The funniest thing about the Schmitt rake stomp is that if it'd been a Dem we'd have a week of think pieces about how Dems lack of hoops literacy was alienating them from real America.

Why can't they stop at simply "unthinkable" and let people make up their own minds?

If there is any fraud, it is being committed by the health insurance companies. They are the ones getting the subsidy checks, not the consumers. Even Trump understands that: www.foxnews.com/politics/tru...

They keep using this line and it's nonsense for many reasons, but also, if that's truly the case, there are only about a dozen "fraudsters" per state: the insurers. No one else could benefit from this particular no-claims "fraud." So where are the prosecutions of health insurers? 🤔

The weird thing abt the Bo French scandal is while people lambaste his gutter racism, they DON'T point out his attack on UT was basically a demand that less qualified white people be admitted over Latinos and Asians -- a demand for affirmative action for white people.

The U.S. was the only country to vote against the U.N. resolution, which encourages the use of an “Equal Earth” map. The U.S. described it as a “radical ideological project.”

In the past year, the Trump administration has killed at least 223 people in Caribbean Sea and East Pacific boat strikes. These attacks are extrajudicial killings and should be considered murder under domestic law and crimes against humanity under international law, writes @seharrison7.bsky.social.
lawfaremedia.org
The Boat Strikes Aren’t Part of a War. They’re Murder.
By debating war powers and war crimes, Congress is missing the simpler, graver truth: The president is directing summary executions.
