Price of eggs has gone up even in the last few days. Supply issues are causing empty shelves. The Trump economy is back.

Insurance companies know something about climate change if they are pulling out of Florida and most coastal areas. Insurance $$$ don’t lie. www.nytimes.com/interactive/...

I cannot imagine a world without Sesame Street. Grover. Bert. Ernie. Big Bird. Oscar. Snuffleupagus. Cookie Monster. The Count. Harry. Telly. I think for many of us these are characters who exist somewhere between fantasy and reality, as they were there for us daily as we formed our sense of self.

Happy Festivus everyone. Always amazed this crazy episode birthed a real celebration that seems to be enjoyed by so many around the world. So may your feats be strong and your grievances few. Enjoy.

Really unfortunate that we actually hear from polio survivors about how awful polio is and RFK Jr is still being taken seriously.

Show of ✋ if you are not surprised he lied!

If you voted for this guy, you were played.

NBC: “Flu shots fall among kids, hitting their lowest point in years: The U.S. last year hit a grim milestone: the most pediatric flu deaths since before the pandemic.”

Latest #NumbersDay inflation data out this morning. We learned last week that average nominal wages grew 4.0%. Today's inflation data came in at 2.7% over the year. Therefore, average real wages grew 1.3%. November marks 19 months in a row of rising average real wages, increasing living standards.

Fair point. I'm sure the vast majority of doctors and hospital employees are no doubt good people who want to help people and aren't trying to screw anyone over. And honestly, I'm sure the same is true of insurance company & pharmaceutical employees.

Again: absolutely MIND BOGGLING that the Dems didn’t run on a healthcare for all platform.

Jessica: Biden oversaw the best recovery in the G-7 by far and away. Unemployment in this country is lower. He extended the number of people who got access to affordable healthcare, medicaid expansion. We're producing more oil than any other time..

A Trump appointed judge in North Dakota blocked a Biden administration rule that allowed DACA recipients to sign up for health insurance through the Affordable Care Act. www.nbcnews.com/health/healt...

The PRESS Act passed the House unanimously, in January. raskin.house.gov/2024/1/raski...

“I’m not intimidated by a man whose actions on January 6th showed a cowardly disregard for democracy and the rule of law. A man too frightened to serve in the military, and a who requires a strong man like Putin to feel secure.” Amen! adamkinzinger.substack.com/p/bring-it-o...

Let me get this straight? Trump dithers on about the situation in Syria and his concern is what's best for Russia?

PRESIDENT BIDEN: For years, the main backers of Asad have been Iran, Hezbollah, and Russia. All 3 of them are far weaker today than they were when I took office.

Illinois’ universities continue to lead the way. This year, our state’s public universities have the highest enrollment in 8 years! Our higher education institutions are nationally ranked, affordable, and offer a path to a great career - and students are taking note.

Can confirm.

🚨 Breaking: Assad’s government has fallen, and he has fled Damascus. Sending thoughts and prayers to Tulsi Gabbard in this difficult time for her.

Remember, Tulsi Gabbard claimed Assad didn’t use chemical weapons, it was “the rebels.” Her confirmation hearing will be brutal, if she even makes it to there

I imagine Tulsi Gabbard did not expect this part of the movie.

Rep. Richard McCormick: "We're gonna have to have some hard decisions. We're gonna have to bring in the Democrats to talk about Social Security, Medicaid, Medicare. There's hundreds of billions of dollars to be saved, we just have to have the stomach to take those challenges on."

Levin: This guy Austin, what a mess he's made of the United States military with the wokism and the DEA

Do we really want a liar and conspiracy theorist as our next head of HHS? Great 30-minute video. Please repost far and wide.

Please.

Virtually every question today at the WH Press briefing was about the Hunter pardon, as if that is the thing the American people care about most right now. The DC press is so disconnected from the American public and serves them poorly more often than not.

REALLY IMPORTANT UPDATE PLEASE SHARE #ASafeChoice physicians WILL prescribe medication abortion via telehealth FOR WOMEN WHO ANTICIPATE NEEDING THIS MEDICATION. REPEAT: You do NOT need to be currently pregnant to get this prescription. In an era of potentially draconian abortion bans, take note!

From cozying up to dictators like Putin to switching positions and parties as soon as it's politically advantageous, the only quality of Tulsi Gabbard's you can rely on is her selfish thirst for power. That makes her a very dangerous pick to lead our national intelligence.

The ACLU gets *zero* funding from the government. A bit disconcerting that the fellow tasked with reducing government funding doesn't know that.

And it’s official. I’m immensely grateful to the world’s greatest news organization for giving me a platform all these years, and greatly appreciate the moving sendoff 1/ www.nytco.com/press/paul-k...

I understand Donald Trump for what he is a buffoon. Donald Trump wants you to be scared. Rather than being scared, I am proud to be a happy warrior for democracy. We all need to have the courage to not back down. Do not obey!

Please read this from @davidfrum.bsky.social. "It is a very ominous thing if our leading forums for discussion of public affairs are already feeling the chill of intimidation and responding with efforts to appease." www.theatlantic.com/politics/arc...

Today, #KashPatel sent a letter to my counsel @markzaidesq.bsky.social threatening to sue & demanding I retract my MSNBC comments on his unfitness to serve as FBI Director. This follows his threats against media & political opponents, showing how he might act if confirmed. I stand by my statements.
