Sanders: Let’s be clear… If this vote succeeds, over 20 million Americans are going to see at least a doubling in their premiums… if resolution is passed tonight, we are on a path way to throw 15 million Americans off of medicaid and the affordable care act, 15 million.

Jesus, I feel old.
On the other site, an 18-year-old Zohran canvasser described the legendary Wallace Shawn as "the actor who plays Dr. Sturgis on Young Sheldon" which is honestly adorable

Work policy entitles me to 2 paid hours off work to vote.

Told mgr I’d use hours on Tues to leave at 5p instead of 7p. Polls close at 8p & don’t wanna rush.

Mgr demands to know why I can’t vote pre/post-work. Asks about my PERSONAL schedule outside of work hours.

PA had high hopes with this one. What a betrayal.
Shit like this is why I have trust issues with some senate candidates.

Powerful and moving interview with Virginia Giuffre's brother Sky and sister-in-law Amanda:

"He's just Andrew. He's no longer a prince... This normal girl, from a normal family, has taken down a prince. We are so proud of her."

"She was extraordinary. She did the extraordinary."

Amazon is helping fund a $300 million build of a ballroom for the White House.

Independent bookstores are donating to food banks and organizations that help with food insecurity.

They are not the same.

One month has gone by with no word from my brother. I haven’t reached out either. I feel guilty about it, but it’s not my responsibility to be the diplomat and manage others’ feelings all the time.

Visiting parents this weekend. Not feeling it. It’s like they’re tainted now I know they’re MAGA. 💔
Behold, my MAGA brother’s reaction when it was mentioned in the group chat that Charlie Kirk’s murder was ironic given his statements about gun deaths.

And my partner is the “vile” one for bringing up the irony. 🙄

Thanksgiving is gonna be real fun this year.

The largest war ship in the world has been moved to the Caribbean, along with other ships, bombers, amphibious vehicles and more.

That’s a lot of firepower to stop small vessels carrying drugs.

It looks a lot more like preparation for war.

Congress needs to get involved before it’s too late.
