@AmericanAir it's not like i'm trying to book an extravagant vacation. just trying to get home for a FUNERAL and make it a little more affordable since your flight costs these days are unaffordable to begin with.
@AmericanAir I was able to book a flight just fine, just without any access to any alleged awards i have. i was on hold for 40 minutes before speaking with two people who had no idea about the two benefits i asked about prior to booking.
Our nation's federal employees are more than just numbers on a spreadsheet.
They make sure we have clean water.
They protect us from financial fraud.
They provide healthcare to our communities.
They make our government actually work for people.
Do not forget this.
So @elonmusk says he’s looking for waste and fraud but the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau costs less than $1B/year and has returned $20B and counting to consumers in roughly a decade.
Can we just recognize that 100-day campaigns are what we should always have? Could get rid of that insidious money in politics and the American people wouldn’t have to suffer through year-long campaign commercials. And elected officials could spend more time doing their real jobs
I want to quickly highlight a completely bonkers part of Trump's Project 2025 agenda relating to your salary and faith. You have to see this stuff in text to understand the degree to which these extreme MAGA types want to control your life.
I can’t think about Joe Biden without tearing up a little.
This man ran for president 5 times and lost then enthusiastically backed Obama and played the establishment number two to the greatest leader of his generation.
He wanted to run for president in 2016 but couldn’t because his son Beau died and he was too wracked with grief.
So he comes back in 2020, saves the country from Donald Trump and despite being a career centrist, proceeds to have the most pro-union, pro-working class administration in 80 years, pulls the country out of Covid, pulls us from the economic disaster of Trump into the best economy in the world.
He’s then betrayed by the media class and has to drop out because he’s too old for them. He steps down, for the good of the country, and immediately turns around and full-throatedly endorses the the first Black woman Presidential candidate finalist in U.S. history.
This man.
Mike Johnson spent his legal career fighting against same-sex marriage, adoption and marital benefits. Now he’s brought that fight to Congress.
Proud to vote against him on my 15th anniversary with my wife, Cheryl.
@RepMikeJohnson, enjoy it while it lasts - it won’t be long.
@billmaher It's not pretending to be a biopic/docudrama/re-telling of events film. It is completely & uniquely its own thing, created by artistic license & shared experiences. Your entire argument & inability to grasp the film's concept solidify the "just Ken" male fragility/ego it exposes
@billmaher This is almost comically missing the mark. You're pretending the Barbie movie is a cinematic retelling of the Barbie story and therefore harping on its 'factual inaccuracies'' (the gender make-up of the Mattel Board). A real #ZombieLie is that @billmaher 'makes good points'
