Mersky
Mersky's JournalPage 569 of Project 2025 calls for the politicization of the DOJ, FBI, etc.
Kirschner had a nice back and forth on the topic, that you can’t populate the department with political appointees and claim that they’re impartially pursuing justice.
Gym responded by ripping off his shirt, flashing his baboon ass, and then screeching something about Christopher Wray. Ya know, his typical, hardline judiciary committee tactics.
Oooo good question
Muir actually explained that tariffs would raise prices. That it would cost the average family $4,000 a year, then asked if they could afford that.
Medicare is mentioned 51 times across three chapters or sections
Chapter 14 is where you’d find methods of funneling recipients to Medicare Advantage, taking away drug price negotiations, a conflicted preference for HMOs, and generalized references to tRump admins non-solutions to healthcare being “complicated.” Then later in the document, they talk about loosening licensing restrictions on doctors and healthcare providers, because of course.
There’s a lot more, but make no mistake, they will mess up Medicare.
Yep. There's something that'll piss off every single American in Project 2025
Including Texas farmers gathering for breakfast at a certain country diner (no, NYTimes, I won’t tell you where it is). Chapter 10 is all about agriculture and it is chock-full of favors for Big Ag. Any small, family-owned farms that benefited from crop insurance, CRP, ARC, or PLC during the past 8 years will discover Project 2025 outlines dismantling or curtailing those programs. They propose raising insurance premiums and outright repealing assistance programs.
And if they don’t like what a tRump administration does to their bottom line at a time of rapid climate and weather changes, well, they won’t be able to vote against it if tRump becomes a dictator on day one.

Yeah, I'm not going to be satisfied until I do just that
Govt websites from around the state are varying degrees of acceptable to nepo/payola garbage piles. I believe this whole suspense status mess came from the 2021 legislative session when Dan Patrick and his gang shoved the voting suppression bill thru outside of normal process. As a result of that chicanery, larger population counties are required to do extra checks against DPS and SoS records. If the SoS site fails to produce results on the first or second try (like I experienced), then it is quite possible verification is failing when large county election offices go to run their checks.
Check your registrations, Texans
Just searched our info, and one person in my household is on the suspense list. The Secretary of State’s crummy website initially did not recognize my info or my spouse’s, but did after searching with other criteria (then, holy heck, it did find our registrations when I used the original criteria on subsequent searches). Then, after 2 failed attempts, a family member’s profile came back as on the suspense list.
The Travis County voter lookup website returns nothing for all three of us. We all voted in the March primary and two of us voted in the May election this year. We moved in the past year, but were sure to update our IDs, vehicle registration, postal address, and notably, our registration addresses.
Thank you for posting this, Nevilledog — assuming that your registration is good, because you just voted in May isn’t enough in Texas, apparently.
I detest what 30 years of repuke gerrymandering, lying, and incompetency has done to my state. 
Thank you! Journaling as a reference.
There’s a teenager in my family with excellent penmanship who wants to get involved even though they won’t be old enough to vote this year.
Bookmarking and journaling. Thank you for posting it.

Damn. "get a fucking abortion"
tRump can always get worse.
His platform wants to track women and their pregnancies across the country. On page 5 of his billionaire owners’ “Project 2025” fascist manifesto, it says they’ll criminalize pornography. The frickin’ gall they have to criminalize consensual, legal, and private matters of sexuality and health whilst ‘tRump the child rapist’ sits atop their jeehawd* against the USA.
He threw money at a child and told her to get an abortion.
It’s tRump that is desperate, not Biden.

Thank you, Governor! I'm standing with Joe!
He’s honest, hard working, and effective. I cannot believe how much has been thrown at him, and keeps on doing a great job without getting the credit he deserves.
And I’m getting more fired up, too. I was shocked and sad over the SCROTUS six yesterday, but I’m pissed off today.
Joe is fine. It’s tRump that needs to explain himself with all of his lies, his felonies, the rights he’ll take away from us, as well as how he’ll kill jobs, clean air, water, etc.
