Wonder if he’s bucking for a pay raise from Bezos? Anyway, yes, they did show Trump turning to help initially, then instead of sitting down and paying attention to what’s going on, he just stood and stared. Me, I would have asked and paid attention not stare as if IDC, or stare because IDK what 2 do

If they are playing around with the CPI numbers, (which I have no doubt) that means they are playing around with social security benefits. Of course that means most of their base will be affected and/or their parents, but hey, at least they own the libs! 🙄😵💫😳

Throwing out the red meat of Obamacare instead of ACA…things are getting rough for them. Trump is yelling his head off at the Senators. They need to compromise and extend it for a year. That’s obvious.

Good explanation. Makes sense and she is aware of the nuances.
This is good, and should actually make us feel better.
Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson temporarily blocked a ruling that required Trump to fully fund SNAP because she’s playing chess, not checkers. She sent it back to the lower courts for a reason. 👀

Any Democrat who voted to confirm all but Rubio should face a primary. None of them should have been placed in positions of such power. Rubio at least had some experience. He’s been absent and I question his effectiveness, but at least he was competent. 😵💫😕

At times like this, it used to be the United States that would lead. That’s no more. China doesn’t care, Russia doesn’t care and Europe doesn’t have the standing because of Ukraine. Besides, as that fictional dictator said “It’s Africa and no one cares about Africa.”

Makes too much sense and that means the democrats consultants will reject it. Why? They rely to much on data and not enough on actually talking to people. They can’t and won’t get their hands dirty.
