Removing the subsidies is already law.  Having a majority in Congress wouldn't be enough to override a veto.  (But it would be enough to force the vote and the veto.) 

My point is get the majority in the House/Senate and then you can (hopefully) stymie the last two years of Trump's reign of terror and not allow him a third term situation or do more irreparable harm to the country. Elect Dem POTUS in '28 and go scorched earth on the MAGAts who are left. '27 and '28 would likely be painful years but there'd be light at the end of the tunnel. If we lose '26, it's game over, man. Game over.

The guy you signed a contract with to deliver your new Buick doesn't deliver the car because he's afraid of getting sued.  He delivers it because....that's just what you do when you make a deal to deliver a car.

. . . .

Can you put this in more scholarly terms for me?  What if I had a contract for a hand free from scarring, but, in the end, I received a hairy hand?  See Tits v. McGee.

that news was surpassed this afternoon

NBC News: Democrats make a new offer to end the shutdown, but Republicans aren't buying it

It seems like the best offer Democrats could, or would, make and that Schumer knew Republicans wouldn't go along.

Yep.  The GQP position on the Dems' ask is this: "we'll commit to think about it later."

Quote

Senate Majority Leader John Thune, R-S.D., called the Democratic offer a "nonstarter."

"The Obamacare extension is the negotiation. That's what we're going to negotiate once the government opens up. ... We need to vote to open the government — and there is a proposal out there to do that — and then we can have this whole conversation about health care," he said.

Fuck....ALL the way off with that shit.

"Give me your car.  After that, then I'll consider negotiating with you about whether I'll pay you anything.  And obviously, you shouldn't pay ANY attention to the fact that every time this dynamic between us has come up in the past, I have totally fucked you and not agreed to do anything.'

Yeah....

Trump is on a plane right now, heading to Mar-a-Lago, while flights are being canceled for the rest of us and air traffic controllers just got a $0.00 paycheck.

Predictable, but still amazing.

How stupid do you have to be to not get that this guy doesn't give a tenth of a shit about you?

Apparently, precisely as stupid as at least 40% of Americans.  A level of stupidity that, for the sake of convenience, the rest of the world just calls "American."

When you spend your life searching and grasping for someone to give you a shred of hope about improving your life, you are willing to overlook everything they say and do, because they make you feel better about yourself, no matter how terrible your life still is.

At this rate he may finally hoist his own petard before the midterms


this is the most Twitter brained rabbit hole shit I’ve ever seen in politics. If the Dems had any national leaders worth a shit they would be running commercials about SNAP benefit cuts and ACA premiums going up 100% during every live sporting events and just quoting Trump and co.

I told some people this week from New Zealand that if they want to understand how stupid 78 million Americans are to think of the dumbest person they know. I told them to now multiply the stupidity of that person times 10 and then also throw in that people living under rocks are smarter than those 78 million.

Does AF1 get its own ATCs?  Or could some rogue pissed off broke ass ATC do the world a favor?
