At some point, a journalist needs to ask Johnson
“you regularly claim you have no idea what your own government is doing.
If we take you at your word, how are you so poorly informed,
and do you this level of ignorance should disqualify you as speaker?”

DeSantis:🚨ppl <50 don't have much use for comp #health insur.
Gov DeSantis, now 47, says ppl his age & a little bit older can get by w/o much preventive care. “Most ppl, particularly <50, what they really need is a catastrophic plan that’s affordable, where then they can pay whatever they’re doing out of a health savings acct."
"Curious how his supporters will twist themselves into a pretzel to defend this comment."

@AlliFlowers What a weird place to chill after organizing mass murder in Israel?

@nedhamson1 The Bulwark reports that J.D. tells us " Don't focus on what kids say in group chats... The reality is that kids do stupid things, especially young boys — they tell edgy, offensive jokes." One can only hope that Usha does most of the parenting so their sons don't learn from daddy that this behavior is just stupid - boys being boys.
