So, as a OB-GYN, Roger Marshall sent new poor mothers to jail for non-payment for bills as low as $115. But he was willing to stiff a small business for $678. Another small example where in the Republican mind, rules apply to you …but not to them.

The 400 richest Americans are now worth a record $8 trillion. The entire bottom 50% of American households is worth just $4.27 trillion. Read that back. When 400 people control more wealth than half a country’s population, we have a very serious problem.

A reminder that 6 years into this, folks still get long Covid, and that it’s terrible even when temporary, but devastating when permanent. Stay careful out there… vaccinate and avoid.

I ask again, why are national Dems letting Elon "quietly" fund these races? We have two test cases. 2024 when Dems didn't make his money an issue. And 2025 Wisconsin, where they did. Guess which time they won by double digits?

Elon Musk’s America PAC Is Quietly Funding November’s Most Consequential Elections
America PAC’s approach has been unusual: for every dollar it has spent supporting GOP Senate candidates, it has spent almost three dollars attacking Democrats.

The Pentagon, on Trump’s orders, has developed plans to strike Iran’s drone and missile arsenal, energy facilities, and other military sites. The options center on a short, intense campaign of about three days.

Hey, here's a random thought: maybe all of us who are Democrats and progressives should pause attacks on each other for the next three weeks and focus on beating Republicans. I promise our arguments will be so much more interesting in January after a blue tsunami.

Blumenthal: Tether is a crypto company that has a stablecoin known as USDT, and it is the major means of Iran avoiding and evading sanctions. What we’ve also exposed is that Cantor Fitzgerald has a major financial tie. Cantor Fitzgerald was owned by Howard Lutnick. It’s still run by his family.

Do you really think JD Vance would be able to rally 2/3 of the House and Senate to give him the Presidency? It’s more likely that you could get a Senate conviction after an impeachment of the both of them, and that’s… not likely.
