JFC, Vance, you came here to "engage" and this is your first fucking message? How tone deaf are you? All of us here are because we're trying to escape MAGAt hate and bullshit. What is wrong with you? Are you going back to X and tell everyone there how "intolerant" we are here? Good.

Raskin: The president derives his powers only either from the Constitution explicitly or from an act of Congress and Congress certainly has never given the president the power to relocate prisoners to foreign countries and there's nothing in the constitution that remotely vests that power…

Thanks to my friend Harriet for pointing out that the women went to Christ's tomb and saw he was not there, the angels showed up to describe what happened, & the women then told the apostles, who dismissed them. A Biblical account of women not being believed.

*Of course* advance information on US combat operations is classified. Pretending otherwise is an insult to our troops, who all know this.

On this #420day, we celebrate the 52nd anniversary of performers “Gail & Dale” singing the hit, “One Toke Over the Line,” on Lawrence Welk.
Neither had an idea the song was about pot, and Welk thought the song was a “modern spiritual.”

Sorry, we promised not to post much today but we had to make a special callout. We forgot to give a proper shoutout to a few places yesterday. Denver and Dallas Fort Worth, you broke records. You were incredible.

I care less about Signal chats and more about the blacksite offshore concentration camps we're sending random people to without any semblance of a trial, so I'll be interested to see if the national media can rub their bellies and pat their heads at the same time this week. Historically they can't.

This doesn't produce productive people or societies.
It exacerbates & creates immediate & delayed hardship & problems that cascade in ways that are corrosive to civil society and cost ten times as much to deal with while exponentially increasing inequality of opportunity.

So, the republicans figure many will use the options available to them to cut Medicaid eligibility in their states, such as backing out of the Medicaid expansion. Congress can then pretend they aren't responsible for the cuts, will say each state is just doing what they think best for themselves.

A lot of the Medicaid section, like "Equalize Medicaid Payments" and "Lower FMAP Floor," is about shifting costs from the federal government to state governments. The states - especially the poorer and more rural ones - won't be able to afford that.
