It's really time to hold Murdoch accountable for this. Not that any of the Murdochs are squeamish about this. But they like being accepted in polite company and this stench should stick on them.

Trump promised a health care plan TEN YEARS AGO and has never come up with one. Unless you consider it a "health care plan" when you cut health care and use the savings to give rich people a tax cut.

To be clear, 20 paragraphs down in the NBC News story that broke this information is the acknowledgement that Stephen Miller is driving the invocation of the Insurrection Act.
invocation of the insurrection act will be the key moment for everyone. the white house, any state where it's invoked, especially the supreme court. all public officials are ultimately responsible for acting in line with the constitution. a false invocation of the insurrection act, itself a ...
Nothing remotely resembling an insurrection is happening anywhere in the country. Any violence associated with protest has been isolated, mild, and, in nearly every case, instigated by federal law enforcement. If we let Trump get away with calling dissent an insurrection, our republic is over.

Donald Trump just floated using the Insurrection Act if courts block his National Guard deployments.

The Insurrection Act does NOT allow him to use the military for whatever purpose he wants regardless of the law—and it's dangerous for him to suggest it.
Trump open to invoking the Insurrection Act
The comments came a day after a federal judge blocked the president from sending National Guard troops to Portland, Oregon.

Adelita Grijalva won her election fair and square.

Now House Speaker Mike Johnson is refusing to swear her in because she would be the final signature to release the Epstein files.

Mr. Speaker, respect democracy. Obey the law. Swear Representative Grijalva in immediately.

If we are taking in “trillion” of dollars in tariffs:

1. Why haven’t we paid down a cent of the debt?

2. Why can’t we afford to not fuck millions of people over with expiring insurance subsidies?

3. Why is none of it being used to help the abysmal job market?

The federal government is taking over the California National Guard and deploying 2,000 soldiers in Los Angeles — not because there is a shortage of law enforcement, but because they want a spectacle.
