    The military had a chance to do something absolutely hilarious right now. They won’t but they have the chance.

    Hunker down and protect themselves from… Oh boy! Can’t wait for Republicans next attempt to kick off riots. It’s always a good sign when a government starts protecting itself from their people. /s

    Maybe the latest projections to incite Americans by screwing over SNAP benefits recipients is bigger than planned.

          The latest Last Week Tonight has a good primer on some of it. Medicare Advantage is what my ex sells, and they are up in arms right now that open enrollment is just dead, and the shutdown has tied their hands in many ways. Things are going to get ugly.

    I’m surprised it took them that long. It’s going to be ironic if the military finally has enough of their BS though

    That means they are probably planning something even more horrific and need the protection.
