We've had guardianship of our niece since she was nine, and now she's a junior at Sewanee. Her monthly insurance thru BC/BS is currently $69/month. We just received a preliminary estimate of her premium being over $700/month.

Our very stable genius in the Oval Office has (again) gone off about magnets, saying no one knows what they are.
Did this idiot not play with magnets as a child? He behaves as if it's some new technology on crackpots would understand...

The eight Democratic Senators who voted to end the shutdown without saving the healthcare funding should forever be called "spelunkers". They've caved to Republican demands.

I'm convinced. The Senate needs a new minority leader. When your most strident position is to write a "sternly worded letter", maybe you should be watering orchids back home, or something. Schumer needs to follow Pelosi's lead and step down.

Millions of American couples are nervous because their marital status is at the whims of the Supreme Court's pending ruling on same-sex marriage. Health insurance, life and death medical decisions, all tied to one's marital status. Should Clarence Thomas's interracial marriage be struck down, next?

People using gas powered leaf blowers should be required to pay every neighbor within earshot a $50 annoyance fee.
Got a neighbor who spends every hour of his free time out in his yard chasing leaves around, even though most of them have yet to fall from his trees.
Unnecessary noise...

SNAP benefits will be gone, small businesses will suffer, insurance premiums will double, air traffic will be delayed/halted: All of these things are happening because when the gov't shutdown ends, the Epstein Files get released.

NEW: "Bomb threats force closures at some New Jersey polling places." The bomb threats are in heavily Democratic districts. The GOP is back to cheating like they did in 2024. This is more evidence of how MAGA is a threat to our democratic Republic.

Before anyone forgets... Dick Cheney was a war criminal who deserved to face a tribunal at The Hague.
Just because the asshole was bright enough to recognize Donald Trump as a threat to democracy doesn't provide absolution for the hundreds of thousands of deaths he helped facilitate.

it's time for journos to start asking Johnson meta questions
"Speaker, on 5 occasions last week you said 'I haven't seen it' when asked about news events w/big implications for public policy. Do you ever read the news, and do you agree it's problematic for the Speaker to be so woefully uninformed?"

There are so many little charming royal traditions in Britain, like the letter the monarch sends out when someone turns 100, or the text little girls receive from Prince Andrew when they turn 14.
