@DDDrewDaniel You better ask Go West if it's alright. They're the king of wishful thinking.

Sen. Lisa Murkowski@lisamurkowski·
This was one of the hardest votes I have taken during my time in the Senate.   My goal throughout the reconciliation process has been to make a bad bill better for Alaska, and in many ways, we have done that. In addition to extending pro-growth tax cuts, a larger child tax credit, and no tax on tips or overtime, we made a historic investment and modernization of the Coast Guard; enhanced our border security and national defense; funded aviation safety, including AWOS/VWOS systems that will save lives; and provided tax-exempt status for the Community Development Quota Program to help western Alaska communities establish a sustainable economy, among other provisions.   We have advanced new opportunities for resource development in the NPR-A, the Coastal Plain, and Cook Inlet that will help us create jobs and increase the share of revenues our state receives. I also co-led the Senate effort to restore a slightly longer phase-out for wind and solar tax credits while deleting a punitive excise tax targeting them.   Those provisions will benefit our economy, but it is the people of Alaska that I worry about the most, especially when it comes to the potential loss of social safety net programs—Medicaid coverage and SNAP benefits—that our most vulnerable populations rely on.   To address the bill’s shortcomings, we have helped our communities through a $50 billion rural health fund. This will mean hundreds of millions of dollars for Alaska hospitals, community health centers, and other providers. We secured commitments from the CMS Administrator to continue to address longstanding priorities which will directly help Bartlett, Fairbanks Memorial, Central Peninsula, and other hospitals in Alaska.   In the SNAP program, we have added tribal exemptions for work requirements, delayed cost-share penalties to help Alaska get benefits to the people who need them, and included work requirement waivers that align with our Medicaid policies. We also secured commitments from the Secretary of Agriculture to provide additional flexibilities to Alaska for SNAP.   But, let’s not kid ourselves. This has been an awful process—a frantic rush to meet an artificial deadline that has tested every limit of this institution. While we have worked to improve the present bill for Alaska, it is not good enough for the rest of our nation—and we all know it.   My sincere hope is that this is not the final product. This bill needs more work across chambers and is not ready for the President’s desk. We need to work together to get this right.

I bought an 8.6oz package of @Gardettos and it is 90% pretzels. What the hell? If I wanted that many pretzels I would have bought a bag of pretzels. Stupid.

@souLyft created a really cool iOS synth called Chime. I've been playing with it for a few weeks as part of the beta, and it's awesome! Go get it! chimenotbank.com

A sobering message from a history teacher: I’ve spent years teaching American and international government — from strong democracies like the UK to authoritarian regimes like russia and China. But lately, the most alarming lesson comes from home. 1/n

@StandUnited76 @HepcatinExile @ShipHappens1965 @rshereme This thread laid out some facts, and all you can say is "Herpa derp, homeschool. Derp derp derp." but sure, keep on your Fuhrer's orange dick. It'll be interesting when he comes for you and your family. Oh wait, you don't think it will effect you negatively. Good luck. Godspeed.

@HepcatinExile @StandUnited76 @ShipHappens1965 @rshereme It's always the dudes that call people dumb who can't fucking spell and are dumb as shit. They try to use their "fancy" words, but when it comes down to it, they can't spell "buffoon" when calling you a buffoon.

@itsoxis I love this. What are the lines and squares tracking? Just movement? What are you using to do that? Sorry if this is a dumb question, I just think it's really cool, and I'm very curious about what is going on there, and how you're doing that.
