Vassy: I think back to the last time we, as a country,were in a crisis in 2008–09. Why was it okay for Harper to spend on infrastructure then and not now?

Scheer: The difference was targeted investments after years of balanced budgets

Except that Harper ran 5 straight deficits but that was ok? 🤦🏽‍♂️🙄

1. On September 23, Adelita Grijalva won a special Congressional election in Arizona, collecting 69% of the vote.

43 days later, Speaker Johnson has not sworn her in.

The delay, 8 days longer than the previous record, has prevented Grijalva from forcing a vote to release the Epstein files.

Thank you, @jessicatarlov.bsky.social for saying what no one else will

“The government has killed 32 people in 7 strikes with no proof they were traffickers. The admiral leading the mission quit. If we had evidence, they’d face a court, not a drone.”

It has been said before, but it bears repeating: the elderly who’ve worked their entire lives to get $800 a month on Social Security aren’t bankrupting America. It’s tax-evading billionaires like Trump who are bleeding this country dry.

Chatted on messenger a few days ago with USA friend who lives in a nice Chicago suburb. She shared this with me: “

“Hi John - History will record this as a very dark time for our country. I have faith and hope. I’m praying that democracy and our country’s value system survive. 🙏🏼❤️”
