  • We have a president openly selling pardons, violating the Emoluments clause of the Constitution, illegally accepting bribes and gifts from foreign countries, and breaking laws without a second thought. Six Supreme Court justices openly accepting bribes from plaintiffs in cases before them, then ruling in their favor. Those justices completely ignore the Constitution, black-letter law and 250 years of precedent and make shit up to justify decisions that have no possible justification. A HHS chief who believes Youtube over science and is dismantling the very organization he oversees, plus blocking new vaccine development and deployment of existing, effective vaccines. The list goes on and on.

    The GQP has shown that they will do whatever the fuck they want because there are literally no consequences. Some people crying over attacks on free speech isn’t going to make a damn bit of difference to them either.


  • I wish there were some way for the damage to be limited to Maga and the Republicans.

    Our insurance and medical expenses will go from $3.5K this year to at least $11K next, and that’s with few medical problems. We could easily hit $20K if care is actually needed because co-pays, deductibles and max out of pockets have more than doubled and actually quadrupled in some cases. We do not have that kind of money lying around and our spending on other things is going to come to a halt.

    If you think the economy is slowing because of Trump’s tariffs, foreign export collapse, resulting unemployment, Federal employee layoffs and government shutdowns, wait until this explosion of medical costs hits people’s budgets. I won’t be the least bit surprised Trump and his ilk cause another Depression.
