people were telling me in December, ‘You know, you’re overreacting.’
One day after saying this, the former speaker of the Minnesota house is gunned down by a pro-Trump extremist.

This will cause gas prices to increase, which is exactly what Russia wants. Of course, with both Russian and Iranian gas production under attack, I wonder which group that recently increased production will benefit? Well, for a while, until mines start appearing in the straight of Hormuz.
Random vote of no confidence motion against Bibi is domino-ing into a global energy crisis.
Let’s hope Hogg doesn’t switch to Musk’s new party.
If they cut $1 trillion from going to Medicare Advantage programs upcoding things, the Medicare Advantage people won’t go “ah, shucks, they caught us. Guess our years of grifting are over.” The Medicare Advantage programs will just pass that on to the consumer, which will cause some people to drop it, causing the prices to go even higher.
Soon we will see a two-tier medical system for old people: Rich old people and not rich old people, and the pressure for medicare to cover more things will grow.
A lot of things could have cost Harris the election. If you have 4 people of varying strengths try to lift (with varying effort) a couch and fail to move it, do you blame the strongest person? The person that contributed the least lift? The person whose effort is much smaller that what they could lift? All four equally? The person who picked the people to move the couch?
Depending on how you parse the data, you could come to opposite conclusions (Harris lost because she wasn’t pro-Israel enough! Harris lost because she was to much pro-genocide!)
What people who want to win next time need to do is look at their part of the failure (how do we get more youth to vote; how do we bring out the base; how do we secure the center; how do we strike back against lies; how do we stop the flow of foreign money…) and fix it for next time so that there are many ways the liberal candidate can win. THEN we can debate about WHICH candidate that should be.
Eh, with USAID gone and SNAP being gutted, a lot of the farmers are going to go bankrupt. With the Medicaid cuts, a lot of the rural hospitals (the main employers in rural areas) are going to go bankrupt. And if the “big beautiful bill” doesn’t pass, all social security and medicare payments will stop until something passes. A lot of bad things will happen to the “wrong rural people”.
Also, Trump has another law he can use to make tariffs with, and it will be another 6 months before the court rules on that.
Why did you fire your aids, Hegseth?
Because they leaked the batshit insane plan to invade Panama.
How did you figure that out?
I wiretaped them through the NSA.
That’s illegal Hegseth!
Ok, I didn’t wiretap them. I just didn’t like them. They didn’t get along with my cheif of staff.
Then just say that! You have the power to fire people you don’t like without both confirming a leak and admitting to a federal crime!
Well, to be fair, I was also drunk…
Didn’t a house democrat just recently die? Wouldn’t that have made it 215-215 if he was still alive?
comes out there’s a tape of 20 9 years old peeing on him while he wears an Obama mask;
The Russians had that over him in 2016. Between then and now, AI videos have been invented and Trump was convicted of a crime without any negative effects. Blackmail doesn’t work on him anymore, just bribery.
We want to stand up to Trump’s stock manipulation: but Nacy Pelosi keeps blocking bills making congressional insider trading illegal.
We want to stand up to Trump’s support for multiple genocidal dictators, but Chuck Schumer keeps pushing for more weapons to Israel.
We want to make majauana legal, but Kamala Harris keeps touting how she had sent majauana users to jail.
In short, we want democratic leaders who stand for democratic values or at least who don’t actively push policies counter to them.
Is this in the “big beautiful budget bill?” If not, I don’t see it passing the senate filibuster.
calling the report “a one-source hit piece.”
That source: Fetterman.
Lincoln, NE had democrats win big as well. Omaha was always the swing area, and the rest of Nebraska is dark red.
Drug companies: Raises prices on all developed countries
When does hurricane season start?
If something like that can be easily be undone, then either it wasn’t anything or the people who made it didn’t try very hard to secure it.
Let’s make a trade, Republicans… we will help you oust McConnell if you help us oust Fetterman. Both do not belong in the senate.
Anti-iraq war protesters killed John Kerry’s presidential bid and led to 4 more years of Bush. Did that mean the democrats ran away from the issue and everyone supported the Iraq War?
No, we changed leadership and polling so much so that we finally got out of the war. The option shifted so hard that in 2015 the only republican in a huge field of candidates that said the Iraq war was a failure won the primary, the whitehouse, and (eventually after he left) got us finally out of Afghanistan. (Yes I know that was Biden, but was odd that Obama didn’t do it).
With AOC at the helm, they can no longer tar and feather Bernie supporters as anti-women because we didn’t like Hillary or Harris.
Netanyahu’s government faced a vote of no confidence. A day later, his planes were in the air bombing Iran.
