America is a "flawed democracy" bulleting towards dystopian hellscape. When democracies are ranked, we're not even in the top 25!!!

"It is unconscionable that what we are debating right now is legislation that will give 8 members of the United States Senate over $1,000,000 a piece and we are robbing people of their food assistance and healthcare to pay for it. How is this even on the floor!?"

The greatest idea that will never happen...
My political hot take is that US voters should be able to recall elected representatives via petition - at any time.
No more hiding behind election terms.

Communicating why a 50 year mortgage costs more, overall, than a 30 year mortgage should not be a hard task.
The problem is the average American is both functionally illiterate and innumerate, as a deliberate result of decades of the policies made by the very people pushing for 50 year mortgages.

Trump is the stupidest person ever elevated to the office of the president, and the most deranged.
He campaigned on cutting the cost of living, but he has governed to raise it: regressive tariffs, immigration, fiddling with the Fed, cutting renewable energy, and firing the person whose job was to measure all of this.

When you can't afford your healthcare anymore, forward all your bills to the Democrats in the Senate who voted against you getting continued subsidies. Let's show them what they've done in real time. Bury them in examples of healthcare unaffordability.

Americans are wondering what they're suffering for when the party who promised to hold the line caved over something as insignificant as pressure from airlines instead of going to the mat for their constituents who are at risk of losing their healthcare and potentially, their lives. #Pathetic
The vote to reopen the government with no deal on health care is a brutal blow to all those who have stood together to save affordable health care for more than 20 million Americans.
I will vote ‘NO’ with every fiber of my being.

An agreement to agree to do a later vote is NOT an enforceable contract so what in the actual hell are Americans getting out of this deal??

A+++, no notes.
Dems backed Trump into a corner where he’s advocating for starving Americans and hemorrhaging support. If they vote to let him off the hook in exchange for nothing it’s a cataclysmic failure. I know people are in pain but insulating Republicans from political consequences is not the answer.

My family has been without half our income for 40 days. It has been.. very hard.
We are willing to feel that pain so people can have health care next year, or to undo these illegal recissions.
We are not willing to have been put through this for NOTHING.

Why aren't they proposing to build infrastructure to convert sewage wastewater into usable water for cooling instead of stealing our freshwater? I'm sure there's enough to keep them running to infinity and beyond.

This sounds like hell. I'm gonna shop elsewhere thanks.
"Store employees are now required to smile if they are within 10 feet of a shopper.
They also must make eye contact with and wave to or greet the customer.
If they’re within four feet, the employee should ask how the customer’s day is going or if they need help."
🙄 Won't stop the boycott, y'all.

If you're wondering why Republicans took a hard pass on Schumer's offer, it's because its expiration would be a looming black cloud in the run up to next year's midterm elections. If you think the optics are bad now, imagine what it's going to look like a year from now if nothing changes.
