Come on…is that REALLY Portnoy’s complaint?
No one “turned on white dudes”. We turned on people acquiring power through corruption, clinging to it with violence,using it to justify racism, misogyny, sexual abuse and economic injustice. And since not all white duded are like this, it must not be the “white” or the “dude” that is the problem.
Dave Portnoy Says He Turned on Dems Because They Branded 'White Dudes' Society's 'Bad Guy'
Barstool Sports boss Dave Portnoy said he flipped to supporting Republicans because Democrats branded "white dudes" as the "bad guy" in America during the Biden Administration

Trump on healthcare: "I've had personal talks with some Democrats about paying large amounts of dollars back to the people. This was my idea ... why don't we just pay this money directly to the people of our country and let them buy their own health insurance?"

Is there such a thing as, “stream of subconscious?”
Trump: "We will not stop until we've ended the tragedy of homeless veterans once and for all. I'd see in New York where people that came into our country illegally would be put up in hotels and veterans would be sitting on the sidewalk. Many of the people that came in were put in from prisons."

My guess is that 2 Republicans have been coerced into changing their votes…
Rep-elect Adelita Grijalva is expected to become the key signature needed for a petition on releasing the Epstein files when she’s sworn in this week.

That’s not really a cruel irony…
Even if the Senate voted to extend ACA subsidies, the GOP-controlled House is unlikely to allow a vote on them.
And there's of course no guarantee that Trump would even go along with a deal.
The cruel irony is that this will end up hurting Republican states the most.

I’m starting to worry the Trump will bankrupt our government with all of these efforts to maintain support…along with the billions in graft that we can’t even see.
This will put US deeper in debt while ruining our credit rating.

Trump must have a limit as to how much money he can withdraw daily from his offshore accounts…
So he’s saying all the tariff money we took in is gone and we won’t be able to pay it back. There was always a possibility he could lose this lawsuit and have to refund the tariff money. We didn’t prepare for that possibility? He’s running the govt like he ran his casinos.

In a way, I find the authoritarian takeover of our media system even more disturbing than the authoritarian takeover of our political system.
Our political system has been failing basically my entire adult life. But, the media system provided accountability and sort of worked. Now it’s collapsing.
