Someone saying expressing surprise and relief that somehow their premiums didn't go up as much as they thought doesn't mean they're dismissing that your premiums aren't catastrophic. Unless they expressly dismissed you.

me every time there's a helicopter

Call me Liz Paul cause I just hate rule by CR on principle even if it’s a necessity right now. DO UR JOBS NERDS

Here’s the play with Warner, send him emails asking why he voted to keep the gummiment closed and see what he says

Okay, anyway gongshow of this aside, a very important note: there is another cloture vote! 4 days, because Rand Paul is going to draw it out. The squishes have no spines, at all, and this goes two ways. Incandescent anger, especially at Kaine and CCM/Rosen.

“We need to lie more” is my most controversial political belief

You don’t have to lie to blame everything on Republicans because it actually is their fault! Democrats didn’t cut the subsidies, Democrats weren’t the ones pushing this to brink. And separately, I wish our side had more willingness to lie even when our heart isn’t in it

i think also senators are incredibly wigged out about airways, snap, and federal works (AFGE is absolutely why Kaine jumped on this grenade)

The major problem is he has no way to offer them anything they want

Hello if you live in Utah call Mike Lee and tell him to vote no because the bill is too Woke

This is essentially earmark to Timmy Kaine

The RIFs language is actually great. Not only does it rehire the people RIFed during the shutdown, it makes it an unequivocal Antideficiency Act violation to do ANY MORE RIFs through the duration of the CR (Jan 30) Completely stops Trump/Vought Phase 2 for now Would love to see this standardized

Call ur pals

yes, exactly. i understand why they would make this choice, and i can even respect it. but it is career ending, because you don’t have the nerves for what will have to come next.

Dick Durbin voting for this isn't too shocking, he's a squishy establishment-type who's retiring next year after all. Good news is that all three major candidates running to replace him (Raja, Stratton, & Robin Kelly) all put out statements opposing it. It's that bad even Raja opposes it!

A major problem Axios has (and politico actually has worse) is they don’t convey how substantive anything they write up actually is. They were writing “cracks are showing!” Shit 3 weeks ago, so how do you differentiate?

Not a single person running in 26 is gonna touch it

let’s be clear here 1. its not all Senate Dems 2. The most fucked thing is a lot of them doing this are actually retiring

This is a joke from Fox Sports lol

Some Senate Dems caving while other Senate Dems refuse to give them cover & their colleagues on the other side of the building openly shout at them for daring to cave is still us winning, even if it sucks

I am JUST old enough to have caught a taste of the Before Times as a young adult, and yeah, I have pretty much universally found that under-30 LGBTs *literally do not believe you* when you tell them how significant the turnaround has been, and HOLY HELL does it leave me frustrated at times.

this is where I’m at it sounds like the mods are going to do this but they should walk the plank alone no cover from leadership, whatever deal goes through the House entirely on Republican votes, and they own the cave entirely

this is the play in which sheldon rankins conjured a scorigami out of absolutely nothing. 30-29 had happened plenty of times and so had 37-29. scorigami only happened because the refs didn't make them stick around for the extra point

It’s under covered because the Dolphins are kinda stinky but Achane is one of the most productive players in nfl history????

Devastating for KC

Gotham????

Andy Pages is on a Forrest Gump like run this year… hit the comebacker Orion Kerkering threw away… World Series saving catch in game 7 in bottom of ninth…. Unwittingly helped foil a gambling scheme by swinging at a ball in the dirt. ☠️☠️☠️☠️

If this guy has a 15-year career, that’s approximately 14,480 more times I think about this scene.

I asked Georgetown law prof David Super wtf is going on with this latest demand for states to claw back benefits already sent out. He says the law doesn't allow for this, and if the USDA is mad that states already sent out SNAP money, too bad—they were following USDA's own guidance. Full comments:

KC ties it in stoppage time, Wheeler with the goal

This is especially true for medical care. Virtually any - any - type of cancer was a death sentence. The 5y survival rate for children with acute lymphoblastic leukemia in 1960 was roughly 14%. Today it is roughly 95%.

For Ortiz that’s like someone making 50k doing something for 700ish bucks and I’ve listened to enough radio of the years to know people will do almost anything for 700 bucks

What the hell are the Bill doin

Everyone wants to talk about wire fraud but you never hear anyone praise wire honesty.

Thomas Pynchon's appearance on the Simpsons

lol she got his ass and he knows it

Christopher Nolan teams up with materialistic, mononormative wonk and disgraced Elvis impersonator, Paul Krugman, in a new podcast which promises to be as shitty as you're imagining it to be.

no players from Germany in today's Berlin game but the Colts starting LT Bernhard Raimann is Austrian (and went to high school at the BALLSPORTGYMNASIUM in Vienna)

ruby rhod’s Controversies wiki page gotta be long as hell

Yeah :D

it's true and they should say it but it's a real bad sign it's winding up in print

15 percent of American homes lacked indoor plumbing in 1960. The idea that everyone in 1955 America lived in a split-level suburban home with two cars and three kids and one income is, quite simply, a fantasy borne of media consumption.

Seven goals for seven bednars

This is the end of the Atlantic Coast Conference

Fuck UVA lost it’s over.
