I’ve been doing that with some friends, quietly. (Jokingly calling in Project 2029 but really The Truth and Consequences Agenda). Key things involve utterly destroying GOP power structures and bases, packing the union and the courts…

Rats can sense the ship taking on water
Rep. Jodey Arrington, who chairs the powerful House Budget Committee, unexpectedly announces he will not seek reelection after five terms representing dark red West Texas in Congress. Arrington is 53, an age when many aspiring politicians still want to *reach* the House.

I've thought about this so often. In the US, hormonal birth control is a $7 billion industry, ADHD medication is $11B. Vaccines are $29.5B!! All at various positions in the crosshairs of the current health regime.
WHATTTT is all the $ spent on pharma lobbying fucking BUYING THEM????

ok Big Pharma spends so, so much more money on lobbyists for both parties than Israel does
Big Pharma clearly does not control the government
why do people attribute things like the shutdown to AIPAC when clearly lobbying money cannot even protect Tylenol from being slandered

Would be sort of cute to challenge this under the 27th amendment
Look at this new outrage. To open govt, we're retroactively letting 8 Senators sue for $500K each over having had their J6 phone toll records looked at. www.nytimes.com/2025/11/10/u...
Spending Bill Would Pave Way for Senators to Sue Over Phone Searches

The ACA cuts happened in the reconciliation bill in July, every single Democrat voted against it and they got 3 detectors so Vance had to break the tie, and the Dems just shut down the government for 40 days to try and get them to undo it, it is absolutely deranged to blame this on “Democrats”
Yes - this is a loss because Democrats have now signed on to ACA cuts as a complicit party and once again made it a less effective issue for the mid terms
From that perspective, this would be a failure, right? Because the Dems lose the narrative that they did everything to stand in the way of ACA cuts.

I’m annoyed they’re folding but also a lot of people need to inspect if they’re this mad because they think it’s unprincipled and bad politics or because they’re mad we have no power while these fascists year the country apart.

The trait we need to be selecting for in primaries is a deep, unending loathing of Republicans and their political ideology. I don’t really care if someone is moderate or progressive or a Dem Soc like me. I want them to hate the Republican Party with every fiber of their being. I want them

wow, have to wonder how something like this was ever allowed to happen AND how it could will affect the next MLB season. Luckily I got some great tips on just how it might, so if you log in to Draft Kings right now with promo code NUTERADAMUS, you can get $10 off on your next bet of $50 or more -

The wildcard here is does the Supreme Court fixing the tariff madness correct for some of this
Ipsos finds Trump’s approval rating is decreasing almost entirely because of anti-incumbent economic anxiety. Approval rating among people who say the economy is the # 1 issue is -24pts since Jan. It’s stable for people who index on all other issues www.ipsos.com/en-us/lesson...

This is exactly what they’re proposing and the absence of a risk pool will cause the catastrophic collapse of the healthcare system and a large number of unnecessary deaths and untreated illness
Wait, are the GOP proposing a HSA to replace the ACA that you can use to purchase healthcare and not health insurance? That’s the dumbest possible solution what the hell.
