Really excellent questions 🤔
Who imposed tariffs?
Who cut immigration, destroying the ag workforce?
Who undermined the Fed?
Who halted renewable energy?
Who's running deficits?

Mike Johnson: "That's the reason the inflation is up, the cost of living is up so high -- because of the policies of the previous administration. Now, we're working to root those policies out and implement our own, but it takes a little time."

He's a lying sack of shit, in other words.
He said: "Prices are down under Trump.'
Me: "It is quite literally false. There's not a single way you can interpret a word that the man's saying..as being remotely reflective of either what we're seeing in data from all across the country or in people's everyday lives."

While Trump threatens controllers, US flight cancellations will drag on even after shutdown ends
Air travelers should expect worsening cancellations and delays this week, even if the government shutdown ends.

And yet Emperor Drumpty managed to pay the Gestapo to kidnap brown people day in and day out while NOT paying air traffic controllers...
The President wouldn't last five minutes as an air traffic controller, and after everything they've been through - and the way this administration has treated them from Day One - he has no business shitting on them now.

After you get done paying an extra $5,000 in tariffs on everything you buy in a year's time, Donny Two Dolls is gonna give you $2,000 back, & he'll use the rest to pay the interest on the $ he borrowed to buy big honkin' tax breaks for the oligarchs. You can't buy shrewd business advice like that! 🙄

Airline industry campaign contributions?
Senator Schumer is no longer effective and should be replaced. If you can’t lead the fight to stop healthcare premiums from skyrocketing for Americans, what will you fight for?

Instead we saw capitulation and a betrayal of working Americans.

Impeaching Donald Trump and a slew of his minions is what this country needs most right now, but it's not currently doable.
Removing Mike Johnson may be next, but that's also out of reach.
But booting Chuck Schumer

My red line has always been lowering health costs for Americans. Donald Trump and Republicans don’t want an agreement that meets that bar. I’m a no.

Bullies gain power when their misconduct succeeds in causing righteous people to yield in the face of wrongdoing. That’s why voting for Trump's continuing resolution - without any protection against his health care cuts or his growing illegality - is a mistake.
I voted NO.

The coordinated nature of this—none are facing voters in 2026—means that either Schumer approved it or failed in his job as Senate Majority Leader to stop it.
Dems voting "no" get zero credit until they demand a change in leadership. Schumer out as Leader, Durbin out as Whip.

The politics of the shutdown:
*GOP had a strong opening position
*Undercut themselves with the RIFs and unnecessary cuts to blue states/SNAP
*Polls showed GOP getting most of the blame, no reason to assume that would change
*Dem centrists then folded on their key issue of ACA subsidies

Sanders: Let’s be clear… If this vote succeeds, over 20 million Americans are going to see at least a doubling in their premiums… if resolution is passed tonight, we are on a path way to throw 15 million Americans off of medicaid and the affordable care act, 15 million.

Sen. Bernie Sanders said the pledge to hold a vote on extending the subsidies would be a “wasteful gesture” unless “you have the commitment of the speaker of the House that he will support it and that the president of the United States will sign it.”
