Dems "OH my God, this shut down is horrible and will kill babies. Something needs to be done soon to save lives".
8 Dems in the Senate "We have reached across the aisle to make a compromise to avert this disaster'.
Other Dems "you fucking traitors, you caved for no reason at all".🤷

Of course people like Bernie are livid.
The ‘collegial’ Old Guard who always wants to play nice, caves in again - aren’t most of them retiring or not up for re-election anyway?
Still, at least Johnson will now be forced to call the House back into session, after their extended, enforced 40-day vacation during which they’ve been drawing their 6-figure salaries.
You wanna talk ‘waste, fraud & abuse’? Look no further than the current trump Administration, the Senate, and the House of Representatives. And yes, that includes useless Democrat grifters and wastrels too.

So you think they should have kept the government closed?
How long and for what?.
🤷🏻♀️ Fgs - of course not, and nowhere have I implied that. But I do believe term limits should be a thing!
It’s all been a futile waste of time that should never have happened in the first place, because it was always a given the Republicans would chalk up the ‘win’. All the while, distressed Americans were dragged into the usual Democrat/Republican dick-waving kabuki theatre.
The messaging Democrats should be mercilessly hammering right now is that health care premiums will probably double, or even triple, pretty soon. And Republicans solely own that harsh reality, and so far have offered no workable policy as an alternative.

It was a waste of time..
Who wrote the legislation that allows for some of the healthcaren subsidies to expire?
This could actually be real trouble for the orange one..
This has been all over our news channels today.
Yeah. Hopefully the house committee just dumps all 23,000 documents. Leaking 3 at a time is like leaking none. It looks shady.
But you can't deny the 3 documents leaked, paint a picture that Donny Boy enjoyed some of the talent that was put together by Mr Epstein..

Was anyone in any doubt?
There are numerous pics of him with Maxwell and Epstein, Trump is sleaze personified...it doesn't take a genius to put two and two together.

There are a lot of people who have been in pictures with those two..
Epstein hobknobbed with everyone who was anyone..
But it shouldn't be a surprise to anyone if Trump used the special services..
I'm funny creature though. I always want proof.

It seems for whatever reason, Virginia Giuffre didn't tell the full truth about her not seeing Trump at Epsteins....I wonder why?
This could actually be real trouble for the orange one..
That and 50 year mortgages, H-1B visas, Chinese students, affordability, cost of living and inflation.
I've been super busy recently so haven't kept up with the news. I've looked at Twittter today and it is striking the difference in the time I have been away. There has been a noticeable shift away from Trump / MAGA.

Bro might be cooked.
I'm not sure the 50 year mortgages are going anywhere.
Cost of living and inflation aren't helping the orange team.
But never underestimate team Blue's ability to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory.
I've given up on a meaningful 3rd party but maybe it's still a possibility?

I doubt there's a viable 3rd party option sadly. There seems to a lot of in-fighting within the MAGA movement and the more extreme America First element. It's getting pretty ugly.
Inter-generational mortgages may become a thing though. Maybe not in the immediate term but unless house price affordability gets realistic again some people may see it as a solution.

Don’t start the party without me!
I'll save you a front row seat to the show.
I read an interesting post on Twittter that Charlie Kirk was the main person who kept Trump connected with the concerns of his base. Since his passing there isn't someone who has filled the void so Trump is increasingly seen as out of touch.

To a lesser or greater extent, he’s always been untethered from reality. The older he gets, the more unraveled he becomes.
ICYMI (which I doubt 😉) here’s a thread highlighting some of the recently released Epstein emails.

Seriously, how much of a degenerate does one have to be, for Jeffrey Epstein to say they’re evil? 🤷🏻♀️
“I have met some very bad people. None as bad as Trump. Not one decent cell in his body…so yes, dangerous.”
”I told everyone from day one. Evil beyond belief. Mad.”

Not sure how this all started but it appears there are rumors that Monica wasn't the only one who went down on Bill.🤷
@ MD….Swirling rumours all over social media that it’s for real, and that pictures/video exist. Some of which are in Putin and Bibi’s possession.
🤷🏻♀️ “CRAZY TOWN”

If Trump being a throat goat is what brings him down I might just die laughing.
"I did not have sexual relations with that man, Mr Trump..."
