This is a core element of conservative philosophy: If a single "undeserving" person is getting a government benefit, the answer is to take it away from millions.*

It’s *still* pedophilia, even when the victims are teenagers.

Trump and the Republican Party have had 10 years to propose solutions to our healthcare problems.

All they have EVER come back with is to repeal the ACA and bring back the horrid conditions we had prior to the ACA.

They have nothing.
“'We’re gonna pay a lot of money to the people. They’re gonna go out and buy their own health care, and we’re gonna forget this Obamacare madness,' Trump said"
Expecting to see a new product from Don, Jr. and Eric Trump: "Crypto Care". 1/
As health insurance bills rise, Republicans are still seeking an Obamacare alternative
Premiums for millions of Americans in red and blue states are expected to more than double on average next year unless Congress finds a solution.

Perfect example of political media operating under the post-truth standard that (1) distorts the facts until the parties look approximately equal, and (2) holds “do MAGA voters care?” as a higher standard than “is it true?” or “is it important for the public to know about this?”

Important to understand the Epstein stuff and the fascism and the corruption are, in a lot of ways, really all the same story from different angles: powerful men who can and do abuse vulnerable people around them because they can, and because systems of elite accountability catastrophically failed

Best case: The President of the United States knew about a pedophilia ring and did nothing to stop it.

Medium case: He also used his office to protect the perpetrators.

Worst case: Because he was one of the perpetrators.

One of the defining feelings in American life, for decades now, is elites doing plainly criminal shit and nothing at all happening as a result. It is deranging in a way that virtually nothing else is. Media fixates on perceived street lawlessness but shit like this matters much more in my opinion.
