This is another major blow to extending the expiring ACA tax credits as sharp premium hikes await millions of Americans starting in January. Some Republicans want a temporary extension to avert that, but they are losing the argument. www.nbcnews.com/politics/don...
Trump says he would 'rather not' extend Obamacare tax credits 'at all'
The president said he prefers to let the Affordable Care Act subsidies expire on schedule at the end of December, saying if anything he wants the money to go to "the people directly."

NEW: Donald Trump says he wants ACA funds to end after 2025

“I’d rather not" extend them, he tells reporters on AF1. "I don’t want to extend them for two years. I’d rather not extend them at all."

He wants cash to go "directly" to people. Unclear how that'd work.

The Trump administration’s war on tourism in red states continues
National parks have SO MANY people from other countries (since they get real vacations!)

And they spend a lot of money on hotels, food, souvenirs, etc.

This is unbelievably dumb, it will destroy entire tourist towns

BREAKING: Oklahoma, the state with the current lowest average price of gasoline has just fallen to its lowest level in 1,735 days: $2.43/gal. They haven't seen it this low since Feb 25, 2021. More states could soon join thanks to low oil prices & refinery maintenance wrapping.

Tina Peters' attorney is backing the idea of President Trump using a military raid to free her from a prison in Colorado.

Meanwhile, a bipartisan group of Colorado's county clerks say Gov Polis (D) is betraying election workers with his silence on whether he'll free Peters.

There is a reason why Witkoff did not want any officials with the State Dept or anyone else present during his many meetings w/Putin - he didn’t want witnesses to his treasonous behavior. Highly unusual, but makes perfect sense when you consider that he only cared about Russia.

They literally Google-translated Russia's demands, and called it the plan.
Trump on his administration's initial Russia-friendly peace plan: "That was not a plan. It was a concept."

He continues to treat Russia like it didn’t start the war
REPORTER: What kind of concessions are the Russians going to have to make?

TRUMP: The big concession is they stop fighting and they don't take any more land

I hope folks realize that between Trump, Kushner, Hegseth, Witkoff, Noem, RFK, Jr., Kash Patel, and Tulsi Gabbard, this country is almost entirely undefended.
Q: Have you heard this audio that Bloomberg has of Witkoff coaching the Russians on how to appeal to you?

TRUMP: That's a standard thing. He's gotta sell this to Ukraine, he's gonna sell Ukraine to Russia. That's what a dealmaker does. I haven't heard it but I heard it was standard negotiation.

Bloomberg has obtained the transcript of a call between Trump envoy Steve Witkoff and a senior aide to Vladimir Putin — in which Witkoff advised the aide — a Russian aide — on how Putin should go about pitching Trump on a pro-Russian peace plan aimed at bringing an end to the Ukraine war.

Himes: "In combination with the Russia plan and the lethal strikes on drug boats, what the world is seeing is that the Trump administration is purely performative. It doesn't matter what really happens so long as in the moment when you're very mad at Mark Kelly, you threaten to Court-martial him."

Key point from Congressman Himes:

The through line for so many of the administration’s actions is performance.

Reality TV administration.

Himes: "This shows Steve Witkoff almost literally sitting side with the Russians on this ... it's unimaginable to consider the fact that you would propose a peace deal that the Ukrainians didn't even know about."
