Mike Johnson, whose claim to fame is a ridiculous selfie with Kid Rock, is furious that we’re pushing to force a vote on extending tax credits. You know what to do:
Tell Congress: Support discharge petition to force vote on ACA tax credits

Let's stop with the nonsense. This isn't football. There are no teams. We are the team. It's the United States. Don't let their partisan squabbles divide us on something every decent person wants. We need to take care of each other. — Jimmy Kimmel

So, what are the new odds on whether the Fed reduces their key rate in December lacking the usual info on which they base decisions?
News so bad… they won’t even be honest about what it is.

This administration is driving our economy off a cliff and trying to hide it from Americans.

This is the Canadian ad that caused Trump to halt current trade discussions with Canada.
The ad by the Ontario government on tariffs should be shared everywhere. One because it pisses the dictator off. Second because it is what Reagan said despite what the Reagan foundation says. www.youtube.com/watch?v=pABU...

George was just trying to get to work.

ICE pepper-sprayed him, dragged him from his car, locked him in a detention center, and placed him on suicide watch. He even missed his young daughter’s birthday in the process.

This man is a veteran and American citizen. Don't look away.
"They put me on suicide watch and they put me in the cell, I'm naked, in like a hospital dress and just a concrete bed with like a mattress, like a thin mattress and, they leave the light on 24/7."

Country fans are upset with Zach Bryan after he criticized ICE in a song.

But don't let it be known that Willie Nelson, Waylon Jennings, Kris Kristofferson, and Johnny Cash all despised fascism and leaned heavily to the left.

@hunterw@bsky.social - Reposting to improve the chances that he sees your response
I had just blocked the guy who was whining at me about Judge (who is now over .500) not being good in leverage at bats. It's too bad I don't remember his username so I can't unblock him and point out what a dumbass he is in the highest level of detail.

Rieckhoff: A vet on CNN said we haven’t fought to win in 20 years. I said, I was fighting to win. You were fighting to win.

Kander: That shit pisses me off.

Rieckhoff: He said he meant the generals. Which one? It’s boogeymen—and now cosplay warriors who never served join ICE to bully immigrants.

This is the message - on repeat. The answer to every question that your asked and the last sentence of every statement.
Btw, Democrats STOP explaining - instead you ALL need to say the same thing : “Democrats will not work with Republicans unless they stop coming after healthcare, they seat our duly elected Congressperson from Arizona, and they release the Epstein files”. AGAIN and AGAIN!!

I will take heart from the overall response to this shitshow.
And after 40 minutes of cringe-Thunderous applause from the generals!

Just kidding. Total silence. 👀 🦗 🦗
