How much healthcare does $2,000 get you when there is nobody regulating the industry and individuals have no leverage?

Despots weaponize their opponents' compassion against them. Trump wants to use people's pain as extortion to get Democrats to fund his corruption. I didn't want the shutdown, but Democrats would be suckers to knowingly vote for a budget that destroys our democracy.

I'm often surprised at the number of people who think elected office/serving the people is a competitive sport.
There should never be winners AND losers.
Only winners.
If you pass good policy, we all win.
If I do, we all win.
This is literally the largest group project ever.

Republicans are so happy with their “brilliant” healthcare plan that they are floating the idea of giving everyone $2,000, and then Americans can choose how to get their roads built. Individuals will be responsible for deciding which traffic laws apply. It’ll be great! 👍🏼

This is so so disturbing. Trump is now pardoning January 6th rioters for unrelated crimes, just to reward them for their violence to keep him in power.
The Republican Party is in the full time business of endorsing and incentivizing political violence. So scary.

See that Rolex clock and gold bar?
It looks like those Swiss gifts paid off.
Trump cut tariffs on Swiss goods — like luxury watches — from 39% to 15%.
While Trump’s tariffs increase prices for Americans, billionaire CEOs and foreign companies sucking up to Trump get relief.

The Trump family is chasing another real estate deal in Saudi Arabia.
And the Saudis want a mutual defense agreement and access to U.S. nuclear technology.
Looks like Trump and the royal family will both win, with our national security for sale. The only losers? The American people.

I'm seeing people wonder why ICE is going after Charlotte.
ICE has been at war with Charlotte's sheriff ever since he won in 2018.
We'd covered this at Bolts back in the day; this quote is from that sheriff:

“When the 8 African American sheriffs took over the largest counties in North Carolina, it became a threat to the good ol’ boy system,” says the sheriff of Charlotte. These new sheriffs broke ties with ICE.
But GOP lawmakers cracked down this week, overbidding the governor’s veto to adopt this law:

On Oct. 8, 2025, the AK National Guard got a memo from Major General Ronald Burkett, Director of NG Operations. It requires AK to prepare a Quick Reaction Force of 350 trained in batons, Tasers, & pepper spray to deploy for riot control. As Chair of AK’s Joint Armed Services Comm., I’m concerned.
