Speaker Johnson has literally said he's "not promising anyone anything." For once, I believe him.

Again: This entire shutdown fight is one big advertisement for #MedicareForAll Making a broken system less bad is not a real answer and never was.

If the shutdown continues into the new year, I’ll be out of a job come January. We had the talk at work today. So honestly, I don’t care about anyone’s political views anymore.

America rejected Tmrp and his entire fascist cult's agenda yesterday.

Pope Leo is not mincing words about the “grave crimes” being committed against migrants in certain places. It’s no wonder the Vatican took a full week to publish this speech in English. But now they have, and we can spread the message. (via @colleendulle on IG & the Inside the Vatican podcast)

👊🏼 we are coming for Republicans 🤨

Ahhh. We all needed this. #electionnight

Trick or treating as Big Gretch #michigan #gretchenwhitmer #mileg

Virginia Giuffre’s family wants Trump to be held accountable now that the royal family has dealt with Andrew.

Pence is right about one thing. Chump Should Never Be President Of The United States 🇺🇸........

A little close, don’t you think? Isn’t he married? I’m sure the sofa is livid.

Many people are saying JD Vance had Charlie Kirk epsteined because Erica is his new couch.

What kind of recently widowed woman rubs her hands through a married man’s hair? Not to mention the vice president of the United States? this is so strange.

I never gossip. Except to save a soul. Or a conversation. So you won't catch me repeating the rumors about JD Vance and Erika Kirk.

Trump's approval ratings are already tanking, and the American people haven't even gotten to the part where they pay enormous costs for his stupidity.

And he will marry a certain blonde widow from Arizona I’m sure

Cost to fund SNAP and keep 42 million people from starving: $100 billion Cost of lost revenue due to tax cuts for the richest Americans in the top 1%: $100 billion One is decried as "welfare." One is not. Why?

The same people who think buying junk food with SNAP benefits is “abusing the system” are fine with wealthy parents using vouchers to send their kids to private schools.

It feels like taxpayers are footing the bill for a dying tyrant’s wish list. A ballroom. A triumphal arch. A war in Venezuela. He’s got people lobbying for him to get a Nobel Prize for the COVID vaccines. No bequest for the American people in his dying days, though. We’re not important to him.

JD Vance did nothing as Trump cuts costs his Ohio home town millions. Will it reshape the city council?

Top 40 No Kings Signs, #1-10 open.substack.com/pub/meidasto...

Literally

No Kings rally in Des Moines today

Israeli officials are openly defying Trump’s so-called Gaza “peace plan.” The defense minister says bombing will continue after hostages are returned and that Gaza’s tunnels will be destroyed “under U.S. supervision”. Call it what it is, it’s not peace, but a US backed siege.

Bibi is laughing about Trump’s “Board of Peace.”

“The world is big. The world is strong. And the world wins.” - the 47th POTUS, an embarrassment to the “world.”

Apropos of nothing in particular this morning, I've been told that, in essence, there are two things that physicians can't do at the White House medical unit: MRIs and surgeries. Virtually anything else can be done there if you have to or want to.

Seriously

We are literally on page 555 of project 2025.

Hey Speaker Johnson, swear in Adelita Grijalva. Or are you too scared that Trump and your other GOP buddies are in the Epstein files?

Stephen Miller froze after mentioning “plenary authority.” … but what is plenary authority?

Oh Mikey, the ER probably won’t treat her in a red state anyway.

You’ll never be able to convince me ripping an American citizen out of their Chicago apartment in the dead of night, zip tying their hands and refusing to let them call their lawyer is ‘America First’

What Angry says 👀👀👀 #releasethefiles

Joke is on you Big Cannabis - Matt Maddock doesn’t have a soul to sell. #mileg #michigan #shutdown #budget

Ahhh to live in a world without those fools. A gal can dream

if you have a Christian family you’ve been wanting to wordlessly abandon tomorrow would be a great day to do it

Whew! #rapture

Just 2 gun rights advocates sitting behind a wall of bulletproof glass while enjoying a memorial for a gun rights advocate who got murdered by a gun.

JUST STOP. This was not a memorial for Charlie Kirk. Donald Trump and Stephen Miller turned this into a modern version of a Nazi MAGA Hate Rally. That spectacle will go down in infamy. Don't ever speak to me again about how the Republicans are not the party of hate and political revenge.
