Wednesday Open Thread

by Carl Ballard โ€” Wednesday, 11/5/25, 8:22 am

Hey gang. It’s nice when lefties win. Good results across the country. It’s too early to tell, but I think good results in Seattle. Well, the City Council races and a City Attorney who doesn’t hate Seattle’s poorest people. Across the state, it seems like a lot more W’s than L’s.

Also, I don’t know what’s happening with SNAP benefits, but you can donate to the Pike Market Food Bank.

    MAGA Mike Jesus Johnson finally saw something that happened the day before. But only to dismiss it as “Blue states doing Blue Things.” Like Mississippi.

    Then he went back on vacation and didn’t swear in a representative who won her seat 43 days ago.

    Thinking about Dumbfuck’s sad boy posts last night. Let’s just say the Senate does come to some agreement and amends the CR. Sends it back to the House where Mike can’t take it up because then he’d have to seat a Democratic house member and Donnie won’t let him release the Epstein files under any circumstances.

    Given last night’s results even in Red States, are Democrats requiring concessions on Health care to reopen the government in a

    a. Stronger position
    b. Weaker position

    And if an Amended CR comes back to the house how many of the BBC oops BBB super fans in the House can Mike lose?

    Just wait til Secretary Real World cancels everyone’s fly home plans for Thanksgiving.

    Letโ€™s just say the Senate does come to some agreement and amends the CR.

    First, let’s just clear up the false claim by the Actual Nazi Fucktard that this would somehow represent “caving” by Dems. This is what Senate Dems have been asking for since the House sent over their extremist, partisan garbage CR on September 19th. A compromise that restores the APTC would be a victory for Dems.

    So an amended CR that restores APTC and keeps the ACA marketplace coverage plans alive into 2026 is what the House would have to vote on. And now that their constituents have received their renewal notices and seen their monthly premiums triple, plenty of House Republicans are ready to take the win.

    It’s a win they probably need more than ever after the results they saw last night. But it will either require breaking ranks with MAGAT Mike and Fat Hitler, or a big reversal from the White House. And that might cost MAGAT Mike his gavel. Fat Hitler never loses, but some loyal soldier has to pay for it.

    That’s why the Actual Nazi Fucktard retreated into ret-conning the CR. It’s “suddenly” possible that stripping health coverage and access for 40 million voters and their children is unpopular and that this upopularity is growing. Worse, polling indicates that while a smaller, but still significant majority of voters blame Republicans for the Shit Down, a much, much larger majority of voters blame Republicans for blowing up the ACA marketplaces that so many American families rely upon for their access to healthcare. This makes compromise on the APTC the most viable pathway out of the Shit Down for Republicans as well as for Democrats. So natch, the Actual Nazi Fucktard now “suddenly” needs to make that feel like a Democrat defeat, rather than a Republican defeat.

    The fascist YOLOing may have just come to an end. And he knows it.

    Biggest lesson to MAGA fascists from the SCOTUS:
    When you sell your Supreme Court appointments to billionaires you get their agenda, not yours. And Harlan Crow hates tariffs even more than he hates minorities.

    Local City of Newcastle appears to have ousted their MAGA leaning city council.

    โ€œBear in mind that a vote for Curtis is really a vote for Mumdumi or whatever his name is,โ€ Musk wrote, referencing Republican candidate Curtis Sliwa. โ€VOTE CUOMO!โ€
