Bank tellers and clerks are fatalistic, but I’m a farmer. Who ever heard of a fatalistic farmer?

Senator Murphy lays out exactly what is on the line.

"  There was a promise made to finance this tax cut with two trillion dollars of cuts to Medicaid and Medicare. Medicaid, poor kids, poor families, Medicare, seniors in this country."

Hands Off Our Medicaid!

"Fascist and authoritarian governments are always more fragile than they let on," says @amandamarcotte.bsky.social. Trump is "using shock and awe" because rushing through as much as possible is "their only hope."

On the pod, Amanda is so good on Karoline Leavitt:

Trump Aide Karoline Leavitt’s Sleazy New Attack on Biden Is a Bad Omen
As Trump’s press secretary holds her first media briefing and viciously attacks Biden’s age, a shrewd observer of MAGA deconstructs the psychology behind her performance—and what it portends.

This is the same deal they had back in MAY. Netanyahu and Hamas left those hostages to be tortured, raped and die over 8 more months.......for TRUMP! Trump is the reason for this delay. To push it passed January 20th.

Who cares if it doesn’t change the GOP’s mind about him, Mark’s suggestion makes the Dems look more efficient, and they need some good publicity right now…
I'm sorry but the Dems are ridiculously bad at their Hegspeth questions. IMO, if you want to prove someone is incompetent, you ask them the hardest strategic questions they will have to know to succeed at the job

I’m damn grateful to the Mexicans and Canadians who have helped LA while Trump and Elon just tweeted and sucked.

Jefferson never would’ve given a national prayer as a deist president who believed in separation of church and state; unless you’re a Roaring 20s revisionist “historian”
The new Republican House began with an obvious lie advanced in the service of Christian nationalism, so we’re off to a great start
In his opening speech, Speaker Mike Johnson just recited a long prayer attributed to Thomas Jefferson.

As @jackjenkins.me and others have pointed out, Jefferson never said any of this: www.monticello.org/research-edu...

The insurance imagines a number and the hospital imagines a number. Both are forced on the patient.
