Jeff Basos has decided to change his Black Friday to Monday? 20th November.

Black Friday is boycotted, no matter if they change the date.

And Amazon is a company that is permanently boycotted.

Trying to think of a more vulgar person—or someone with less understanding of or appreciation for American history.

No one comes immediately to mind.

If I had that kind of money, I'd spend it improving as many lives as I could while also having a good time and living life.

This clip will be forever burned into my brain. When @sanders.senate.gov told them they would be killing 51,000 people with their vote and they did it anyway. It was like watching him beg for mercy at a public execution.

Adelita Grijalva tells Kaitlan Collins she’ll confront Speaker Mike Johnson tomorrow over his weeks-long delay in swearing her in. The pressure’s on — and she’s not backing down. 👏🏽👏🏽

A couple months back, I was curious as to how Bill Pulte was able to obtain Lisa Cook and Letitia James' mortgage documents. Today, the WSJ reports that he was actually under investigation for how he obtained them. www.wsj.com/finance/regu...

The Senate might fold, but I sure as hell won’t.

Families are getting crushed by rising costs & as these healthcare tax credits expire, it’s only going to get worse.

And now the Senate wants us to “trust” them to fix it later with a debate on a bill, maybe?

I’m a F-NO!

80% of Democratic voters want a new leader in the Senate.

Does that matter at all to Democratic senators?

Tonight’s Senate vote on the federal government shutdown should have been a time for strength.

Instead we saw capitulation and a betrayal of working Americans.

The American people need more from their leaders.

RIP Lenny Wilkins, one of 5 in the Basketball HOF as both player and coach, and an all-around mensch. Before the Jazz came to Utah, I was a Sonics fan (born in Seattle); Wilkins led the team to the NBA Finals in 1978 and to a championship in '79. He was so cool
