It's going to take more than water to wash away that BS or the stains on those who enabled this; they are indelible.

So the POS POTUS who claims to be wiping out drug trafficking by murdering people with no due process or without even knowing if there are drugs involved pardons one of the most notorious drug traffickers.

This would continue the grift the Health Care Industry has perpetrated on U.S. consumers by allowing them to continue to make money from those savings accounts. This is not a Plan, it's another scheme.

Either Ivanka has no knowledge of where that quote came from or she does know and decided to use it anyway, once again relying on the ignorance of the MAGA minions. I'm unsure which of the two explanations is more egregious.

Serious question here: How is Pirro managing to speak and the rest of the sycophants managing to breathe without gagging and choking through all the BS that's packed into every square inch of that once dignified and classic room?

Interestingly, Sliwa relates being stabbed with darts and having no bill because of the NHS and that in the states the bill would have been "astronomical", Amy H says, "And it would have been a gun as well." Outrageous medical bills and out of control guns. Welcome to America.

Carving out a special little "Laws Don't Apply to Me" space, are we? Great. What else?

I learned this morning from a post here that on the anniversary, 31 bells are rung from the mariner's church. 1 for each of the 29 men, 1 for all sailors lost on the lake, and the 31st bell was added to honor Lightfoot in 2023, the year he died. A fitting tribute.

Shaheen and some of the others are not up for re-election until 2028. They count on the fact that Americans have very short memories.

It's confusing because of all of the different private plans that were allowed to compete with traditional Medicare and call themselves Medicare Plans. You're right. It can make your head spin.

Medicare For All - Single Payer. Do it. It's way past time and would be less expensive all around. Problem is that too many people are making too much money on the broken system we have to consider replacing it with something they can't profit as easily from.

Will that be before or after Sean Duffy puts a nuclear reactor on the moon? Replacing skilled air traffic controllers within weeks is about as plausible.

Too bad Senator J Shaheen didn't demand the answers about this from Rubio before she capitulated to the Repubs in last night's vote.The leader of Equatorial Guinea is one of the most corrupt leaders in the world,impoverishing his people (70% in poverty) to fund his lavish lifestyle. Sound familiar?

Absolutely, the cost of bringing this to the Supreme Court would probably have far exceeded what she has to pay in fines for failing to do her job.
