Donald Trump’s approval rating has tanked and Republican suffered heavy losses in last week’s elections. There’s never been a better time for Senate Democrats to cave on the ACA extension.

The Nazis weren't just random 14-year-old skibidi 67 kids. This one was a GUIDANCE COUNSELOR at a school in Bay Ridge.

It’s pronounced ‘PRIMM-er’ if you mean “a small book” or “a short informative piece of writing.”
It’s pronounced ‘PRY-mer’ if you mean “an initial coat of paint.”
