Trump said he's "recommending to Senate Republicans" that money going to insurance companies instead be sent to Americans to buy health care (from insurance companies).

Basically, that's what the ACA does, except money is in the form of subsidies. He just wants to send less and rename it Trumpcare

Your reminder that members of Congress (who also have gold-plated health care WE pay for) are eligible for a pension at age 62 if they have completed at least five years of service.

“I want credit for improving the economy by slightly reducing the awful thing that I myself put in place, that everyone but me knew was going to wreck the economy, and is still wrecking the economy just slightly less now” is quite a political gambit
Yeah whoever jacked up tariffs on coffee from Brazil earlier this year must be a real bonehead

No alt text provided so: Photos of Zohran Mamdani and Dr. Oz; text over says "If you care that Mamdani is Muslim, but not that Dr. Oz is, your issue is NOT his religion."

Trump’s counterfeit elector documents are smoking gun proof of of a coordinated insurrection attempt

Trump lost all court cases alleging fraud - ALL
In red blue states and before Trump appointed judges

No legal basis whatsoever for the J6 orchestrated assault on Congress or the fake elector docs

1. Going to the Library in Smyrna or Murfreesboro, TN?

You might be greeted by an EMERGENCY CLOSURE sign.

Apparently they have detected the presence of "transgender books" and are quarantining them as if they were a dangerous plague.

Some Tennessee Libraries Shut Down For “Emergency Closure” Over Transgender Books
It is unclear how many other libraries have or may need to temporarily shut their doors in order to cull their children’s sections for gender-subversive content.

Thank you so much for your service, Veterans, and to those who are serving our country right now!
We have a corrupt Commander in Chief, giving illegal orders to our military. Per the Constitution, the military cannot be used against the people.

The Democratic party is (still) a party of corporatist conservatives. They just look progressive in comparison to the reactionary GOP, created by Nixon when he invited and absorbed Southern Dems into his party.

The Dems who voted yes to reopen didn't bend the knee because they thought it was best for Americans, they voted yes because their paymasters demanded it

This is why the Republicans really threatened to ground commercial flights

What a perfect example of everything wrong with the political system

The Dems who are caving are doing so not because their base wants them to,

not because the voters want them to,

not because the fed workers and SNAP recipients want them to…

they are caving because their DONORS want them to.

And that’s really all that ever matters to the corrupt

Excellent coverage of the philosophy that personal riches prove personal worth -- IOW, I'm rich because I deserve to be. Kind of like a secular prosperity gospel; hmmm.

Anyway, I'm not sure how far back this philosophy can be traced, but it sure seems to be firmly entrenched in today's broligarchy.
