Apparently a lot more people than Abbott went to Asia. On the taxpayer dime.

Ah, FB memories serving up some winners. This is what an itemized $1,330,000 NICU hospital bill looks like (only 96 days to get there). The apple is there for scale. Here’s why I share it. Too many ppl don’t know abt lifetime caps and pre-existing bans. Bc the STILL-VULNERABLE ACA banned them.

"What the report finds is that Biden held on to 94% of the people who said they would support him before the debate. For Trump, 86% of people who said they would support him before the debate said they would do so after the debate."

I used to think that way. Ranked voting encourages moderation, which I thought was normal - in mid 20th century terms. But now one side is “how about addressing climate change” and the other is “rape the planet harder!”, what is the center between that? Now I lean to the RW playbook./1

Seriously. I'm at a hospital every three weeks and I'm still amazed that people don't wear masks THERE. Even the nurses are inconsistent.

Honestly, I think it comes in waves. The 2028 primaries are going to be a mad house - and if the left of the party doesn't put at least 2 people on the stage - then I don't know what to tell you. Right now, everyone I see with a chance is - at best - center.

Exactly. The only way to even have a chance to keep moving left is to vote Democratic and then work like hell to push them to the left. A Trump victory will basically send the Democratic party to the right. Count on it.

Like...I go in and read the judges' backgrounds, who appointed them, the backgrounds of every single school board member, along with the water district. YOU HAD ALL BETTER BE FUCKING DEMOCRATS, IF YOU WANT MY VOTE.

Yes, this is exactly right. Plus, they will do the math that the "country has to be more right-leaning, otherwise why did Trump win. So we have to move further to the right"...

The media already has the DEMS IN DISARRAY articles written for when Biden steps down. WHY ARE YOU RUINING THIS FOR THE MEDIA??

I'm not kidding. Chapter 14 of Project 2025 (see: "Agenda 47") is the part of their plan where they'd cut back medical services to the point where every poor sick & disabled person will, quite simply, not be able to afford to stay alive. This could be your grandmother, your uncle, your cousin. You.

Hey! Remember Republicans saying "Obamacare will make death panels to kill your grandma!"? Then you should probably go check out chapter 14 of the Project 2025 manifesto. Because every Conservative/Republican accusation is a confession.

The slow motion coup against the American people continues. It won't stop until the coup plotters are dealt with the way coup plotters traditionally are, or until they win.

FFS The candidate, no candidate, is your personal Jesus. Grow up. Have the courage of conviction for your own self to get out of bed, off the couch, penciled into your schedule to gotv and vote. We deserve the self-defeat we serve up to ourselves.
