You have to keep giving money to avoid collapse and if there’s collapse you have to give more money. It’s called the free market.

Sen Mark Kelly isn’t a far left radical. I wouldn’t even label him progressive. From his record, he’s fairly moderate.
Not the easiest target in politics. We all need to stand up for him or we’re gonna fail this regime’s test.

That Trump accepts a Kremlin capitulation demand for Ukraine as "his" plan clarifies that he is irrelevant in foreign policy.
Europe & Ukraine should ignore Trump (the US) in their dealing with Russia:
What Ukraine needs is more arms & money!

If Trump doesn’t sign legislation before December 15 to extend ACA tax credits, millions of Americans will be forced to pay far more for health insurance, or forgo it altogether.

NASA reduces flights on Boeing's Starliner spacecraft after botched astronaut mission
NASA on Monday slashed the number of astronaut missions on Boeing's Starliner contract and said the spacecraft's next mission to the International Space Station will fly without a crew, reducing the scope of a program hobbled by engineering woes and outpaced by Elon Musk's SpaceX.
