50 yr mtg on a $500k house at 6.5%: Monthly payment $2,742. Sounds good? You’ll pay $1,145,200 in interest - over 3X the home’s value. After 30 years of payments, you STILL owe $291,000. This isn’t homeownership, it’s financial slavery. Predatory lending disguised as “affordability.“​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

Happy Veterans Day to all who served and those still in uniform. This is our family’s veteran. She’s a brilliant woman who went into the advanced nuclear physics program in the Navy. She’s a national treasure and one close to my heart. ♥️ 🫶🏼 ♥️​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

If abortion is murder, then what the hell do you call letting kids starve? What about stripping healthcare from sick children? Funny how “pro-life” ends at birth.

Mike Johnson has already signaled he will not bring a vote to the floor on the ACA subsidies. What’s left as a bargaining chip? That’s right, the Epstein files. This is about the pedo in chief and all their wealthy pedo friends.

Is Chuck Schumer in the Epstein files?

One micro highlight was my Washington crowd booing the life out of the orange Dictator and Chief yesterday. That’s was euphoric. Wish I was still a season ticket holder.

Did the Dems all sit down together over tea and brainstorm the best way to completely blow the momentum from last week? They fancy themselves grandmasters, but the board tells a different story.

Stop selling a pinky promise as a win. Accepting a December vote from chronic liars is a scam. If they will not give a one year ACA guarantee, walk away. And no, it wouldn’t surprise me to learn that the release of the Epstein files were being used as leverage for the ACA. The whole thing reeks.

Last week, every Democrat running won. 80% of women voted blue. The message couldn’t be clearer. Hold the line. They work for us, not the other way around. We’ve paid their 30k salary during this shutdown while millions are go hungry and are on the precipice of losing their healthcare coverage.

We have hours before the Senate takes its final vote. We need to contact the 8 Dems and demand they don’t vote to reopen the government without a guaranteed agreement to protect ACA subsidies. After the longest shutdown in US history, we’re not walking away empty-handed.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

Sure, as soon as R.R. Martin finishes Winds of Winter. Please include it with my copy of the new healthcare bill and throw in a signed copy of your infrastructure plan for good measure. Thanks.

Senate Dems are about to cave on the one thing they were elected to protect: ACA subsidies. In some cases, premiums have tripled, millions can’t afford coverage, and they’re just gonna roll over? This is unconscionable. People will die because of this cowardice. Fucking disgusting.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

Woke up to this headline. What kind of shithole country do we live in …

Now they’re coming for marriage equality. SCOTUS will get its 4 votes to hear the case, this conservative court has been salivating for it. Then they’ll destroy it. Millions of families about to lose everything that’s important to them.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

My hatred for him could level cities.

I didn’t know I needed Margaret Atwood until I needed Margaret Atwood. Every Scorpio woman has an Atwood chapter in her soul, somewhere between vengeance and poetry, our patron saint of eloquent rage.

It was the STENCH!

Chuck Schumer: take a page from Nancy Pelosi’s book and RETIRE. Your time has passed. Neither of you are equipped to handle the roles our current challenges demand, proven by your lack of aggressive response. We need fresh leadership. Stand down NOW.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

Holy hell! The moon over Tampa Bay.

80% of women voted for the Democratic nominee yesterday. Republicans, Democrats, independents. Republicans see it and they’re terrified. So now it’s voter fraud, rigging, irregularities. That’s all they have left. They took reproductive healthcare. Now they want the 19th.

Word on the Hill: Gary Peters, Jeanne Shaheen, and other centrist Democrats want to end the shutdown. Every poll shows Republicans are losing this fight. Secure the ACA subsidies. We do not capitulate to a fascist tyrant and especially not when we’re winning you morons. Blow up their fucking phones.

Democrats crushed elections nationwide last night. And right on schedule, Schumer and Jeffries want to crawl back to Trump, reopen the government, so he can gut the ACA, and force millions to choose between rent and health care while billionaires party. This is treason to voters. Call your reps now.

This is my body in somatic bliss after last night. Woke up at 4 AM and I’ve been playing this on repeat. The joy in Kurt’s face as he plays is what the blue wave feels like embodied. Pure ecstasy. A rhythmic dance of relief and hope made visible. youtube.com/shorts/ppVpI...

JFC, Kentuckians were calling election officials asking why polls were closed today. You can’t vote for the Mayor of NYC from a Cracker Barrel parking lot in Louisville. Put the “I voted” sticker down. Your election is next year. Finish your biscuits.

The wins tonight feel good. Mamdani winning NYC gives me a spark of hope. But let’s be real. None of this guarantees we even have midterms next year. It won’t stop the cruelty, the grift, or the growing urge to use our own military against us. Celebrate, but stay damn alert.

Hope is in the air. I can practically hear the wailing of the orange tyrant and his boot-licking fanatics as democracy taps them on the shoulder and says not tonight losers.

Dick Cheney proved you can profit from war, bury the truth, and still be called a “public servant.” Look around. His playbook is alive and thriving. No tears, good riddance you heartless fuck.

Kids/Elderly starving. Healthcare is unaffordable. Congress on vacay for 45 days to avoid the Epstein files and the adjudicated rapist is watching half-naked women dance around a spinning champagne glass like some grotesque Roman spectacle.They laugh at us while we watch this fucking abomination.

Happy Saturday fellow Scorpios ♏️🦂 and cat lovers 🤍🫶🏼🤍

Imagine bragging online while losing a basic order-of-numbers test. 6 comes before 20. Always has. If that breaks your brain, we’re taking your voter registration and giving you crayons.

He heard Halloween was a celebration of our darkest impulses, so he came as himself.

Everyone’s focused on Halloween. Cute. When the clock strikes midnight, Scorpio season begins 🦂 (October is just the trailer) November is mine. Magic. Sorcery. Debauchery. Saints need not apply 🍾 ✨

Not to sound like a frothing woke radical leftist, but I’m just saying… kids should probably be allowed to eat.

What’s the over under on Trump swooping in on a broom to save the shutdown he caused while cutting the ACA and SNAP to line millionaires’ pockets then demanding a Nobel from his sycophants?

Happy Halloween 👻 🎃

So… all that money they magically “found” for the people. Where’d it go? Why isn’t it helping anyone?

Billie just donated 11.5m for food insecurity and climate initiatives. It’s always the women.

That crusty syphilis brain is two TikToks away from trying to govern with horoscopes and a Magic 8-Ball.

The lunatic speaks

Amazon didn’t cut 30,000 jobs because AI replaced workers. They cut jobs to free up cash to buy Nvidia GPUs fast so AWS can catch up in the AI cloud race. The real threat isn’t automation. It’s that China wants those same chips. Follow the money, not the headlines.

The DoD just ordered all 50 states to train the National Guard for crowd control. They know cutting benefits, draining savings and wallets while laying people off is going to destroy lives. Instead of doing anything to assist the American people, they’re preparing to silence us.

Welcome to the United States of Embarrassment where the president (small p) spends his time churning out AI playground-level memes making fun of the American people during a government shutdown that he is 100% responsible for while tanking the economy. But how about that stock market twitch 🤨

This is so good. Enjoy 🤩

People with six teeth defending people with 4 yachts and 6 mansions. America.

The stock market hits record highs while normal people are losing jobs and food benefits. The GOP is literally on vacation to protect a pedophile. Nobody’s doing a damn thing for the people who are struggling to survive. This isn’t a healthy economy. It’s a rigged system showing its teeth.

GM. I spent the last 2 wks deep in minority communities ahead of the SNAP cuts. They’re resourceful, united, and unshaken. They’ve lived through worse, they’re unbreakable.The real collapse is coming for those white trash maga who built their delusion on cruelty like the peanut butter toast bitch.

No Kings organizers are eyeing Black Friday as the next target. Start prepping your kids now. Choose experiences over gifts. Rent a cabin, host a party, buy them a class, or give one meaningful item from a local shop. We have to starve corporations that bent the knee to this fascist regime.
