Gah!
Still thinking about this story. Imagine how cooked your brain has to be on Fox News -- how terrified you have to be, every day in your isolated suburban castle -- to start *shooting* when you see brown people at your door, before the door is even open. We're such a nation of terrified cowards.

Remind people that Bannon and the rest of the MAGA leaders were all for Brexit.
I wonder if the United States can learn anything from the last time a major industrialized country decided to isolate itself from the rest of the world?
Almost a decade after the Brexit vote, GDP in the UK is around 6-8% lower relative to peer countries. (Source: www.nber.org/papers/w34459)

What happened to the investigation into Ali's grooming of underage boys? As if I didn't know.
Ed Martin was one of the first people Ali Alexander drafted into Stop the Steal. It was Ed who first texted Ali the night of the election: "Orders, General Ali?". He was a major player in Stop the Steal, Ali's lieutenant. Ali in turn said he leaned on Ed for advice and for contacts to lawmakers. 2/

The average SNAP benefit per month is $177 a person.
The average ACA benefit per month is up to $550 a person.
People want us to hold the line for a reason. This is not a matter of appealing to a base. It’s about people’s lives.
And working people want leaders whose word means something to them.
