but the caucus folded at the culmination of months of every democrat promising americans you would fight for their subsidies. but a day after air traffic problems become a massive news story, y’all folded? of course we’re angry. you lied to us.
Democrats have been fighting for months to address America's healthcare crisis

For the millions who will lose coverage
For people with cancer who won't get the care they need
For working families who can't afford to pay $25K more a year for healthcare

We will keep fighting

Did you know that in Canada, if a budget doesn’t pass the government doesn’t shut down?

Federal workers aren’t furloughed.

Funding for social services doesn’t dry up.

Failure to pass a budget triggers an election.

It puts the politicians jobs on the line.

They get the budget passed.

There will be ZERO tolerance for Chuck Schumer as Leader if this Democratic Senate cave takes place.

He might as well just step down immediately.

it's time for journos to start asking Johnson meta questions

"Speaker, on 5 occasions last week you said 'I haven't seen it' when asked about news events w/big implications for public policy. Do you ever read the news, and do you agree it's problematic for the Speaker to be so woefully uninformed?"

This story about Baltimore is intriguing, and it makes me wonder what other places are getting caught up in similar real estate manipulation.

They really just watched that muthafucka fall asleep mid-sentence during a press briefing with his cabinet about dementia and obesity and did nothing.

There was a guy dying in the corner and he slept!!

He’s sundowning in front of the whole gahtdayum world and there’s no one to check him!

At our dinner table in approximately the year 1956

Dad said, eat your food there are children starving in China

Today in 2025 I said to my children, find a food pantry and share whatever food you can, children are starving in America

Ok, who here in Baltimore has the hookup in cheap plastic whistles in bulk?
I have been actively watching contracts and surge funding over the last few days and what I would say to my friends in Baltimore is “be absolutely ready, right now.”
ICE poised to ramp up raids in Baltimore by Thanksgiving
The Trump administration has rush-ordered infrastructure to conduct raids, abduct residents, and detain people for months.

If you go to Bsky Moderation via Settings>Moderation>Advanced or directly at bsky.app/profile/mode... , there are filters that you didn't even know existed. Like "Rude" which is so vague and subjective. Is every fuck filtered?? It's set to Hide by default. You might want to switch it to Off.

The two worst things about life are that one first has to learn how to live with other people which is unpleasant enough but the worse thing is that one has to learn to live with one's self which is positively dreadful.
