While we're at it, why do we pay for a fire department when most houses don't even burn down.

Help me call Ossoff. I can feed my neighbor, I can’t pay their cancer care alone.

(And if he folds I swear I will primary the man myself if I must)
So, listen, call Schumer’s office no matter where you live, no matter if you’re registered to vote. Leave a voicemail that says if Senate Dems cave without an ACA premiums fix, you will never vote for or donate to another Senate Democrat as long as he is Leader
Call them:

Schumer (NY)
202 224-6542

Booker (NJ)
202 224-3224

King (ME)
202 224-5344

Hassan (NH)
202 224-3324

Durbin (IL)
202 224-2152

Ossoff (GA)
202 224-3521

Shaheen (NH)
202 224-2841

Gillibrand (NY)
202 224-4451

Masto (NV)

Warner (VA)

Not that HSA instead would make this all that much more functional but an FSA infusion means funds that expire at the end of the year *and* cannot be used for premiums

So it turns out... the US air travel system was incredibly, deeply dependent on federal funding to just run day-to-day all this time, to the benefit of private airline shareholders, when everyone thinks that state-run trains are leeching off the government. Weird!

I know this is pedantic, but Kim Davis was not "jailed for refusing to issue same-sex marriage licenses." She was jailed for contempt of court because she refused to follow a court order (she had stopped issuing all marriage licenses). NYT makes it sound like the Woke Police broke down her door.

The White House keeps unilaterally taking entirely voluntary actions which it openly says are intended to inflict more pain and then they're I guess surprised - along with most of the DC media - about why they seem to be taking the blame for the shutdown.

every time you think the new WaPo editorial board can't embarrass itself any more, they manage to find a way.

Left: 'Texas gerrymandering is no big deal!', from August.
Right: 'Maryland gerrymandering is an affront to Western civilization!', from today.

This has to be a record.
In my Georgia county we had THREE municipal elections that are currently sitting at a 1 vote margin pending a provisional ballot hearing. www.mainstreetnews.com/jackson/news...
By just 1 vote: Three municipal races finish with just a 1-vote difference
It was a historic vote in Jackson County this week as three municipal races appear to be separated by only a one vote difference in the unofficial results.
