Through the end of August 2026, the House was in session for roughly 383 hours total. That’s an average of about 48 hours per month. Their average monthly floor time is well below the 80-hour monthly threshold the same Congress imposed on Medicaid recipients.

The FBI's new policy allowing bestiality is a perfect example of the Trump regime's ethics: The person committing the crime is actually the victim. "...applicants who have engaged in bestiality means they were victims of bestiality because they were forced to do so..." --Kash Patel 🤮

Thank goodness Republicans are taking us back to the good old days of pollution and smog. They really care about American citizens /s Side note: it's amazing how quickly they corrupted the EPA. Truly stunning.

Why are Republicans socialists? They hate "socialism" so much, but they love to give away money. It's gotta be hard to believe two different things at once. 1. Socialism bad for American citizens 2. Socialism good for the rich and powerful Maybe that's why they're always lying...

Release the Epstein files. And the Zorro Ranch Epstein files as well. This is just another stupid distraction by biblically evil people.

I'm so over of this obsessive stunt queen and his relentless, tiresome gimmicks to get attention. I can't wait until this thirsty nuisance has left the stage . . .

“... I do think the president has set us about to be the most transparent administration in history, and we have done that with flying colors.” -- J D Vance, VP USA You know these people are straight up evil because they can lie like this with a straight face.

Surprised to be re-posting the dictionary, but this is so true. As someone who learned by reading I was often surprised when I found out the pronunciation of words.

Merriam-Webster@merriam-webster.com

macabre = “muh-KAHB” Worcestershire = “WOOSS-ter-sheer” omnipotent = “ahm-NI-puh-tunt” reticent = “RET-uh-sunt” epitome = “ih-PIT-uh-mee” myriad = "MEER-ee-ud" Never make fun of someone if they mispronounce a word. It means they learned it by reading.

So Trump destroys American farming, and now he's gonna import beef to try to temporarily lower the costs instead of helping farmers. Republicans, always with the short-term, bad-outcome solutions.

The US govt now spends more money just on deficit interest than it does to fund the entire US Military or to provide healthcare for seniors. Such fiscal responsibility. Such acumen. Republican governance in action. We are watching it live as it destroys the USA.

Mainstream media calling 38- and 57-year-olds a "Youth Revolt in the Democratic Party" is hilarious. A youth revolt would be voting in 20-30-year-olds. Middle aged people are not youth. But facts no longer matter

“Socialism is a scareword they have hurled at every advance the people have made… socialism is their name for most anything that helps the people. 1952. Truman. This is how stale their desperate fearmongering is. cc: @MarshaBlackburn

Information wants to be free. It's good that the recent AI autonomous hacking incidents are exposing the artificial scarcity capitalism has imposed upon the corpus of human knowledge. Illegal access to information is something humans made up.

On Abdul El-Sayed's victory: Democrats: The DSA is taking over!(*) We must be more centrist! Republicans: Communism and Islam are coming to America! We must be more fascist! Americans: He'll fight for us instead of kneeling to Trump and fascism. *He's not DSA lol

Americans: can't afford food, and choices available are increasingly dangerous and expensive due to Trump Regime's abysmal governance. Republicans: what's REALLY important now are helipads and gold statues.

Another good job, NM!
