@Chat_StubHub_R Hi, I don’t use Twitter much. I just followed @StubHub but I don’t see how to DM? My flight is about to take off. As soon as I can get on the WiFi, I will check back! I appreciate the help! I really want to see this show!

@SenatorDurbin This is the wrong decision! The House will never vote on the ACA subsidies, so that agreement to hold a vote in the senate in December is useless. Please please reconsider! Use your power!

@DoctorOfRadost @grok @rshereme Perhaps, if ICE are prone to error (as seems to be the case) they should be more careful instead of pursuing deportation behind masks. Shoot first, ask questions later is authoritarian. “Nuance” around detaining people should err on the side of the person being arrested.

@RVAwonk You should watch the first episode of Carla Hall’s series Chasing Flavor, which features Baltimore Snowballs, if I recall. I think it is on HBO.

@SecKennedy @HHSGov Shame the president is cutting SNAP and Medicaid, including new programs for Health Related Socisl Needs like “food as Medicine”. Maybe stand for health!

@col_ath @douglandry I mean millions turned out in person for No Kings rallies in heat, rain, and threat of RWNJs showing up. Please do check on just who does the horrible and deadly things at events.

@MonicaLMarks I came away with two things from Zach’s essay: he thinks he’d be doing the university a favor by attending and he wants to get laid. He definitely doesn’t think he has anything to learn.

@23andMeSupport @23andMe Yes, but what do I do now? I can’t try again because it just says I’ll get an email, and I didn’t get the email to confirm. I need someone to send the confirmation email to me. Please dm. Thank you.

@23andMeSupport @23andMe writing for my dad, who doesn’t have Twitter. He is trying to delete his data and website advised he would get a confirmation email. He did not get the email. He can’t get through to customer care.

@SenatorDurbin I am a constituent. I’ve voted for you every single time you’ve run. This is shameful and appalling. I am angry. I can no longer defend Dem Leadership. Looking forward to voting for your primary challenger in 2026.

@RetiredCrimeDog @BrettMmurphy Everyone is answering. the impoundment act: can’t hold funds Congress appropriated, the executive branch manages the execution of laws passed by Congress. Article I of the constitution, gives power of the purse to Congress. And more, don’t lie and say noone is giving specifics!

@bjhjsh @jamesanthony_us @SeanCasten No. His FIRST plan was stopped by the court. He then took actions that were legally within his power and cancelled SOME student debt. How do we know it’s legal? The courts did not overturn his incremental approach. Law is nuanced but you only see things in black and white.

@jamesanthony_us @SeanCasten Um, I think it is the courts that decide if laws are unconstitutional. That is not a function of the executive branch.

@LauraGailRowe @SeanCasten Yes. I am an advocate for lower military spending. Congress often passes funding for weapons systems etc. that the Pentagon says they don’t need (usually because it creates jobs in their districts). But the place to go to stop that is CONGRESS, not the Pentagon.

@ArtCandee There are more children and working age adults on Medicaid than there are elderly, but the most MONEY (70%? I think) is spent on the elderly for nursing home care. So, yes, grandma, get up out of that bed and get to work.

@andypatriot369 @pet_surft Hahahahaha. So product X from Canada price goes up due to tariffs. Same product Y is fully made in the US (dubious but let’s pretend). You think US corps are going to keep their prices low? No, they will sell for what the market is charging, that is, the price of product X.
