Obamacare passed when I was 24, and I almost broke down in tears when I found out I could stay on my parent’s healthcare plan, after I was laid off from my job.

It’s the hypocrisy of it all. She’s against ACA but admits that she’s covered by her parents’ insurance because of ACA. Well, she could get a freaking job with insurance and pay for her own damn health care, but she knows the first rule of Republican lawmaking is, “I got mine, fuck everyone else.”
They also don’t know that what they’re benefitting from is thanks to the ACA. Like Tomi here. I guarantee you she has no clue that before the ACA, 24-year-olds wouldn’t have been allowed to be on their parents’ insurance. And I guarantee you that plenty of people don’t realize that their subsidies or free birth…
That is what kills me about all the demonizing of the left. They like our ideas but because a black man did it and we don’t want white supremacy they hate us.
That right there is trumps base in a nut-shell. Too stupid to know they are shooting themselves in the foot.
And she got her ass handed to her by J.K. Rowling earlier this week.
It’s like when you ask these ass clowns how they feel about the Affordable Care Act, a lot of them support it. They have no idea it’s the same as Obamacare.
It’s like Jewish people watching Schindlers list. You shouldn’t have to watch this shit because you know it. These films are made not for you, but to hopefully reach wypipo like me. Just like the HBO series. You don’t need to be taught about the things you experience on a daily basis. But we definitely need to see…
I’ll give Bigelow a “C” for effort in taking on a topic whose relevance resonates not only because of the 50th anniversary of the incident, but because this shit is still happening today. Our (America’s) continued failure to learn from history is why this story needs to reach as many eyes and ears as possible. Sure,…
There was a really great article on Cracked yesterday about trans people in the military, and their stories were largely positive. It’s great to see current members of the military are being supportive of their trans brothers and sisters. I hope it’s a consequence of representation in media, schools, the workplace,…
Not really. Mom, sister, daughter...they’re different. They’re real women, not whores like other women.
The fact that many at the Pentagon were genuinely worried he was announcing war/nuclear strike on North Korea between the first two tweets was telling to me. They genuinely think he’s that bonkers and I think that will undermine him hugely.
That’s the thing that really frosts my cookies. The kind of bullshit law-and-order-war-on-drugs crap that Trump worships and Sessions promulgates is bad for civilians and cops.
My entire empire’s backbone is led by 2 of the strongest people I know and they happen to be women, my mother and sister.
Oh I’m right there with you. And it’s not just conspiracy theory bullshit either. He’s so obviously trying to position himself to not only win the next election, but to consolidate his power within his family...and he actively seeks out organizations and governments with similar agendas. He hates the freedom of the…
He probably shouldn’t have fucked up his relationship with the military with his trans service twitter ban if that was the case, I’d think?
If you get any joy out of advocating police violence you should not be president.
Except what you’re forgetting/ignoring is that the “hissy fit” the GOP threw was actually the Tea Party coming to power through unified grass roots votes, and pushing moderate Republicans out the door. Voters *rewarded* the GOP/far right for being obstructionists; Dems don’t have that same kind of voter support or…
Driving the god damn wedge is what got us, as a nation, into this mess in the first place. Where I disagree with you is the theory that wanting to work with the Republicans somehow absolves them of being shitty. It doesn’t and we will remember. In the meantime, shit needs to get done and continued polarization…
