Speaker Mike Johnson has reportedly told the White House that most Republicans aren't interested in extending ACA subsidies.

Reminder that 57% of ACA Marketplace enrollees live in congressional districts represented by a Republican.

They're selling out their own voters.

What's your strategy for dinner with MAGA family for #Thanksgiving?

Will you let them blather on while you say nothing, NOTHING TO DEFEND DEMOCRACY?

Fk No!

This is your chance to ask, "What about the high prices, the military in our cities, the #ICELawlessness where they're brutalizing citizens?"

“The more Trump keeps bragging about the greatest economy in the history of the world the more people will see him as a conman... He can’t convince most people that they’re not seeing what they’re seeing when they go to the supermarket.”

America Is Finally Starting to See Trump for the Bullsh*t Artist He Is

Greene's departure represents another political notch in Trump’s belt, the retreat of another would-be Republican rebel. But the defiant nature of her video announcement hinted at the fissures now dividing the president’s movement. Lisa Lerer @reidepstein.bsky.social www.nytimes.com/2025/11/22/u...

If you're buying gifts for the holidays, maybe consider supporting artists, writers, creators. Gift someone a Patreon, commission an art piece, buy a book, purchase handmade jewelry, etc. Your support means everything.

This is one of the clearest instances where Trump’s business entanglements may be impacting his decisions as president. And that could come with a substantial cost to national security.

Trump’s corruption is a very real threat.

A reminder that seven years ago almost to the day, the CIA determined that Mohammed Bin Salman ordered the killing of @washingtonpost.com journalist Jamal Khashoggi.

I hired and worked with Jamal for a year.

What do you think about children being detained by Trump in facilities where they have to fight for clean drinking water?

Where the water is cloudy, smells & upsets stomachs & the soap for showers causes rashes & they have to sleep on concrete floors?
