Tammy Bruce: "These are the kinds of decisions that we have with the one guiding hand in this nation, which is President Trump ... ultimately what the president decides and what America does is going to be best for America, and then of course ultimately best for the world."

Judas got 30 pieces of silver but these guys are willing to sell out their constituents for a bit of flattery and some signed merch.

I don't know how you can look at yourself in the mirror after so willingly and so publicly humiliating yourself like this. I don't care what money it brings you. I don't care what power it brings you. I'm not exaggerating when I say that I would prefer actual death to such personal debasement.

When you say “fully” you are presuming a standard of maleness or femaleness that is an artificial social/cultural construct. That standard doesn’t exist but that proves my point not yours.

BLITZER: The CBO projects 12 million more people will be uninsured because of this legislation. Did the president mislead the American public about not cutting Medicaid?
McCLAIN: I don't think so. If you're one of the most vulnerable and need Medicaid, you should be extremely excited

I understand the commercial imperatives here but… these companies are already creating an entire lost generation of entry-level workers who aren’t being trained because LLMs are doing that work, and I don’t know where they think the senior management is going to come from if they keep doing that.

BLITZER: Are Republicans getting behind this bill now because of pressure from President Trump or because it's best for Americans?

Reminder: after refusing to expand Medicaid, @GovBillLee & TN Republicans manipulated Medicaid💰into “shared savings” to steer it away from helping the elderly, pregnant women, etc into other things.

I’d say 7-yo me making all of my relatives take me to see Star Wars separately and then the other 9 would probably be various midnight showings of The Rocky Horror Picture Show at the 8th Street Playhouse between ages 14 and 17.

Politics has “been turned around into something that is destroying us,” Professor Millies told me. “The signs on the horizon are extremely worrying, all the more because we may well be so entertained by what’s happening that we’ll laugh and applaud the whole way down.”

I've seen ppl say "well the cuts dont kick in until 2027, so Ds wont be able to use them as a midterm attack" which a) misunderstands how businesses manage finances & b) misunderstands how political attacks work. All closures will now be attributed to this bill, whether directly correlated or not
