Its very simple, actually. The voters should select their elected representatives, not the other way around.

Today we won a big victory in Texas but the fight for democracy is not over. We all need to steel ourselves for the battles ahead. We won't win them all, but we can never lose sight of what we need to do to prepare fee and fair elections.

Welp. There it is:

“The only bill I’ll sign is one where insurance companies don’t get any money and instead money goes to the people who will use it to buy insurance from those same companies.”

Glad we cleared that up.
So the plan is to give the subsidy 💸 directly to Americans so we can individually go sign up for insurance.
Same system but just “make it harder for people to navigate”?

And it still won’t fix the problem of affordability or protect against junk plans that don’t cover anything.

“.. Trump’s sexist comments are an attack on women’s dignity — and by making them, he strips the presidency of its dignity too.”

WOWSER! The White House Intervened on Behalf of Accused Sex Trafficker Andrew Tate During a Federal Investigation

“I’ve never heard of anything like that in my 30 years working,” said a retired assistant director for Homeland Security Investigations.
The White House Intervened on Behalf of Accused Sex Trafficker Andrew Tate During a Federal Investigation
Federal authorities were chided for seizing electronic devices from Tate and his brother, and told to return them, records and interviews show. Experts said the intervention was highly inappropriate.

It's profoundly different to cover a U.S. president than state or local officials, and too, much harder to vent publicly if you're female. But if in my reporting days, if anyone from a police sergeant to the mayor of Baltimore told me, "Quiet, piggy," I'd immediately insist he go fuck himself.

Fox News credulously reports that "the Saudis now say their investment pledge in the US will be increased to $1 trillion." THE ENTIRE GDP OF SAUDI ARABIA IS $1.1 TRILLION, so this is total nonsense.

It will not go to the 5th Circuit. By law it goes straight to SCOTUS. Ron DeSantis is a moron.

Remember when we were all about taking down terrorists and the networks that financed them?

Now they get red carpet treatment at the White House, presidential pardons and investment opportunities with America.

Times sure have changed.

When politicians get to choose their voters instead of the other way around, it silences our voices and keeps true representation out of reach.

It’s time to end this unfair practice and fight for fair districts where every vote truly counts.

So, basically, he’s not qualified to work at McDonald’s
Trump: "They had the line. The people had no idea. So I made the french fries. The guy was really good. He had a great wrist. He's going like, 'Sir -- nyha. Hhhhuh.' It was not that easy but I got it sort of finally. Not the greatest. But pouring it in."
