MTG Resigning: WTF?
Wow I stopped watching the news for 2 hours and MTG resigns. That makes no sense at all. What did the Lyin King do this time, bribery or sick threats. He really does have a way with women. I was just starting to not hate her. This makes no sense because she had to know disagreeing with him was going to make him angry. I think saying she would read the names was a very dangerous thing to say out loud. She should have kept it quiet.

POLL: Epstein damage: How bad?
It matters because we need to hear it all. So many powerful men in business, banking, technology and politics are involved. International royalty and prime ministers. THE LYIN' KING of course doesn’t want his part to come out but he is part of a very large group. They all need to finally pay for what they have done.

POLL: Is the USA ready for a woman president?
“We ain’t ready” I do agree. I don’t think the US is ready to accept a female President. Until the majority of men consider women to be their intellectual equals, it’s not going to happen. We have a way to go. That being said, I do think Kamala Harris actually did win. Unfortunately, it was solely for the reason of trying to keep THE LYIN' KING from winning. She was not necessarily the best candidate but our only choice that was better than the lying king. I do think eventually we will have a woman President just not 2028.

The Lyin' King Thread
I don’t know why I am consistently shocked every time I hear the Piggy Prez be so incredibly disrespectful and condescending to reporters. He is especially awful to the women. He’s behavior yesterday to reporter Mary Bruce made me sick. She was so brave to ask the Saudi Prince about Jamal Kashoggi. THE LYIN' KING unleashed his fury on her. Called insubordinate, disrespectful to his guest, a terrible reporter from a terrible Station and so on. I realize he is becoming completely unhinged but it’s truly hard for me to understand how any of his female voters could ever have considered him anything but a misogynistic narcissist, who absolutely has no respect for women whatsoever. Sorry for the rant. I’m pissed.

Net Outage Emergency Plan
The large-scale Northeast blackout that caused significant multi-day disruptions occurred on August 14, 2003. A cascading failure starting in Ohio knocked out power for about 50 million people across eight U.S. states and parts of Canada, with power taking as long as two days to be fully restored for some areas. It was very scary and isolating. While it only lasted a few days, it was shocking to realize how much we are completely dependent on electrical power. I definitely believe it’s not a matter of if but of when. A cyber attack would be devastating and we need to be as prepared as possible. This was an informative article offering several affordable options for backup power. This is something we always put off. Thanks to this administration the sooner we are prepared the better.

Universal Healthcare
The obvious answer has always been universal healthcare. Everyone should have the same healthcare no matter what financial situation you have. We need to look at all of the countries different types of universal healthcare. See what works and what doesn’t and the best way to fund it all. This way we create the best possible system. Without a doubt a difficult undertaking but it has to be done.

Was the shutdown worth it?
Hi Jimhilltop. Unfortunately, With the possible exception of definite proof of the President’s physical involvement in the Epstein files nothing will change their minds. Their minds are so completely brainwashed after all these years. They want a white wealthy Christian country period. MAGA is based on deep hatred, violence, bigotry and discrimination against anyone who does not fit the mold. That being said normal Republicans who believed the President’s campaign promises are now seeing the truth. We have to win the midterms to survive the next 3 years. We also need to go after the creators of project 2025 and the Heritage foundation. They are the people pulling the strings.

Was the shutdown worth it?
Hi Ben. Welcome to Newbl. Truly I feel for all of the federal workers not getting paid and all of the people not getting food money. It's especially difficult this time of year with the holidays upon us. I feel like we finally had some leverage to work with. It would have at least secured ACA . I fear the whole shutdown was for nothing and people suffered needlessly if we get nothing out of it. Unfortunately, we can only assume at this point the Republicans will renege on their promise, as we have learned their promises are just lies to advance whatever outcome they desire. We definitely have more fighting to do. I believe there will be a huge protest at the Capital on 11/22 thru 11/25. On 11/28 the Blackout begins and ends on 12/5. No Black Friday or Cyber Monday participation. (lol that will be difficult but I will do my part). You are right, our focus now has to be on winning the midterms. It's our only hope at this point. Although, I am hoping for an opening of the Epstein Files Christmas miracle.

Was the shutdown worth it?
Hi Constance. You most definitely are not wrong. The people of this country were willing to give up their paychecks and food money to be able to keep their healthcare. A position we never should have been put in to begin with. We finally had some leverage over the Republicans only to give it up for absolutely nothing.

Was the shutdown worth it?
To be honest I think the majority of people are sick of both parties. With the exception of true MAGA ‘s who are completely hopeless, we have all have had enough of this insanity. Schumer needs to go and we need someone spectacular to run in 2028. Otherwise, we will all be Independents.

Was the shutdown worth it?
I’m so aggravated. After Election Day I felt a sense of hope and optimism. Today disgust. This whole shutdown was a huge waste. People had to suffer for absolutely nothing. It was completely pointless. With our party it’s always one step forward and two steps back. The Republicans now know they can hold the American people hostage till they get what they want. They have just blatantly proved they don’t give a damn about us. Why would we, or how could we believe anything they promise. I can’t think of anything they haven’t lied about. What are your thoughts?

The Lyin' King Thread
Very true. It’s impossible to not be affected. It’s been 10 years of hearing about him even when he wasn’t President. It’s exhausting. I do feel the tide is turning and I can’t wait for the day we all get to see him go down and the circus of an administration go down with him.
