Challenge Schumer since he has failed again as Majority Leader.

Yes, this is the problem. You have to do bipartisanship with a president who won by 10% and won every state but one---you need a lot of his voters going forward. Even at the Democratic nadir Trump only got 49.9% and now he's in the high 30s. You can tell him to fuck off.

This is a terrible mistake and hands a victory to Trump right after Virginia voters handed him a massive defeat. You are doing nothing to protect health care, and as for Federal workers, why did put them through 40 days of hell to just surrender for nothing?

7 million people marched in the streets. Voters handed Democrats smashing victories last Tuesday. Trump was on the ropes, and now a bunch of idiots hand him a victory and screw the ACA just so they don't have to suffer delays on their short flights back to New Hampshire.

Do not surrender to Trumps deal then.

Heritage is A-okay hanging out with Nazis in the present, but not okay honoring Black soldiers who fought the Nazis in the past.

Unsurprising that the HeritageFoundation has since been unmasked as full of actual Nazis.

Seems like a classic case of SF brain rot….real armies can’t and don’t operate like a SEAL team.

Not to mention that the invasion of Africa with a 16000 man consular army was a massive campaign that took a full year of preparation, three years hard fighting and a final battle against a superior force which Scipio almost lost! Not a *raid*

Now I feel bad about the zero words I wrote today for a project that is going far more slowly!

Very serious people told me that Donald the Dove was the peace president.

Wait, so now we're going to war with Venezuela and Nigeria and Mexico, and bombing anyone who breaths the same air as a terrorist or drug trafficker.....

I reflect on this grimly: if we are lucky, RFK Jr. will be the cabinet secretary that kills the most Americans by his malice, whereas if we are unlucky, it will be Hegseth who does it by his incompetence.

I suspect the goal of many rw shops to juice the polling averages, which do inform a great deal of mainstream political coverage.

Not really strewn....just one big honkin' insurmountable obstacle of the US Constitution.
