"The Republican Party has created an entirely avoidable mess for itself. By taking a resolute stand in favor of making healthcare unobtainable for many Americans, and now threatening to starve children to achieve that perverse goal, they have made performative cruelty their political calling card."
Mike Johnson's lies keep getting lost in the facts
The shutdown is exposing the speaker's slimy disingenuousness.

Trump is refusing to comply with a court order to fund SNAP, despite having the funds to ensure folks are fed through Nov.
I convened food providers in the #MA7 who could go under as a result.
Republicans are letting families go hungry & devastating local economies. Their shutdown must end NOW.

“Honestly, the last few days [of shutdown] have been scary for a lot of Americans. And while we’re sitting here struggling and worried, they’re building a ballroom.”

Dick Cheney never made some heroic, repentant turn toward good. Dick Cheney was a war criminal who actively made the world worse—who also had two eyes and enough common sense to realize that Trump was a corrupt racist whose thirst for violent authoritarianism was a threat to the nation. That’s it.
Praise for Dick Cheney is not just nauseating; it's appalling. This man was a mass murderer. He lied to the American people. He killed millions of people. He is one of the worst products of the imperial United States. And Democrats are eulogizing him. Absolutely disgusting.

![< CUT OUT I NEAR YOUR COMPUTER OR TVI BREAKING NEWS CONSUMER'S HANDBOOK 1. In the immediate aftermath, news outlets will get it wrong. 2. Don't trust anonymous sources. 3. Don't trust stories that cite another news outlet as the source of the information. 4. There's almost never a second shooter. 5. Pay attention to the language the media uses. • "We are getting reports"... could mean anything. • "We are seeking confirmation"... means they don't have it. • "[News outlet] has learned"... means it has a scoop or is going out on limb. 6. Look for news outlets close to the incident. 7. Compare multiple sources. 8. Big news brings out the fakers. And photoshoppers. 9. Beware reflexive retweeting. Some of this is on you.

Important point. Without "Have I Got News For You," people go nuts. With "Have I Got News For You," they also go nuts, but I don't make any money from it.

i’m not going to criticize the FDA decisions enabling this, as i haven’t read enough on them.
but folks should know that these ads were illegal for most of my life. this is the first time i’m old enough to remember seeing one—ever.
it very well might be harm reduction, but it’s also backsliding.
