that’s what I’ve been saaaayying maaan

“This was a very very bad vote”

Senators on the brink of retirement who lived full, wealthy lives and never feared the loss of their own healthcare voting for their constituents to die from their inability to afford the same is treasonous

Not that he didn’t already know, but now Trump knows for sure he can roll the Dems every time and there’s no need to negotiate for anything

DONALD TRUMP: [asleep, drooling on long red tie] SENATE DEMOCRATS: fine, we give in

Kyle Kingsbury is not a journalist. He is not an op-ed writer. He is a computer safety researcher. And he has written one of the most compelling, comprehensive accounts of the ongoing hell in Chicago that you could possibly imagine. In under 1600 words. aphyr.com/posts/397-i-...

On Tuesday, Americans sent Democrats a resounding message. “Fight for us” “Fight for working class Americans” “Fight against Trump’s corruption, criminality and cruelty” 5 days later, Democrat Senators sent Americans a resounding message. “Nah”

This deal to reopen the government is fucking disgraceful. Tens of millions will lose their healthcare. Trump will be emboldened. This is exactly what’s wrong with Democratic Party leadership and why we need more people in Congress who will actually hold the line.

I read a thread about games with terrible UI earlier and this video has been destroying me all day.

I guess regular working class people are supposed to sympathize with the people who cave the second they might have to work weekends

Schumer can be removed from his Dem leadership role this week - 23 Dems (and/or independents) just have to vote to depose him And they should, given this is his fault.

The original Dem demands were: 1) Permanent ACA subsidies 2) Medicaid funding restored 3) No more blank checks for the regime (rescission) They dropped Medicaid immediately. Went silent on rescission. Cut back to 1 year of subsidies on Friday. And surrendered today. The Senate Democrats!

Senator Schumer is no longer effective and should be replaced. If you can’t lead the fight to stop healthcare premiums from skyrocketing for Americans, what will you fight for?

85-year-old democrats negotiating with the jaws of defeat: hey bud you hungry?

agreeing to make a terrible deal while your main opponent is quite literally being boo'd on live tv by an entire stadium of people is the kind of political instinct you'd normally only find in a 3 week old dead goldfish

Humans: capable of building entire skyscrapers but still afraid to put the scary number on one of the floors

even when the democratic party has leverage and one of the craziest election swings the party intentionally self immolates it’s just so exhausting what is even the point of these people

The average SNAP benefit per month is $177 a person. The average ACA benefit per month is up to $550 a person. People want us to hold the line for a reason. This is not a matter of appealing to a base. It’s about people’s lives. And working people want leaders whose word means something to them.

Schumer and the Dems are about to teach Trump the lesson that they’ll cave whenever he abuses power to sufficiently hurt people.

Things are fine.

Don't wanna be a cunt but whenever i see a post that's like "New scam going around, be careful" it's paired up with a screenshot that looks like this

The people can buy their own……. policy? From who, Don?

Yet another example of Trump shooting the US in the foot. Our abdication of moral leadership in international institutions like the UN, WHO, G20, and ICC only serves to allow our adversaries the opportunity to expand their influence on the world stage while we suffer. thehill.com/homenews/adm...

Meanwhile, CEOs make 280 times the typical worker today. The system is rigged.

I regret that the web is increasingly censored in the name of "child safety." So that parents can let their children surf the web without any supervision. For platforms, children are a user base to be exploited like any other.

I'm posting my first Hermitcraft episode tomorrow (Sunday). Its jam packed and was a blast to edit!

The regime in the White House is making devastating cuts to the social safety to finance tax cuts for the super rich. And the richest man in the world, who used his wealth to get this regime elected, is on track to be paid $274 million every day for the next 10 years. Oligarchy.

If Musk meets all the benchmarks of his new $1 trillion pay package from Tesla he will be paid $274 MILLION EVERY DAY FOR THE NEXT 10 YEARS This is his part-time job

BREAKING: In an insane moment, Trump blatantly lies that affordability is not an issue, claims prices are "down substantially" while they are up everywhere. Americans can see for themselves, the "Golden Ballroom POTUS" is out of touch.

800+ flights cancelled today because Elon took a chainsaw to the federal government and Trump won’t pay the remaining airport personnel. Elon’s on his way to becoming a trillionaire. Trump’s net worth has more than doubled inside a year. Glad everything worked out for them. How about you?

Thank Republicans for this.

One of the things that kills me about all this is that it’s just, like, maybe ten guys.

I would put more money on continuing to harvest infinite energy from the sun over assuming that forcing everyone to use The Machine The Lies To You is the steady basis of an entire economy

oh wow you guys made me hit 50k followers while i am not really posting much so thanks very much. here is an old something i made in 2022 before i was washed the frick up love ya #pixelart

happy gay everyone 🌸☀️🌊

that's a wrap on game changer season 8 (📸 = sean jacobson)

TurboTax makers Intuit have lobbied the government for years to block free public tax-filing. Now Trump has terminated the free IRS Direct File program, nearly a year after Intuit gave his inauguration $1M. Money in politics is the root of our dysfunction.

If you aren't seeing skeets from some of your fave people, they might have been labeled "Rude" by bsky mods. Idk what they are thinking, I don't need a mommy to tell me who to be buddies with. Anyway, go into Settings > moderation > bluesky moderation (advanced) and turn Rude off.

Wondering why no one likes your posts anymore, even among your friends? It's because @jay.bsky.team and team have decided to hide a huge amount of content from all of our feeds by default. Here's how to turn it off. First go to the hamburger menu in the upper left corner
