that you just abandoned their chance at being able to access and afford health care because you didn’t like waiting in line at the airport.

This and the airline industry lobbyists are what did it. Not Americans starving and paying twice as much for healthcare.

More than 10,000 flights delayed in worst day of disruptions since shutdown
More than 2,800 flights were canceled Sunday, while Transportation Secretary Sean P. Duffy said the shutdown’s impact on airports is “only going to get worse.”

American politics makes a lot more sense when you realize that the GOP is afraid of pissing off the GOP base, and the Dems are afraid of pissing off the GOP base, but neither party is afraid of pissing off the Dem base.

To be fair, according to actuarial tables, these senators don’t have a lot of holiday seasons left and they REALLY don’t want to give one up for something silly like making life better for millions of people.

Apparently, it is negotiable!
Health care isn’t negotiable.

We need to both reopen the government and work together to protect access to affordable health care by extending the ACA enhanced premium tax credits.

A reminder - last March, republicans promised to restore $1.1B in funding to DC in exchange for funding the government, and Mike Johnson never took it up in the House.

Question for everyone getting excited about a “$2,000 tariff dividend check”: what did you spend that $5,000 stimulus check you were promised from DOGE on?

the key trump gives to his guests looks like one you’d get at cheap roadside motel.
I think this bag is fake.

Hermes's flagship products are handsewn using a saddle stitch. A worker marks the leather using an awl and then threads two needles through from both sides.

This results in a tight stitch with no holes between the stitches. The holes here suggest the bag was machine sewn.
