Former Speaker Nancy Pelosi underwent a successful hip replacement in Germany after falling down a set of stairs during a trip to Luxembourg, a spokesperson said on Saturday. Even Pelosi waits until she is out of the country to have surgery. No joke, rehab is serious for this. She should retire.

Some will declare fealty publicly. Some privately. Make no mistake, they will all protect their own interests before defending the country that made them rich.

This Dylan devotee (an understatement, trust me) went to the world premiere of A Complete Unknown last night, and I'm here to tell you Timothée Chalamet was extraordinary. The movie was like a time machine. You're there watching Bob Dylan happen.

So fascinating to see all the centrist accounts do everything to ignore the healthcare story and continue to obsess over every piece of crap that rolls out of donold’s mouth instead 👄💩

Historically, it seems pretty common that the billionaire class instigates a culture war to avoid a class war. But with 14 billionaires and counting in Trump’s administration, it’s going to be difficult to ignore.

This seems pretty compelling. I can't remember Nobel Laureates ever writing like this in opposition to a candidate to lead HHS before.

Funny, because his hyper-masculine religion is grooming a whole generation of child-molesting pastors.

When they talk about privatizing Veterans’ care and Medicare, they mean allowing companies to provide healthcare for a profit. But how do companies make those profits? By *denying* care to many who need it. Don’t get fooled by the “privatization” label. It means “for profit” and YOU are the cost.

Amid the backdrop that more than a dozen members of Trump's Cabinet are billionaires, a reminder that this is what happened to income inequality in this country once the tax rate for top earners was slashed after 1980. Trickle down does not work and top earners' priority is themselves.

Joe Walsh with zero f*cks to give on msnbc- "Let's cut to the chase. Trump doesn't give a shit that Pete Hegseth has a history of treating women like shit because that's what Donald Trump has done. Trump doesn't care that Hegseth is an abuser and harasser of women bcuz that's what Trump has been."

After I moved to Canada a couple of years ago I realized that I was no longer constantly running a massive stress routine in the background of my mind worrying about health care and guns. It was weirdly noticeable only when it stopped.
