same republican playbook. trump illegally deployed troops endlessly in DC. something happened. Now every immigrant from everywhere needs to be 'revetted' and the cycle repeats.

governor dewine, call back Ohio's men and women from DC, don't participate in an illegal military occupation of an american city

guess some men are above the law since trump got away with 2020. can't wait to see what perfectly legal, cannot be prosecuted for stuff he gets up to in 2026

republicans are now pushing for minimum premiums on ACA plans, because we can never let the working poor have a break from anything.

interesting that the GOP have criticized single payer as one-size-fits-all but sending a fixed amount of money to people to cover plans that vary wildly from state to state in cost is not one-size-fits-all

doubt Trump would have been so flattering to Cuomo

bought what might be my last tank of gas last week, now my car is nuclear power via lots of extension cords.

so its a crime when we the people say certain things about the president but he can threaten to kill us without being investigated by the secret service

its incredibly embarrassing we will soon be among the very few countries on the earth that do not have a national education agency.

hey texas, there should be nothing legal about maps passed for partisan purposes.

I suspect giving everyone on the ACA 2000$ in an HSA will pay people less than they would get from the enhanced credits.

so all last year we were told by the republicans and trump that the 1400$ checks biden gave out in 2021 ruined the economy but somehow 2000$ checks given out from money illegally taxed on imports won't.

"So much waste and fraud" Trump's admin says about SNAP. "128,000 people who may be dead or illegitimate" that's 0.31% of the program's total recipients. don't let a large number blind you.

another trade 'deal' where the average spending from multinationals is tallied up as investment in the US, an illegal tariff is slightly lowered, and trump's team once again completely ignores economics to focus on his obsession with trade deficits.

mark your calendars folks, January 30th will be the start of another long excruciating shutdown where trump does nothing, the house leaves for months, and the democrats are expected to 'just pass the clean CR'

so even though SCOTUS said in *CFPB v Community Financial Services* that the funding for the CFPB is legal, the Trump admin once again following the dictates of Russel Vought and Project 2025 have declared by fiat that it is not a legal funding mechanism.

once again the right fights the left and the left fights the further left.

excellent work obsidian, I genuinely hate the ACS Undesputed Claim. its annoying, claustrophobic and loud. amazing level design 10/10

hint for disney, if you guys are making another Indiana Jones movie just hire Jalmari Helander to write all the action scenes.

50 year mortgages sounds fantastic if you want to tie down the middle class and prevent workers from moving around for better wages

scotus allowing third country deportations has been an utter disaster for american reputation and the rule of law.

whats amazing about this shutdown is the democrats are basically asking for the GOP to keep things the same IE, renew the already existing tax credits which costs nothing budget wise and the GOP meanwhile refuses to spend taxpayer money on taxpayers because principles I guess

PSA: Some lithium 9v batteries from china are now 3 lithium-ion batteries wired together inside a shell. these stay quite flammable once discharged.

Trump will not be bullied into spending taxpayer money on taxpayers! thats for self indulgences like flying between golf courses

if 2,000 people vote by mail before the election day, 3,000 in person before election day, and 5,000 people vote on election day; republicans say only 8,000 voted because ballots received after election day but crucially cast before shouldn't count.

according to the whitehouse, opposing monarchies in america is terrorism

Remember, the Bajorans have the only actual, factual religion in Star Trek
