Sitting at lunch today talking about racing back in 2007-2008, realizing there is a whole generation that doesn’t know what racing was like in trucks and oreillys before tapered spacers. Absolutely crazy to me.
I freaking hate restrictor plate racing outside of Daytona and Dega
CBS is reporting that Susie Wiles's old lobbying firm has made $186 million under the Trump administration. Tell me again how food stamps that help a single mother feed her child while she works a full time job are the problem.
We’ve grown hardened to this stuff, but there is something truly fascistic about the Executive branch demanding prosecutors treat a change in Congress as “wartime” and giving notice that it will purge any remaining nonbelievers.
This is a dangerous time for our institutions.
#Maddow: Trump administration has awarded a $40 MILLION contract to a company, for doing Ebola testing in the Democratic Republic of Congo. The company they gave this big new contract to, is a company that last year, made most of its money from waxing salons and airport spas that offer manicures, massages, and something called Chakra Beds. This is a company that has NEVER worked with Ebola at all. It has never worked internationally. It has definitely never worked in Africa, or specifically in the Democratic Republic of Congo. The CEO of that company’s parent company told ProPublica today, that he doesn’t even know if his company can do what they’re about to get paid to do 😂🤦♀️
@royalwatch3@Redistrict But that’s not how it should be. Political gerrymandering is anathema to democracy in a republic. And that “excuse” by SCOTUS as to why gerrymandering is perfectly fine was 100% born out of their politics not the law
SORRY IF THIS OFFENDS DAYCARE OWNERS, BUT I'M DONE.....
My friend pays almost $1,800 a month for daycare.
The woman looking after his daughter earns barely enough to cover her own rent.
So where exactly is all that money going.
Parents are working full time just to afford childcare so they can keep working full time, while the people actually taking care of their children are struggling financially themselves.
And when daycare prices go up, families are told it's because childcare is expensive to provide.
I understand rent, insurance, supplies and operating costs aren't free. But there's something seriously wrong with an industry where parents can barely afford the service and the workers providing it can barely afford to live.
The GOP just keeps doubling down on “y’all need to just suck it up and suffer financially while the billionaires get richer”
How do they think this is a winning strategy?
Former Sen. Rick Santorum blames the midterm results on selfish voters who were unwilling to "suffer financially for a higher good": "Nobody likes to do it, but we all suffer." https://t.co/Ud8BGiHvaZ
@DonMace449772@Rick_Ferri@SenRubenGallego@Jesse_Livermore It’s not redistributing wealth. It’s everyone paying their fair share. Billionaires should have to pay the same % the rest of us pay. They shouldn’t be allowed backdoor workarounds the rest of us don’t get to avoid paying taxes on money they use to fund their lifestyle
@KJF299@secupp Could they also remind viewers that if Trump cared so much about keeping America safe he would have not just ignored the Chinese spy situation.
@secupp Can anchors please remind every guest who says we had to deal with Iran that 18 intelligence agencies said they hadn’t restarted their nuclear program?
@AdamKinzinger Jordan’s whole brand is loyalty tests and performative outrage. After a shellacking, elevating him is basically telling the country “we heard you, and we don’t give a shit.”
Congressman: Pearl Harbor was bombed on December 7th, 1941. How long did it take for the US to have its first major victory in World War II in the Pacific theater?
Pete Hegseth: A number of years.
Congressman: No, it was actually 6 months. It was the Battle of Midway. It was a turning point of World War II.
Changed my mind:
What’s left of the @GOP absolutely deserves to be led by @Jim_Jordan in the House, @StephenM in the WH, and some screwball in the Senate (tbd). They sure don’t deserve a thoughtful leader like @LeaderJohnThune.
Let the clowns burn what’s left down.
Funny how debt gets forgiven when rich people rack it up on yachts, hedge funds, or failed companies. But when regular people go into debt for school, medical bills, or just trying to survive, suddenly it’s called irresponsibility. The hypocrisy is disgusting.
@AFlynn4NC@Bosshawg35 I was replying to a reply to you. You and I are on the same page. Big yes to an amendment requiring a bipartisan redistricting committee with strict rules on how districts can be drawn
@Bosshawg35@Taniel So like a normal person his income grew from investing his salary?
Do you take the same umbrage with C suiters increasing their net worth the same way?
