Richard Kirsch from the Roosevelt Institute untangles the enormous mess that is the Affordable Care Act, which will not only not remediate the problems of some of the poor who can't afford health care, it will cost them more money -- and still leave them uninsured! Look, there were some improvements in this bill (especially if you're in the middle class) but on the whole, this is going to be an enormous clusterfuck for the working poor.

  • Kamala Harris Fires Up Crowd: 'Kick That F*cking Door Down!'
    The Daily Dot, Monday - 05/13/2024 - 02:05 PM

    Vice President Kamala Harris didn't hold back as she fired up the crowd at the Asian-Pacific American Institute for Congressional Studies on Monday with a well-placed F-bomb. Harris was talking about breaking barriers; she would know little about that as she became our country's first woman Vice President. She was also the first Black American and South Asian American to be elected to that position, so she broke a few glass ceilings.

    The Daily Dot, Monday - 05/13/2024 - 01:06 PM

    Sen. JD Vance became Trump's public attack dog and assailed the judge's daughter today. Diminished Don is sending out his flunkies, since he faces jail if he violates the gag order again. Senators JD Vance and Tommy Tuberville are pretending they are showing up "just as friends" at Trump's trial; instead, they are his mouthpieces to circumvent the gag order. JD VANCE: First of all, Michael Cohen is the prosecution's star witness.

During a Sunday discussion on Fox News, trial attorney Bryan Rotella explained how Trump's defense team would attack Cohen when he takes the stand this week. "They're going to say you can't trust anything that this guy has said," he pointed out.

  • JD Vance Ignores That Time Trump Had Dinner With A Neo-Nazi
    The Daily Dot, Monday - 05/13/2024 - 10:25 AM

    CNN host Dana Bash pushed back on JD Vance's claims that Trump isn't anti-Semitic, but a huge supporter of Israel when she reminded him of the infamous Nick Fuentes dinner at Mar-A-Lago. Vance was going on and on about Trump's support for Israel, but it is only in proportion to any Jewish person that supports his candidacy. The Ohio Senator's response to Bash's remarks was to do the same thing that all MAGAts do when something happens that makes Trump look bad.
