Congrats on voting for Trump to save on eggs. Now you’ve got $13 eggs, a fired wife, and kids who can’t even get a loan for their future. Worth it?

This person is _admitting on-air_ that she and her boss are violating a federal law that’s been in place for _a half-century_. That’s how stupid—and radical—these people are. They’re dangerous extremists and scofflaws and they should be referred to in that fashion by journalists because it’s a fact.

Griffin: Secretary Hegseth has decided to immediately pull General Milley's security detail. Hegseth also ordered the new acting inspector general to conduct a review board to potentially strip General Milley of a star in retirement.. All highly unusual actions.

I cannot stress enough the importance of local/state elections, especially in these times. The AG I voted for did the right thing.

Just got off the phone with a medical provider who accepts Medicaid. Because they are shut out from the Medicaid portal, they might not be able to make payroll. They exclusively serve low-income Floridians.

I think it’s cute how Dan thinks an oligarch who owns him lock stock and barrel will stop doing something that’s become his calling card just because he’s asked nicely
It’s almost like the reverse of the Pottery Barn Rule, i.e. “If you buy it, you don’t get to control it”...which shortens to “FAFO”

Shit ain’t gonna work. He wanted to be MAGA Soros and now he is. The Musk-backed Democrats will be slaughtered in the primaries.
President Musk knows what's good for you. You may think you know—you may think you have the ability to decide whether or not your current representative is serving you well—but you're wrong. A South African plutocrat with little education actually knows whether your family is being well represented.

The Musk-Johnson government shutdown bill has been soundly defeated.
MAGA extremists in the House GOP are not serious about helping working class Americans.
They are simply doing the bidding of their wealthy donors and puppeteers.
Unacceptable.
