Sununu just told Katy Tur “Even Susan Collins - beloved on both sides of the aisle - is facing headwinds in the midterms.” Collins, recipient of bipartisan love? This is why a Republican on MSNOW is a rare occurrence: they cannot tell even an approximation of the truth. @msnowreports.bsky.social

Okay, imagine this: another one of these merde-caked brownnosers woke up, got out of bed, looked in the mirror, and grinned: "I'm gonna go in there today and make sure nobody stops my man from taking a wrecking ball to that marble-ensconced woke festival. Just think of the points I'll score!"

It's the pale, bland mask of that artificial cornpone from Louisiana that sticks in my craw. He never met a MAGA moment that he couldn't co-exploit. He thought this was the photo op of the year. May this debacle follow him the rest of his small f*cking life.

On this day in 1994, the Clinton administration's heathcare reform plan was declared "dead" by Congress. Over 30 years later, the US is still the only industrialized country without universal healthcare. This should be a national outrage.

I've been saying this for months. Ask sudents of Putinism - power heavily centralized around a supreme leader, relying on one-man rule; the state overseeing major economic sectors (such as oil and gas) while reining in independent oligarchs in exchange for economic stability and public payouts.
