Joe Ferguson forever

yes and he's stealing yours. Join the resistance. midterms are less than 2 years away.

the budget passed last night cuts $880 billion from medicaid. if not from benefits, where is it coming from? https://www.yahoo.com/news/tax-cut-chances-rise-house-015757064.html?fr=sycsrp_catchall Nearly half of the spending cuts — $880 billion — would come from programs under the Energy and Commerce Committee, which oversees Medicaid, Obamacare and other health programs. The budget sets targets for spending reductions but does not specify the cuts. Republican leaders have supported Medicaid work requirements and cracking down on improper payments, but those moves would not generate the required savings, making swing-district Republicans nervous about cuts to benefits and payments to providers.

maybe you should wait til prices decrease before you crow. https://www.the-independent.com/news/world/americas/egg-prices-increase-bird-flu-b2705309.html

always an option.

I think most hillbillies and rubes are MAGAs. Are most MAGAs hillbillies and rubes? possibly not but they are certainly well represented. Many deep red areas are heavy beneficiaries of govt programs like Medicaid and welfare. And they vote against their owns interests. to be fair, so do high earning chest beaters. They know D candidates will fund safety net programs at their over represented expense thru progressive taxation that they also agree with. Is that high moral code? It's certainly more enviable than living on the dole and paying no taxes (which interestingly, 47% of the population does). Given the transactional nature of trump's administration, perhaps he could change elections to weigh votes by taxes paid. Then it wouldn't just be musk who benefitted from buying power. maybe it's just me, but the last paragraph of your post comes across as happiness at owning the libs...

So, let's get this right. greenwald is criticizing homoerotic imagery by showing homoerotic imagery...brilliant!

I spoke this morning with a person who provided care at our regional VA before retiring last year. She said they fired 100 employees including clinicians recently. She also said they were greatly understaffed before the cuts, a fact I can attest to from "sharing" patients with them over the years. Maybe your cartoon characters should be pouring beers for the veterans who will be seeing longer waits and diminished care.

This really deserves it's own thread but https://finance.yahoo.com/news/gop-faces-unforgiving-math-after-keeping-tax-cut-plan-alive-151932402.html trump's tax cut plan adds at least 3 trillion to the deficit. DOGE comes no where near covering it.

seems outside of "owning the libs" you have little to celebrate in life.

no, WSJ, NYT, CBS news and the intercept all reported serious errors on the DOGE site, greatly overestimating savings. Is that not pushback?

WSJ isn't really known for being a parasite or for thrashing.

ahem... https://www.yahoo.com/news/doge-deletes-five-biggest-cuts-055036667.html?fr=sycsrp_catchall In another mistake, DOGE counted one USAID contract three times, CBS News reported. In another finding, DOGE claimed it had saved $232 million by canceling an IT contract for the Social Security Administration, The Intercept reported. In reality, the cost-cutting agency only cut a fraction of it: $560,000. The Wall Street Journal found that over one-quarter of the contracts mentioned by DOGE as being cut had already been paid. The largest point of savings allegedly stemmed from cutting an $8 billion contract at Immigration and Customs Enforcement. The contract in question in fact was $8 million, the Times reported.

perhaps you should take it up with "The Hill". not far enough right for you? https://mediabiasfactcheck.com/the-hill/ Read the piece, especially the part about the kgb agents possible motivation and then tell me your criticisms of the arguments...

and then there were 3 (KGB agents) https://thehill.com/opinion/international/5162890-assessing-new-allegations-that-trump-was-recruited-by-the-kgb/

Liar, liar, pants on fire https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/technology/here-s-doge-s-plan-for-social-security/ss-AA1zNvWW?cvid=eaf1107d3df44350a6330d1a4f9a11a8&ei=37#image=7

It’s just strange to continue to use a nasty liquor as a screen name. Perhaps you’re a glutton for punishment. Meanwhile,you and your far right compatriots here continue to harass me over a true story about neo Nazis. That also seems strange given the documentation of contemporaneous and more recent similar cases.

Future monetization only happens if the war ends. Russian comments from your linked article aren’t encouraging. There’s still a great deal to be negotiated and the next scheduled negotiations on the war involve only Russia and the US. We’ll see. Feel however you want. If you’re still drinking bottom shelf bourbon, you likely feel awful. Sad to see you back. It’s unpleasant.

Delusion is defending trump’s statements on Ukraine being the aggressor and believing that peace negotiations with Russia but without Ukraine are appropriate. Trump has chosen Russia over Ukraine and Europe. Finding that disgusting is not virtue signaling, it’s logical. Throwing trusted allies overboard while embracing the world’s least trustworthy leader is illogical and irresponsible. Same as your comments on the Ukrainians murdering Russians to provoke their invasion. Repeating Russian media lies doesn’t make them true.

Yes, this is going to help the working class immensely. It should reduce inflation and housing costs overnight. And with tax breaks for the wealthy, it’s an even better deal for them.

Or look for school kids carrying Nazi propaganda home. This shite never happens… https://www.wfsb.com/2024/10/11/neo-nazi-flyers-found-around-town-passed-first-grader-school-bus/ https://www.tmj4.com/news/waukesha-county/its-disgusting-mukwonago-residents-find-neo-nazi-flyers-in-their-neighborhood

Yes, the irony of progressives being called commies for years by MAGAs, and their orange god jumps into bed with ex KGB almost immediately after becoming president. Then the disciples disseminate Russian propaganda.

Can't see your eyes, just your writing and reasoning.

dude, you were flushed long ago. genetics matter.

murder during war= genocide. It was war. ukraine engaged in neither murder nor genocide despite what war criminal putin said. Altogether, about 14,300 people were killed in the Donbas War, both soldiers and civilians. According to the Office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights, 6,500 were Russian proxy forces, 4,400 were Ukrainian forces, and 3,404 were civilians on both sides of the frontline.[4] The vast majority of civilian deaths were in the first year,[4] and the death rate in the Donbas War was actually falling before the 2022 Russian invasion:[5] in 2019 there were 27 conflict-related civilian deaths, in 2020 there were 26 deaths, and in 2021 there were 25 deaths, over half of them from mines and unexploded ordnance.[4] re relativism, I've been trying to get you magas to think in shades of gray since I started posting. Good to see some ROI. that's mighty nice of him. giving away something he stole. maybe robert kraft can get back his super bowl ring.

https://www.politifact.com/factchecks/2022/feb/25/vladimir-putin/putin-repeats-long-running-claim-genocide-ukraine/ you need to stop listening to ole tuck. word is, vlad has a pee tape on him. Comrade, please cite your evidence for this genocide. here's some more against it During the build-up to its invasion of Ukraine, Russia falsely accused Ukraine of genocide against Russian speakers in the Donbas region. Ukraine fought a war against Russian proxy forces in the Donbas War from 2014 to 2022. Russia's president Vladimir Putin used this claim of genocide to justify the invasion of Ukraine. There is no evidence to support the allegation and it has been widely rejected.[1] Following the invasion, Ukraine brought a case before the International Court of Justice (ICJ) to challenge Russia's accusation. During the proceedings of Ukraine v. Russian Federation, the ICJ said it had found no evidence of genocide. The International Association of Genocide Scholars also rejected Russia's accusation.[2] Further reports by 30 legal and genocide scholars warned that Russia's accusations are part of the "accusation in a mirror" technique, ultimately revealing the Russian incitement to commit genocide against Ukrainians.[3]
