United States, 101st Senator, Californian, American

I'm better than your current Senators -- unfortunately, I'm too honest for Congress! Instead, I decided it's more fun to have a podcast

It's really stupid. Here's AIs take on a famous scene from "Succession".

A reminder as multiple members of the Trump administration and the NRA use "he brought a gun to a protest" to justify shooting Mr. Pretti. This was repeated multiple times by the GOPs biggest donor.

So, can we just say that the right wing is just full of unprincipled bullshit?

Waiting to see if anything comes of this, amidst reports that 1000s have been massacred. I do agree that an Iran that is not ruled by the current regime is better for the world. I have no idea what a new regime would look like.

Charlie Kirk: "Under Donald Trump, no new wars. Period."

PLUS him and JD Vance talking about no quagmires.

Donald Trump's dangerous rhetoric about health insurance companies. It's not like a CEO was murdered about a year ago.

Also, this is a stupid plan vs. "just extend the ACA taxpayer subsidies for one more year".

From a prominent Republican on X:

(Paraphrase)
"Maybe your rent and car insurance are also going up at $100 to $200. So, the GOP is making your insurance increase too. It's not like you and your spouse can get 3rd and 4th jobs".

Grassroots Dems should feel bolstered that this went as long as it did. Instead of turning their backs in defeat.

I will leave you with the last polling I saw.

We are a 40/60 nation.

At some point the pain of the shutdown outweighs the benefit of the fight. That had started to turn.

Senator Wyden. I understand that, but what's the end-game here if the GOP won't negotiate? Shutter the government the entire FY? Both options are a GOP dream.

But at least it looks like the GOP may be coming around against health insurers....
