Jeffries is down in the boiler room shoveling coal to keep the Democratic edifice alive whilst Schumer’s upstairs opening all the windows and letting the heat out.
I’m with dad on this one, shut the gosh-darn windows and vote “NO”.

US Supreme Court rejects bid to overturn same-sex marriage right
The U.S. Supreme Court rejected on Monday a bid by a former Kentucky county official to overturn its landmark 2015 ruling legalizing same-sex marriage nationwide, as the justices steered clear of the contentious case some 3-1/2 years after its conservative majority reversed abortion rights.

None of us should assume our employment is guaranteed.
Also, mass layoffs are happening across a growing number of industries, and the job market is BRUTAL. Anyone who thinks they won't need a marketplace plan in 2026 just because they have employer-sponsored healthcare right now needs a serious reality check

But the Dems will give away their votes anyway. Schumer is a menace to people trusting him to do the right thing. Remove him asap!!
Q: Will you assure House Democrats they'll get a vote on ACA subsidies by a date certain?
MIKE JOHNSON: Ah -- no. I'm not promising anyone anything.

Emotional labor is harmful. It’s sad to see a company that had a good reputation for treating employees well fall so far away from its values.
"Store employees are now required to smile if they are within 10 feet of a shopper.
They also must make eye contact with and wave to or greet the customer.
If they’re within four feet, the employee should ask how the customer’s day is going or if they need help."
🙄 Won't stop the boycott, y'all.
