Let’s talk about Medicare for All. What would it mean for the individual American? ⬇ The day you’re born you get a card that gives you health insurance with no premium, co-pay, or deductible. Doesn’t matter if you get a job, lose a job, turn 26 or 65, get married or divorced — it's there for you.

Consider this for a moment: Trump would never allow such trash to occur at any of his golf courses. However, he’s doing it at the White House because he disregards the property of the people. A fucking senior citizen has an 80th birthday party and it cost taxpayers $80 million. It’s disgusting.

Whether it's Republicans lying about the LA mayor election, or lying about screwworm, or using AI to lie about James Talarico, the Democratic instinct is to correct the record, condemn the attack and move on. It should be to weave a story about the opposition's putrid, morally corrosive dishonesty.

Reading between the lines. JD Vance and his billionaire handler, Peter Thiel, are strategically leaking damaging information about Trump to the press. Expect Vance and Thiel to make their move after the midterm Republican wipeout.. A palace coup appears to be Vance’s only chance to be President.

This fight isn't over. We need law, not promises. And remember: Trump's settlement forces the IRS (that he controls) to drop ALL audits of Trump, his family and businesses. Dropping one of those audits could save Trump $100 MILLION. I have a bill to stop this corruption.

The low-hanging fruit is Blanche and maybe half a dozen others involved with the "fund." You campaign on putting them in prison, no one will stop you. "Intent to defraud," "two billion of your money to insurrectionists, crooks..." No one dares. That's how you get people used to the idea.

I wish we would stop using the word conservative for U.S. Republicans. There’s nothing conservative about starting new wars, or funding an untrained army of ICE agents making it among the twenty most highly funded military forces in the world, or raiding county clerks’ offices or public libraries.

Donald Trump couldn’t be bothered to show up at Dover to the dignified transfer of 26 year-old Sgt. Benjamin Pennington of Kentucky who died because of his war in Iran. McSlurry’s too busy hanging out with House Republicans at his golf club in Florida. He sent JD Vance instead.

There are a lot of posts out there with the close-up visual of Markwayne Mullin on January 6, but this is a better perspective. He’s not protecting others; he’s protecting himself and hiding. You can see plenty of people at the entry door, ready to take on the insurrectionists, but not Markwayne.
