When we reinstate USAID, we can address what was so bad about how it was run before. What change would you recommend?
This is a documented case of public man-made death. Why? Because a government dismantled oversight, purged experts, and ruled by decree, all things our assessment highlights.

Trump beckoning Congress Republicans to vote to release the #EpsteinFiles is like the drum major, late for the parade, taking a taxi to take position at the front of the band that already knew the route, in proper peacock strut.

The price of groceries, the amount you must pay to get it out of the store legally, is a lie.
Right.
Right.
Rep. Keith Self on Newsmax: "If you saw Fox News just recently, groceries, gas, inflation in general is down under President Trump. Now, the mainstream media won't tell you that. But those are the actual numbers. We just have to get the American people understanding."

Imagine ICE being disbanded, post-Trump. What will those brutes do all day? Will they keep in touch with each other? Have we just created a permanent unified Insurrectionist army? Doing the bidding of white Christian nationalists?

A discharge petition would just be a new thing Trump and Bondi can ignore.

Trump’s delight in building his Versailles ballroom is eclipsed by his delight in raising money for it. He’ll maybe lay the cornerstone just before the primaries, but that’s all.
And the money will mysteriously disappear.

My blame of those who yielded to the #governmentshutdown doesn't compare to my blame of those who delivered the ultimatum in the first place. They had a metaphorical gun pointed at the poor. The Democrats' alternatives were limited. They won the battle, not the war.

Have you seen these video compilations of porch pirates getting karma through color-exploding packages?
What I want to know is, if I order one, how does it come?

The Republicans will never restore the ACA subsidies. We will have a year of crazy unaffordable premiums. The Democrats will win the majority. They will institute Medicare for All (single payer). And that’ll be that.
To everything there is a season, and a time for every purpose under heaven.

Trump is seeing: "I could actually build the ballroom. Or, I could continue to collect money for it (in exchange for favors), keep the money, and do my 'two weeks' thing, for four years."
Hint: he stiffed the demolition contractor.

Used to be, conservatives' hard line was that philanthropy (welfare) was the job of the citizen, individually or in groups. Over time, the GOP reply to Dems' "If it weren't for government people would starve" became "Starvation is good for you." #socialdarwinism #christian #protestant

Court decisions have the impact of strongly worded letters to this guy. I’m surprised he bothers to appeal any of them. Except for the delay.

We’re all familiar with the term #Trumpworld. The terms “Harrisworld”, “Bidenworld”, “Newsomeworld” have no meaning. “DeSantisworld” and “Abbottworld” is Trumpworld.

We incorrectly blame the #shutdown on Johnson's House dismissal, to put off the vote to release the Epstein files, by not swearing in Grijalva.
The true blame is on the GOP rep suffering a crisis of conscience, who knows he could change his vote, has passed by Massey's office a dozen times…

The thing is, he WAS on the ballot. Every candidate with an R after their name. #trumpstench
Mr. "I Don't Take Responsibility At All" thinks the MASSIVE BLUE WAVE was because he wasn't on the ballot, not
a Major Referendum on his 2nd Term.
Turns out folks prefer feeding the hungry over building expen$ive, tacky Ballrooms.
Looking forward to the midterms... 🌊
