Re: Charlotte on the @shutdownfullcast.bsky.social, my friend saw a guy (probably Pat Harrigan) sitting in his car straight jorking it in a Target parking lot. Would he be doing that if he felt unsafe?

one of the biggest contributors to Elon’s loser energy is that he desperately wants to be cool, but doesn’t understand that a big part of being cool is appearing unaffected. he’s one of the most affected men of all time.
Joyce Carol Oates owned Elon so hard he's spent the last day posting about movies he hasn't seen in 15 years

Primary Schumer, please.
The average SNAP benefit per month is $177 a person.

The average ACA benefit per month is up to $550 a person.

People want us to hold the line for a reason. This is not a matter of appealing to a base. It’s about people’s lives.

And working people want leaders whose word means something to them.

Moderate Democrats saw that voters were energized and might expect something from them, so they needed to put a stop to that ASAP

So this is the second time the House Democrats stick their necks out during a shutdown and Senate Democrats stab them in the back.

So the NH Senate delegation is very much emphasizing the "Die" in their state motto.
However bad you think Schumer is, he is worse

Steadily pushing me towards not going to the World Cup next year. I was looking forward to the World Cup for years, but the whole thing is repulsive to me now.

Dying for some cooking Youtube/TV show to invite candidates on to cook a meal while talking. Have them go to a grocery store to pick out all the ingredients and cook something.

Seeing Trump wander around a grocery store or bumbling in a kitchen would be revelatory to some people.
Given this and Trump's past comments about groceries (he calls the term "old-fashioned"), there is a legitimate, I'm-just-asking-this-as-a-factual-inquiry-purely-based-on-the-president's-own-rhetoric question to be asked:

Does President of the United States know what getting groceries, like…is?
Trump: "It's time for Republicans to do what they have to do and that's terminate the filibuster ... we should start tonight with 'the country's open, congratulations,' then we should pass voted ID, we should pass no mail in voting ... you go to a grocery store, you have to give ID."

Roy Cooper was governor for 8 years, Attorney General for 16 years. He's definitely going to reveal himself as a secret socialist if he's elected to the Senate.

And, somehow, his replacement as Chief Justice is even worse.
At his confirmation hearings, William Rehnquist said that his infamous pro-segregation memo reflected the views of the Supreme Court justice he clerked for, not his own. As a Nixon DOJ official, Rehqnuist drafted a *constitutional amendment* to prohibit courts desegregating schools. Lol, lmao even
