And with the ACA issue, as with every other issue under Mike Johnson, the House returns from many more days off to do a mad frantic scramble to get something done before 22 million people get screwed in 30 days, with Trump constantly posting and saying different things about it.

New Yorkers kept telling me the same thing: they’re thinking of leaving because they can’t afford to raise their kids here. Universal childcare isn’t just a promise — it’s how we make this a city for everyone.

I know you don’t have to be officially at war to commit a war crime, but I think that perfectly sums up the recklessness and the depravity of the Trump administration as a whole.

So, reading between the lines of all of this, Mark Kelly et al clearly got wind of this specific thing just a little before it came out publicly and shrewdly figured theyd exploit what was going to be a festering wound for the administration by messaging about illegal orders, right?

This is not politics as usual. We are not going to "just vote our way out in three years." We—including you—will need to personally get involved or authoritarianism is here to stay.

Congress must insist on "no USA trade with Russia for at least five (5) years, with no lifting of sanctions during this time, either."

The Trump apologist checklist after Trump or his administration does something awful:
1. Fake news, it didn’t happen.
2. It might’ve happened, but it would be OK if it happened.
3. So it happened, so what.
4. Whatabout [insert names of various presidents here]

On paper no one would ever believe America would allow a Russian asset to become President. However that's exactly what has happened in America not once but twice. Donald Trump is a Russian asset. Sent by Vladimir Putin to destroy America 🇺🇸. Psyops is real!

Walmart and McDonald’s are among the top employers of workers who rely on food stamps.
McDonald's CEO raked in $18.2M last year — over 1,000x the company's median employee pay.
Walmart's CEO pocketed $27.4M — 930x the company's median employee pay.
See the problem?
