A man invites a couple of Jehovah Witnesses in on a hot summer day.

He asks, "so, what would you boys like to talk about?"

The two JWs look at each other, puzzled. One answers, "Don't know. We've never gotten this far before."

They always accuse the Democrats of what they are going to do.
They do it to "normalize" the abnormal and immoral.
They do it so they can point at the non-existent example of the Democrats doing it.
They point so they can say they'r'e no different than the Democrats.

All of it is a lie.
Every last part.

Hegseth Official Told Military Officer President Doesn’t ‘Want to Stand Next to a Black Female Officer’ in Promotions Rift: Report

Getting promoted in the US military is not easy whatsoever and making general is difficult and rare.

After years of dedicating their lives and careers for the country, these four individuals got royally screwed over by racist pigs.

How will kicking out the insidious Trumpf junta on 20 Jan 2029 fix the lives and careers of these four victims, other Soldiers of Color cashiered out, the FBI agents and USIC personnel kicked out, or all of the people who died because of the BBB and the destruction of USAID?

Melania Trump Floats Replacing Teachers with Robots

The oligarchs and the Republicans want to de-humanize the masses to make population control mechanisms easier.

RFK Jr wants AI holograms to treat poor people in rural hospitals and now Melanoma wants robots to teach our children.

All of these devices will be programmed with the same nuanced mantras and subliminal or overt messages nationwide:

"Vaccines are bad for you."

"Pay your taxes on time."

"ICE is helping the country."

"The minorities don't make good pilots."

"The Israelis are our friends."

"Don't wear a mask."

"Vladimir Putin is OK."

"Be a good citizen."

"Homosexuality is treatable."

"Muslims eat dogs."

"Rich people provide jobs for us."

DoJ Admits Gov Has No Evidence in J Powell Investigation

If you believe that the mess our healthcare system is in is the fault of the Republicans, you have a very simplistic view of the issues involved. There are many competing interests, the entire political class is just one.

#26 | Posted by visitor_

Literally no one thinks that. As I stated above, a single Independent is responsible for us not already having a public option.

While the GOP is not solely responsible, I hope you would at least acknowledge the Party's intransigence on the issue.
They currently hold majorities in both houses of Congress as well as the the White House yet they've offered no alternative to the current system other than raising costs on 22 million Americans by stripping ACA subsidies. It's been more than a decade since Donald Trump promised to deliver a comprehensive plan to replace ACA. It was in January of 2016 when Trump said his plan would provide "insurance for everybody" and "much lower deductibles" was "very much formulated down to the final strokes" and would be announced right after his Secretary of HHS received confirmation. That plan was never introduced and Republicans have spent the past decade doing next to do nothing on the issue.
Trump lied and the GOP has sat on their hands.

It appears they are launching a criminal probe for no other reason than Powell disagrees with Trump on lowering interest rates.

DoJ Settlement: Taxpayers will Pay Trump Adviser Michael Flynn $1.25 Million

#8. It was a perjury trap, moron. He wasn't even being 8nvestigsted for a crime. He was set up and then subjected to lawfare.

Then why did he plead guilty? Twice. If what you postulate is true then take it to trial. Truth. Justice. And the American way.

But he didn't. Instead, he sat down with his lawyers and examined line by line a long and detailed plea agreement. It explained in detail what he was charged with, the facts he admitted true that support his beyond a reasonable doubt guilt and that his plea and signature is without intimidation or coercion. Then he admitted in open court, twice, a few months apart that he voluntarily signed the agreement and that he is guilty as charged. Then the Buffoon gave him a pardon.

Then he sued for wrongful prosecution. Then the district and appellate court said, you gotta be kidding, you didn't fight it, plead guilty and the pardon is irrelevant. The Supreme court ducks the issues and rule proceduraly, standing.

So, in the face of a strong defense against the case the Buffoon caves. It cost us 1.25M. Why?

That is inevitable, nothing can be done to prevent that. that ship has sailed.

So, how is the war going?

Well, if you are like me you are on a roller coaster of emotion, negotiations going well! Negotiations not happening! Gift from Iran?! Irreconcilable conditions on 2 sides without Israel even mention!
Peace next week or the week after. Troops rushing to the theater. Iran setting up a toll system. America is blowing up ----! AMERICA! --------!

For someone following closely like myself, there seems to be a sort of settling in of the conflict. America bombs Iran. Iran sends missiles out. Iran controlling traffic in strait. Israel committing war crimes. Not just a pattern but a realignment of reality where it just seems like the war and world is becoming something new and something lasting like a new normal. That feeling came slower in 2003 and 2004 when the Iraq war went sideways. The current war seems like it will be here for a while. Which is odd because so many pundits talk like it will be over by the tax day.

I remind people Russia and Ukraine have been having negotiations for years. Despite Piggy's insane and contradictory pronouncements, the negotiations do not seem to be bearing fruit.

Piggy did push back the war on Iran's power plants to April 6, probably because as anyone following developments that will be around when the 2 Marine units will arrive on station and be ready for action.

So, yeah, cards look like escalation.

Kelly said he would usually quash the conversation by saying "nothing (Hitler) did, you could argue, was good," but that Trump would occasionally bring up the topic again.

In his interview with The Atlantic, Kelly recalled that when Trump raised the idea of needing "German generals," Kelly would ask if he meant "Bismarck's generals," referring to Otto von Bismarck, the former chancellor of the German Reich who oversaw the unification of Germany.

"Surely you can't mean Hitler's generals," Kelly recalled asking Trump. To which the former president responded, "Yeah, yeah, Hitler's generals."

I was recording at the Record Plant studio complex in L.A. many years ago. Out of the studio next to the one I was working in walks Paul McCartney, who invited me in to listen to a track he was working on. Cool guy.

Flash forward to the Super Bowl pregame show in 2005. All of the sudden, I leaned to looked closer at the TV. "What the heck?!" There on stage was a buddy of mine playing with Paul. I emailed him a few days later and asked how that came about (he was flying to their base in Paris on a Gulfstream :-)

Cool story. That show was his AUDITION. He'd never rehearsed with Paul.

He told me he'd woodshedded for two months after being told he'd have an audition (thanks to his friendship with Abraham Laborial, Jr, Paul's incredible drummer with whom he'd been doing low paying pickup gigs with in Europe before Abe got the gig), learning every part on guitar, bass, and background vocals, not knowing the audition was going to be the SB party.

"I was sure that after the gig Paul would clap me on the back and say, "nice to meet you," he said, and that would be that. Paul did get up after dinner, clap me on the back, and say, "great job! We'll see you at rehearsals." Still with Paul after 20+ years. I flew up to Detroit for a Paul gig several years ago. Gotta tell ya, he's is one of the nicest people you could ever meet.

My friend went from being a semi-poor 50-ish musician to building a beachfront house in Santa Monica a few years ago. Couldn't have happened to a better guy.

"THAT's who'd suddenly turn against the idea, and join a coordinated effort among a whole bunch of wealthy interests: Insurance, Pharma, Hospitals, etc."

That would be me. I might be the only person here who has been subject to a government-operated healthcare system.

I don't remember it being that bad before COVID, but from spring of 2020 until I retired in August of 2023, the US military healthcare service was almost useless. Appointments for non-flyers were non-existent. You would just go to the ER at Landstuhl Regional Medical Center. Even for me as a flyer, appointments had to be made weeks in advance.

Then I retired, getting a private plan through Cigna Global. On the Tuesday after I retired, I called the general provider I had chosen. They asked if I could come in Thursday. I started laughing because it seemed so crazy.

I'm not against a government plan for those who want it, any more than I am against people who want to fly Spirit Air because it is cheap. But don't expect First Class service unless you're willing to pay first class prices. And that seems to be a big rub. That the quality and timeliness of the person buying the first-class ticket should be the same as that of the person buying the Spirit Air ticket.

No one ever mentions that Mueller was BARRED from investigating trump's financial ties to russia.

And I've never heard an innocent explanation for why trump chose russian asset Paul Manafort as his campaign manager.

Sigh. For someone turning 65. Medicare part B 202.90 per month per person. Supplemental insurance 190.49 per month per person. So for a couple around 10,000 per year before co-pays, deductible and max out of pocket. We need to reduce the cost, not just shift them to third and fourth party payers.

Might want to check your abacus on that yearly amount, and your information on what Medicare is all about.

And unless you're dopey enough to fall for a Medicare Advantage plan, there's nothing after the deductible.

My wife's been on Medicare since March 2020, and I've been handling her Medicare. She's had plenty of medical care and a lot of pricey stuff done. I'm on Medicare also, as of last year.

The only times she's been charged anything beyond the deductible was twice, from the same chiropractor's office. It was BS, and we left the practice.

Right now, she's on a zero-premium drug plan and her pharmacy costs are minimal.

Anyone with an ounce of integrity or dignity would STFU at this point.

You voted for this mess we're in, dumbf*&^. Anyone with an ounce of integrity or dignity would STFU at this point.

And you wonder why you're treated like the piece of s*&^ you are...

The disaster you voted in to office is directly, DIRECTLY, responsible for the mess we're in. Biden was dealing with circumstances out of his control.

If you can't understand the difference, just STFU and admit you have no seat at this table with the adults.

"Note this proposal isn't coming from any elected democrats. They're too cowardly."

Don't get confused. People like the idea of Medicare For All.

The reality would be very different: For full-time workers, Medicare falls around the 70th percentile in comparison to other plans. That means 30% would have to take a lesser plan than they currently have.

And what 30% is that? The ones paid the most. Doctors, Lawyers, Engineers, Executives.

THAT's who'd suddenly turn against the idea, and join a coordinated effort among a whole bunch of wealthy interests: Insurance, Pharma, Hospitals, etc.

The DOJ was hyper aggressive in its prosecution of J6 offenders. I guess because none got the death sentence it wasn't enough to satiate the left.

Now, let's see the uninsured Trumpy types vote against their own interests, vote in people who would never allow this to happen, and remain uninsured. And stupid.

Iraq Vows to 'not remain silent' after Airstrike Kills Iraqi Troops

"Medicare for All," the proposed single-payer national health care system that would replace private health insurance, proved to be a politically testy item during the 2024 election. Former Vice President Kamala Harris left it off her agenda when she became the Democratic nominee for president"

And then she lost.

But don't learn any lessons Dems.

Note this proposal isn't coming from any elected democrats. They're too cowardly.
