It is mind boggling how juiceless Congress is.
They couldn't care less about reaching the public they supposedly represent.

The Royals have looked terrible and we always struggle against the Yankees, but I think we win the series in New York.
Big oil lobby won’t allow it. :-)
And we need to spend every dime on punitive stuff and there’s no money left for anything that’s actually helpful.
A tornado in any given place is extremely rare. In Kansas, you can expect a tornado to hit a specific location once every thousand years. And solar panels are hail resistant.
Imagine billionaire ballpark owners needing to pay a million dollars to keep the planet from melting.
1. There isn’t a mismatch. As others have shown, things cost far more than they did a few years ago and more people are defaulting on mortgages, students loans and car payments.
2. People are fed up with being in debt and living paycheck to paycheck despite working hard for decades.
Vought says that 100% of the people kicked off their health insurance from the "Big Beautiful Bill" are either here illegally (CBO says zero of them are) or are defrauding the system or shouldn't have been on in the first place. A profoundly extreme position.
Hampshire College to close permanently after fall 2026 semester Emma McCorkindale
While Hampshire’s case is in some ways unique, it is amazing to think that in a single lifetime - about 70 years - the US founded the greatest public and liberal arts college system in the world and then destroyed it, to build prisons, give tax cuts to the rich, and own the libs
Wage theft is our way of life.
Hey, that’s a start! bsky.app/profile/kyle...
The rehabilitation of the luddites is a beautiful thing
In my experience observing the legislature for countless hours, people tend to not give a shit about something until it affects them directly. I think selfish nature will prevail as soon as gas prices become slightly painful. All other political priorities will become less urgent.
Lettuce is unnecessary because spinach fills all its roles and tastes way better.
Checking in on this again. Do your job, Congress!
Israel has never seen a ceasefire they wouldn’t violate.
Has congress returned to DC to remove the president yet or…
Great. Now remove Trump from office.
Can't tell you how many members of Congress who *at best* had nothing to say when I asked about the Minab girls school attack. There is a profanely cold detachment inside Capitol Hill, a mode completely unrecognizable to common human decency I wish I could properly convey to you.
I don’t consider genocide a distraction.
Honestly I wake up every morning with that expectation.
Are you headed into the office or not?
Sorry if I seem a little distracted at work today. The president just threatened to murder a hundred million men, women, and children.
the world won’t end, i know that. you and i won’t die. even if the worst happened, we’re not going to die today and the worst won’t happen. but this is a kind of worst. even if he does nothing, there are lines that we don’t uncross. a certain kind of world order has already died today.
sorry if this seems harsh but I don't think the president should be allowed to post "a whole civilization will die tonight" and still be president
If you’ve never called your congressional reps before, do it right now.
We’re now jailing journalists for reporting on the government. Which part of democracy is this again?
the gas station is OUT of regular gas!!! wtf this has never happened before, they only have super but no regular and no diesel lmao
Are you talking to your colleagues about impeachment and other remedies to stop this?
The problem with Democrats in congress is that they support what the president is doing. They just don’t like the way he talks about it.
