@fetterman.senate.gov glad to hear you got fantastic tax payer paid health care. Glad you are on the mend without fear about how to pay for that care. Too bad you don’t think all Americans deserve the same treatment.

This is a blatant attempt to silence and isolate us. He’s stopping the trains, closing the freeways and firing live rounds into California. We will not be intimidated. We will not be silenced. #NoKings

California, this November 4th, the whole country is counting on you.
Prop 50 puts our elections back on a level playing field, preserves independent redistricting over the long term, and lets the people decide.
So return your ballot today. Vote yes on 50.

You know what would be fun? A bookmobile pod. Like a food cart pod, but an assortment of bookmobiles w/ different owners & specialties. One for Cozy Mystery with club chairs & a cat. One for comics & graphic novels with character art on the walls. One for Romance, Cookbooks, Kids books, etc.

Hard to blame the Democrats for the shutdown when you're in charge of all 3 branches of government, plus the Supreme Court.

A quick FYI: They have *just* relaunched the online NPR shop with bunches of new stuff, plus some throwbacks and, of course, the Tiny Desk hoodie. So if you are that kind of public media person, there’s some stuff to check out! shopnpr.org

Mike Johnson Pulls Shady Move as Pressure Over Epstein Files Escalates. He is trying to avoid responsibility for anything they do. He is protecting the predators. Be loud. Let your red hat senators know where you stand on this.

Speaker Johnson sold out his constituents. He lied to them. He prayed this betrayal would happen. He made it happen. So why should his constituents think he will save them? apple.news/AsCCuR2KoQqW...
Speaker Johnson pushed Medicaid cuts. His constituents worry about their own coverage — NPR
In Mike Johnson’s district, not only could thousands of Louisianians lose coverage, health centers are bracing for a financial hit. They’re hoping for additional funding to make up for Medicaid cuts.

We need to widen this gap as we get closer to mid-terms. I think red hats are counting on people forgetting about the cuts coming after mid-terms. Let’s keep the dialogue up.

If Mike Johnson’s right and the Big Ugly Bill doesn’t cut Medicaid…
Why did Tillis decry it?
Why did Hawley slam it in a NYT op-ed?
Why did Murkowski admit it’ll hurt other states?
The truth is breaking through. They can’t defend the indefensible.
