Apparently the “concept of a plan” for health insurance was to have Congress adjourn for vacation & leave my spouse with an unaffordable 200%+ premium increase, per her provider’s letter.
Life in America under Shitler and the Turd Reich. But at least we can say Merry Christmas again! 🤬

If bringing potentially lethal products like drugs to sell to Americans justifies a war, let me tell you about a product that by design kills (or wounds), was the instrument of death for 16,576 people in 2024, is sold everywhere in the US, and is easily obtainable

We are minutes away from “if the President orders it, the order can’t be illegal.” And he won’t even know he’s paraphrasing Nixon.

Diane Keaton and I once walked past each other in Central Park. I gawked like an idiot, trying not to, but she smiled pleasantly at me. (At a Vegas casino, Ali McGraw and I walked past each other when I blundered onto a shoot. I gawked, and she smiled pleasantly at me as well.)
RIP Diane.

Was dining at nice Vietnamese restaurant today & suddenly noticed a swarm of cops in the food preparation area. Realized why the “sushi man was unavailable that day.“ Immigration police were rounding up workers in the country illegally. This was a first for me — and happened in Germany, not the US.

People mistakenly believe monopolies are invincible. But the same forces that make them appear invincible, are also their Achilles heel.

How does the USA have the kind of governmental structure that allows a president to get his shit-stained hands on literally everything? Especially considering that the GOP, conservatives, the right wing have forever decried a Federal government. (Send link to your dissertation before it’s vanished)

Astounded that people in the news media call some dweeby little twerp who (purportedly) got his ass kicked “big balls” instead of using his actual name, as if his ridiculous self-nomination deserves anything but mockery. Same for the “one big beautiful bill.” Call it the billionaire bonanza bill.

I guess the Orange Reich figures to have good upcoming employment numbers to boast about with thousands of ice hires — perhaps some on Medicaid or high school work-study kids since pet dog killer Kristie removed age limits.

Almost everyday, someone in New York is getting arrested for demanding we LET GAZA LIVE. Folks of all different backgrounds standing up against genocide and for human rights and human decency.

Actually surprised that this bunch of liars didn’t simply forge a list of just Dems. In time, they’ll probably “find” such a list.
