This is Rudy. He carried out the perfect heist by remembering the four S's: sleep, sneak, steal, skedaddle. 14/10 (TT: rudyrudyroo)

At the bill signing, Trump again touted his bullshit about people being "entrepreneurs" and negotiating directly w/ providers themselves. I had my annual checkup recently. Here's my EOB for the labs. Take a look at the cost reduction column and then raise your hand if you want to do that yourself!

I take it Trump got an equity stake in those prepper buckets or something?
Ingraham: Doesn't that show us that we’re too dependent on China?

Trump: We’re not dependent on China, we’re dependent on having a smart president

For as much as the Senate Ds suck shit, and they really fucking suck shit, there are no wins for them as long as Trump is president.

Their goals are harm mitigation and causing political pain to Rs, how and when to lose is going to suck and real people are going to suffer in these fights.

"I’m accepting the GOP following THE LAW as a hard won concession" is such an unserious position & explains so much of how we've gotten to our current predicament. and that applies to our electorate just as much as it does to our institutions & electeds TBC 😣
These are *not* concessions on the part of republicans. If you treat them as such, you’ve incentivized them to weaponize the federal workforce to the maximum degree in every single future fight. I feel like I’m losing my fucking mind.

This is not a deal — it's an empty promise.

Trump and his Republican Congress are making healthcare more expensive for the middle class and ending it for working families.

Time for Democrats to stand tall for affordable healthcare. www.politico.com/news/2025/11...
Senate reaches deal on ending the shutdown
Democrats are coalescing around a bipartisan agreement to fund the government.

if you like politicians standing up to this terrible GOP trifecta then show them by liking & sharing their messaging
Last night, the Trump Administration sent a letter suggesting Wisconsin should return our FoodShare payments.

Someone on here once wrote a poem that went something like

“If your Ryan be Cooper, you’re doing super! If your Ryan be Grim, there are lies therein”

You should probably stop reading Grim’s posts uncritically, man
