Remember: The concentration of wealth in the hands of a few isn't just bad for our economy. It's corrosive to our democracy. When the wealthy and well-connected control our political system, regular people don't have a voice. The result? The demagoguery and corruption we're seeing now.

Ahem. It's the job of the President to appoint DAs - with advice and consent from the Senate. The President can ignore that rule - but only once (per district) and only for 120 days. Do you know who appoints DAs after the 120 day mark has passed? Pam Bondi doesn't. Because it's the judiciary.

NPR reported this morning that, based on their review of the #Epstein emails released yesterday, Trump’s name appeared more than 1,000 times in the document— "I have met some very bad people, none as bad as #Trump. Not one decent cell in his body." - Jeffrey Epstein

Allowing millions of Americans to lose access to their healthcare because it's become unaffordable is not a fair tradeoff to me Trump's people fight harder to justify extrajudicial murders of boaters than we did to preserve the ACA subsidies
"The political logic of the shutdown fight was inverted: If Democrats got
the tax credits extended-if they 'won'-they would be solving a huge
electoral problem for Republicans," reported the Times. "If Republicans
successfully allowed the tax credits to expire-if they 'won'-they would
be handing Democrats a cudgel with which to beat them in the elections."

Without the premium tax credits, health insurance premiums for more
than 20 million Americans are expected to double.

The result, according to policy experts, will be a mass exodus from
Obamacare plans altogether, leaving roughly four million Americans
uninsured. The spike in uninsured Americans will spur a public health
problem that has historically proved to make premiums more expensive
for the insured as hospitals look to recoup the lost cash.

Low-income regions of the country, such as Mississippi, Tennessee, and
South Carolina, will be particularly hard hit as recipients decide whether
they can afford the rising costs. That is, apparently, a potential electoral
opportunity, according to congressional Democrats-regardless of how
many people will be at risk for physical and financial ruin in the interim.

The message is as simple as it is disastrous: Democrats will do anything to
stay in power, even if it means undermining the needs of their
constituents.
