MAGA/GOP: healthcare in America was cheaper when the people that needed it couldn’t have it, and when everyone else paid for something they never used that was ridden with loopholes to deny them care if they did get sick.

It’s the “season of love and giving”…but this year, doesn’t it seem more like a “season of fear and taking”? Like many of you, I’ve been saddened by the human impact of draconian government budget cuts and how angry many housed Americans are at unhoused Americans.

I knew Trump's post about Rob Reiner would make at least one of the late-night guys snap. I hope all of them do, but since his got out there first, I can now confirm that at least Seth did, and he did so perfectly. www.youtube.com/watch?v=CUW2...

Newsmax host to Leavitt on Trump's farm bailout: "It's not funded by tax dollars. It's funded by tariffs."

"That's right," Leavitt replies

(Tariffs are taxes on American importers)

All of these new rulings don’t just affect today, they rewrite precedent. Trump still has three years left, and whatever expanded powers the Court hands him now will automatically pass to the next president as well.

Himes: "I think it's really important this video by made public ... it's important people see what it looks like when the full force of the US military is turned on two guys who are clinging to a piece of wood and about to go under just so they have a visceral feel for what it is we're doing"

Having Universal Basic Income would make it easier to walk away from terrible working conditions, abusive management, or, oh I don't know, refuse to follow illegal orders? Which is exactly why the people in charge don't WANT us to have UBI. A scared populace, a hungry populace, is easier to control.

the idea that a handful of conservative legal scholars have an understanding that should supersede a settlement affirmed my generations of american is astoundingly arrogant, and the idea that trump — or any president — can unilaterally overturn that settlement is just despotism

There isn’t much for our Supreme Court to hear, the Constitution is already clear. And just to be absolutely clear: the Supreme Court does not have the power to overrule or rewrite our Constitution.

It might be easy to find things like this merely petty or superficial, but that would be a mistake. Demeaning, erasing or eliminating celebrations or acknowledgments of Black America is straight from Redemption playbook, and is intended to reinforce the racial hierarchy and signal its reinstatement.

since we're doing USPS discourse again, a reminder of what Dems should be saying
"the USPS is a miracle. it's in the constitution. for the price of a single stamp you can send a letter across the country, from Hawaii to Maine. Trump is trying to take that away from you. He's attacking Christmas cards and wedding invitations. It's un-American and it has to stop."

MIKE JOHNSON: More. More. And I have to, because President Trump works 21 hours a day.

I would love to work in a movie theater, or manage a video game or book store, or even just stock shelves if it paid enough and everyone had health insurance. It's interesting to think about what kind of work you would truly enjoy if your basic needs were met.

President Trump has now pardoned 12 members of Congress convicted of crimes varying from tax evasion, campaign corruption, lying to the FBI, bribery, insider trading, obstruction, etc.

If Jeff Epstein were alive today, he’d be a free man in Trump’s America.
