I will not be pulled into the pie discourse.
Whatever is brought to my house will be fairly sampled. Approval will be shown by going for a second piece.
There is no shame. (Unless it’s store bought)

The only thing Senate Democrats should be agreeing to is an extension of the enhanced premium tax credits under the Affordable Care Act (ACA) for millions of Americans buying plans on the health exchanges and releasing the Trump-Epstein files.

Any Senate Democrats who vote to cave are feckless, weak-willed and gullible — or even worse. The American people want you to hold the line and keep on fighting.

I just did a little open enrollment experiment.
A year ago, I priced health insurance in case I decided to retire. With credits, $800/month, without credits $2250. For 2026, no credits available and $3400/month.

I bought my first mountain bike when I turned 50, with no intent of riding in the woods.
My 60th birthday gift to myself was enjoying a magnificent day in the woods, feeling no stress to accomplish anything.

BRUTAL JOBS REPORT: Just 22,000 jobs added in August. Unemployment rises to 4.3%. Broader jobless rate jumps to 8.1%. Slowest 4-month growth since 2020. Plus, downward revisions for June and July of -21,000. Yikes.
