#Trump is a bad man
Coast Guard-run stores, which provide service members and their families with access to tax-free consumer goods, have stocked Trump-branded wine and cider. These products appear to be among the few times Trump items have been sold at a government facility.

Crucial thing to watch: The Dem blowout wins suggest it'll be way more risky for GOPers to gerrymander, because the GOP safer seats may become more vulnerable than expected. Rs in those seats will now be very nervous.

Exchange on this w/Dem operative Jessica Post:

This #shutdown can end in 2 days. All we need is for #Trump to allow the GOP to negotiate. #politics

So tell me why the guy who thinks he can do deals better than everyone is refusing to talk about a deal? #politics #shutdown

End the Trump Shutdown #Politics

$170B - ICE/Border Patrol
$40B - Argentina

$230M - Trump's DOJ "compensation"
$200M - Noem's jets

$0- Air Traffic Controllers
$0- FAA Tech Ops
$0- TSA
$0- National Weather Service

Thinking about how Trump loved to say “You’re not even going to have a country,” and realizing that was a campaign promise that he’s keeping.

So, to be clear: trade talks are paused because the President is pouting?
VARNEY: Trump announced all trade talks with Canada have been cut off because of a fake ad showing Reagan badmouthing tariffs.

HASSETT: The president I'm sure has his reasons. Sometimes when you're frustrated a timeout is the right call. It's probably a good time to take a break.

Seems like the guy #Trump who has made his career as the King of #Hatespeech is suddenly thinking that it's a bad idea. #politics

Apparently Ken Paxton #Texas needs to emulate #Trump more. Ken needs at least two more affairs and divorces to appeal to #MAGA. #Politics

I am beginning to think every #GOP representative in Congress has their picture in the Epstein files that #Trump controls. How can so many say this is a terrible bad bill and then vote yes anyway #politics #OBBB

Crossing the line into a constitutional crisis as #Trump defies court orders. But since the GOP have no will to uphold the law nothing will happen. #politics

A court ordered Trump’s team to free an activist. They refused.
It’s a case with high takes for freedom of speech and the rule of law.

Trump has cut science funding to its lowest level in decades. The National Science Foundation’s funding for basic math, physics, chemistry and material sciences research has dropped by two-thirds so far this year

anyone who thinks Kennedy will stop at the COVID shot is deluding themselves. The man was agitating against vaccines long before COVID, and his spurious arguments against the COVID shot are arguments he’s deployed time and again against other vaccines as well.
