Dear god, I just heard a GOP congressman refer to the “affordable care act” as the “unaffordable care act”.

This is the stupid shut we’re gonna hear over and over and over again, as they try to explain their idiotic views…

Rocket Money appears to have dropped its sponsorship of Tucker Carlson's show after it was called out by @juddlegum.bsky.social and @popular.info.

Will more advertisers follow suit amid the Nick Fuentes backlash?

I don't care how Schumer himself votes. The bottom line is that as Senate Majority Leader, Lyndon Johnson would have last night had on his desk eight sealed mason jars with the severed hands of every senator who even thought about raising them to vote yes. As a majority leader should.

I REALLY hope this is just a way to get into the room, and that they won’t just cave with no concessions. Because the other side can’t be trusted, and are at fault

My favorite player growing up, then somehow a friend later in life.

His foundation looked after kids who needed a little help.

Classy and kind and kept his Brooklyn accent.

This is the correct explanation of what happened tonight👇
KBJ threaded the needle thanks to CA1’s unfinished business.

-if she denied the admin stay, the full SCOTUS woulda stepped in to override her.
-if she immediately referred the case to the full Court, they coulda dragged feet.
-instead she boxed them in to act quickly once she does refer the case.

The Dem messaging moving forward should point to this chaos, identify to voters that D’s care and want govern, R’s don’t care and can’t. Example number #15,009,876 from this month alone!
The White House keeps unilaterally taking entirely voluntary actions which it openly says are intended to inflict more pain and then they're I guess surprised - along with most of the DC media - about why they seem to be taking the blame for the shutdown.
