Democrats asked for ONE THING today to reopen the govt: Keep health insurance subsidies where they are at now for one year. That is IT. Nothing else. Republicans said no. So all the lies they tell every day about things Dems are asking for is BS. Republicans OWN this shutdown.

The cold truth

CT Governor Lamont has announced that he will fund SNAP for November in full. When the federal government won’t take care of its people, Connecticut will.

The announcement from reliable Trump NAZI Frau Elise Stefanik (right after Mamdani's NYC victory) seems to be a clear sign that Trump will reward this pus-filled mistress with some rigorous election interference (by DOGE or the Muskrat himself perhaps). Pay attention!

They can't hide from the Epstein files forever. I have some new information about them that I'll reveal on this Sunday's Breakdown over on @meidastouch.com at 3:30 PM PT.

'Complete failure of government' blamed for nationwide flight cancellations

What we have here is another example of the widespread pardons for Republicans convicted of corruption. A jury convicted Casada and his former chief of staff in September on a slew of charges, including wire fraud and money laundering.

Food for thought #HeathenHere

Hundreds of flight cancellations because we can’t pay federal workers. Tens of millions of hard working Americans unable to afford food or healthcare. Small businesses crumbling due to Trump’s tariff driven inflation. Thankfully we have this blockbuster deal with Whocaresistan.

Tell me more about ‘Sleepy Joe.’

This has me thinking about a mahogany box lined in ruffled cream satin.

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?

Why has the News Cycle forgotten about The Epstein Files? Swear in our Tucson Congresswoman Adelita Grijalva NOW.

Prices since Trump took office: -Groceries: ⬆️ 2.7% -Utilities: ⬆️ 11% -ACA premiums: ⬆️ 26% -Overall consumer prices: ⬆️ 3% Trump: “I don't want to hear about the affordability.”

California just reached a Caltrans agreement with Fresno to conduct outreach to unhoused Californians and clear encampments on state rights-of-way. Incredibly grateful to local leaders' commitment to compassionate action, public safety, and a pathway toward stable housing.

Hey Republicans! Open the goddamn government and release the Epstein files you absolutely feckless swamp of pedophile protecting sociopaths.

is she the only person in the USA not getting FFFF'd by POTUS?

If it was for refusing to sleep with the President, I’m not entirely opposed to it.

It's the first Friday of the month, which means we've gone 2 months now without a jobs report. For Trump, this is a feature of the shutdown, not a bug, since private surveys show the job market slowing dramatically. But without official data he's able to keep lying about it.

Has America ever seen a more disastrous administration after just 10 months? I feel like I know the answer…

The US is the world's largest oil and gas producer. Yet, "China is now making more money from exporting green technology than America makes from exporting fossil fuels."

Tesla’s profit fell 37% in the third quarter. It's been in the process of laying off 14,000 workers. It had more cars impacted by recalls than any other brand in 2024. Yet Elon Musk just got a pay package worth $1 trillion. American capitalism is off the rails.

The Lenape people were the first to inhabit Manhattan, which they called Manaháhtaan. They lived in the region for centuries before European arrival, relying on farming, hunting, fishing, and gathering for sustenance. Apparently, they voted for Mamdani.

Former Kentucky marriage license clerk and connoisseur of Mormon compound prairie couture, Kim Davis, believes that marriage is sacred. And all three of her former husbands (one, she divorced twice) agree. #ChristainNationalistBusybodyHypocrites

LendingTree: 70.5% of new tariffs were passed on to consumers, and U.S. consumers will pay $28.6 billion more in tariffs this holiday season.

It’s been 45 days since Adelita Grijalva was elected by the people of Arizona. Mike Johnson is still refusing to swear her in because she’s the final vote for the discharge petition to release the Epstein files.

I didn't even know the "original snowflake" was alive anymore.

How different the world would have been had the Rehnquist Court not been corrupt

Humanity is doing great The most evil American is the President of the United States The most evil man ever to become a US citizen after years of living here illegally will become the world's first trillionaire And the center of global democracy, the White House, will soon host an MMA cage match

Fox goes with real-world math over WH gaslight.

Are they finally catching on to his eternal grifting and gaslighting?

A new episode of @themartinpod.bsky.social drops this weekend. In the meantime, do yourself a favor and listen to this week's story about Fellini and Ava Gardner that includes an interview with Martin's son and namesake, Ramon. It's soooo good! I'm obsessed! podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/t...

Just sayin'

Sherrod Brown is 72, Janet Mills is 77, both have experience winning statewide elections in a tough Senate election next year. Both represent the mainstream of the Democratic Party both are running in a primary against people with no experience Brown is treated as the de facto nominee, Mills is not

I live in a very small town and I know what keeps small town grocery stores open: SNAP.

Nothing says ‘fit to lead’ like napping through your own medical endorsement. Get Grandpa Don to bed. 🤦🏽‍♂️
