We’re about to invade Venezuela because trump wants their oil. No other reason. The airspace has been cleared. Embassies are being evacuated. Flights are being canceled.

He’s going to kill people for oil.

Revelations about RW social media accounts being run from Russia correspond perfectly to data already revealed by the Panama, Paradise & Pandora Papers: Russian money streamed thru offshore accounts funds virtually all right-wing "populist" parties in EU & NAmerica. Same goal: undermine democracy.
This is one of the big accounts boosting Tommy Robinson, Farage and Reform and ‘English Patriots’.

It’s Russian.

Republicans are trying to ram all their BS through before any upcoming state, local or federal elections. Lower courts are trying to hold the line, but for how long before they’re appealed. Our only recourse, Vote them all out. Every damn one of them.

Given the latest revelations, I'm not sure we're making a big enough deal that Trump initially wanted Matt Gaetz for AG.

The Epstein case against Trump is as if everyone is looking at a 500 piece puzzle with 2 pieces missing and pretending they can't make out the picture for certain.

Can we just take a minute and acknowledge that our POTUS is right OUT IN THE OPEN lobbying Congressional members to vote against releasing the Epstein files?! Like... what the fuck else does anyone even need to know?

turns out the emails we should have been reading in 2016 were from the NYT

Stop me if you've heard this before:

If the NYT still had a public editor, that person would have official standing to ask, WTF???

They axed the public editor. So it's up to the rest of us to ask, unofficially, WTF???
To recap: Jeffrey Epstein offered a NY Times reporter photos taken in Epstein's kitchen of Donald Trump and girls in bikinis *and* implored the NYT reporter to put this information in the public discourse in 2015

What did the NY Times editors know about this offer?

No, no you see, you just have to you ask for the super secret “cash price” when negotiating the myriad of providers. Sen. Bill Cassidy said so! and Rep Ronny Jackson is a doctor!
Under the rules Republicans want people would be very unhappy having to negotiate their own health insurance, and they would be much unhappier when they find out that the insurance they bought doesn't cover anything and they can be kicked off whenever they get sick
Yeah, people will be so much happier when they negotiate their own insurance because folks definitely have enough information to navigate that process without getting fleeced. And we all famously love negotiating prices - that’s why everyone loves used car salespeople.

SNAP shouldn’t be ignored in discussing Senate Dems’ cave, but they should’ve at least let the issue be litigated through SCOTUS this week. Then they could’ve blamed SCOTUS and Trump when they stood down.
NEW: The First Circuit Court of Appeals has denied the Trump admin's efforts to stop the release of full funding for November's SNAP benefits payments as ordered by a lower court judge.

The Supreme Court's administrative stay will now expire 48 hours after the 1st Circuit's ruling.

Moderate dems in federal worker states and a not job in PA caved with no guarantees. Stop saying you saved mothers waiting in line for food. POTUS was breaking the law by not releasing emergency SNAP funds. You are all cowards and GOP will eat you for lunch tomorrow. Stop smiling Tim Kaine.

Let me be clear — there are contingency funds available to fully fund SNAP while we are in this Republican shutdown.

But what is Trump doing? He’s doing everything in his power to withhold these benefits, making Americans go hungry.

The Inflation Reduction Act, which funded focused on energy production, on-shored manufacturing and improved infrastructure, but republicans voted against, and then showed up for photo ops when a project broke ground, created jobs and improved the lives of constituents in their state/district.
This right here, this exact sentence, is THE problem in American political journalism.

The IRA *was* cheap energy and good jobs! That was the whole bill! Democrats did precisely what political pundits are telling them to do and the pundits just ignore it.
