That last sentence of the first paragraph is… interesting.
Trump’s DC US Attorney says that “Any threats, confrontations, or other actions in any way that impacts” what Elon Musk’s people are doing will be investigated by his office since that “may break numerous laws.”

The nominee for DHHS sounds like he’s been gargling with acid-covered gravel for the last 50 years. I like watching the confirmation hearings but this one is definitely on mute.

JD Vance’s internal monologue is the noise a microwave makes. He’s just on the defrost cycle and every time it beeps it’s Thiel telling him what to do.
Were there a thought bubble over Vice President Vance’s head, it would reflect his intense internal dialogue on when he and the Cabinet should invoke Section 4 of the Twenty-Fifth Amendment.
Trump continues to incoherently rant about January 6 as his audience listens in silence, unsure how to react. Not a great omen for his presidency. MSNBC pulls away.

For those tracking politics longer than I have - when did you notice polarization and politicization of “routine” government processes?
I recall the rise of the Tea Party movement, but was there some other political identify in the early 2000s? Or D/R, extreme polarization prior to Obama?

I must have missed the part in the Constitution where, prior to inauguration, a *President-elect* is given power over Congress.
Yet here we are.

Here we go again, with the destructive circle where Republicans claim to be fiscally responsible but screw the economy as soon as they get into power and leave a mess for Democrats to clean up.

Trump calls for abolishing the debt ceiling
In a phone interview with NBC News, Trump said getting rid of the debt ceiling entirely would be the “smartest thing it [Congress] could do. I would support that entirely.”

How is he getting that message to the impacted people? Look at the social media platforms where SS recipients are active. Where they get their news. X is not their primary source. And given that we’re all exposed to the fear tactic, he needs to deliver that message in real terms, where people are.

RFK Jr’s problem is that vaccines are injected into muscles. He purportedly only has experience with injecting substances into his own veins.
I mean, plus that whole longitudinal, peer-reviewed study aspect of vaccines. But I digress.

So when it comes to deciding what to do about your health and wellbeing
Would you like to follow the advice of an antivax grifter with a brainworm who eats road kill
Or a megalomaniacal billionaire who loves fascism and thinks he has all the answers
Apparently an actual doctor is not an option

Democrats better get on TV and scream at the top of their lungs that this government shutdown is on Elon and Trump.

Nancy was a master at counting the votes. When she was Speaker, nothing came to the floor unless she had every Dem in line.
She was an expert at playing the game, 2010 Tea Party to Jan 2021 MAGA.
Just perhaps - octogenarians aren’t the best voice for Dems.

AOC was on track to secure the votes to become the next ranking member of the House Oversight Committee.
Then Nancy Pelosi threw her weight around to secure the votes for 74 year-old Gerry Connolly, who announced he was diagnosed with esophageal cancer last month.
Nancy Pelosi needs to retire.

Not many people that cosplay as idiot savants can publicly garner this much gov’t financial support and, thereby, access.
Elon would be the kid in the dark corner messing with a fidget spinner if he hadn’t had the money he claims to not have inherited.

Vivek knows how to dupe investors and run away with profits before the stock, as expected, tanks. Elon knows how to buy someone else’s idea, pretend it was his, and use his market share to generate monopolies and manipulate markets.

Elon Musk came out strongly today against Speaker Johnson’s continuing resolution to avert a government shutdown, but his co-president Donald Trump has yet to weigh in on it.
This is further evidence that Elon is really the one who’s calling the shots, which I think is hilarious.

When I was in college (and broke), I took out $20 from an ATM. Overdrafted by $0.17. Bank let me withdraw the cash and then charged $30 in overdraft fees.
MF, if I don’t have $20 in my account, what makes you think I have $30 to pay for fees? Why didn’t they just block the transaction?? A-holes.

“Exorbitant overdraft fees charged by big banks – sometimes $30 or more – hit vulnerable Americans the hardest.
My new rule is capping them to as little as $5.”
Of course, MSM isn’t reporting on this.
