I sure hope they're not going to cave on the ACA. 😡

They don't want you to have healthcare
They don't want you to have food
They don't want you to live here
Puts me in a mood

If you're not worth billions
To them you're not worth one bit
That's what they're telling you
You ain't worth s**t

Building golden ballrooms
Stupid fancy crap
Starving the good people
That's where it's at

Taking a wrecking ball
To what this country was about
Stealing it for their buddies
Makes me wanna shout

They don't want you to have healthcare
They don't want you to have food
They don't want you to live here
Puts me in a mood

US air system finally clearing out at 11/8/25 2104PT... except ATL appears to be hopelessly snarled, 282 min delay with max 868 minute delay on flights. But, the possible staffing triggers are (dare I say) unprecedented for tomorrow. #aviation

New Yorker Magazine: The Shutdown of U.S.A.I.D. Has Already Killed Hundreds of Thousands

"We are now witnessing what the historian Richard Rhodes termed “public man-made death,” which, he observed, has been perhaps the most overlooked cause of mortality in the last century. Brooke Nichols, the Boston University epidemiologist and mathematical modeller, has maintained a respected tracker of current impact. The model is conservative, assuming, for example, that the State Department will fully sustain the programs that remain. As of November 5th, it estimated that U.S.A.I.D.’s dismantling has already caused the deaths of six hundred thousand people, two-thirds of them children."

Flying through the skies
I believe it's not very wise
Air traffic controllers getting no pay
Everywhere there's some kind of delay

Passengers are angry and stuck
Congress just passes the buck
You're going to be lucky to get there today
You might have to find a hotel to stay

Alas this is better than what could be worse
Aircraft accidents, then the hearse
Too many airplanes and not enough ATC
It's an invitation to calamity

@ATLeagle Max delay of 868 minutes, average delay of 282 minutes...

Crap, that's 14 hours and 46 minutes delay for someone!

US air system is... hurting. Is it all going to grind to a halt, or am I just pessimistic? It appears the entire US airspace is at threat of staffing triggers 11/8/25 1502PT #aviation

Hmm, let's see if the Supreme Court is ALSO in favor of starving the American people. You'd think at some point all these people will run out of bunkers.

So many staffing triggers... 11/7/25 2334UTC

The voices of SNAP

Recipients have become political pawns. They explained, in their own words, what Trump withholding funds has been like.

Hmm, what is the proper reaction to this happening (if you are the one whose pocket caught fire). Pull your pants off and run?
