A Florida-based company is charging military veterans as much as $20,000 for help with disability claims, even though the VA has said that may be illegal and the service should be free. But so far nobody's stopping the company and others like it.

What a Jew learned from meeting Zohran Mamdani | The Jerusalem Post
I have no reason to believe that Zohran Mamdani is antisemitic or remotely close to that. But I learned that we must argue better. Respectfully, and truthfully, without demonizing the other side.

Wells Fargo scammed millions of people by opening fake accounts. The Trump Administration just reduced a former Wells Fargo exec's $10 million fine to $0.

Trump is making life more affordable for Wall Street executives — and more expensive for everyone else.

The language may mislead voters into believing noncitizens are voting en masse. This is a redundant and unnecessary alarmist proposition. Please vote no on Prop 16!

Anyone who listened to RFK Jr. yesterday knows that he was at "the top of his class" at school in the same way that other idiot, Donald Trump, was. He was *definitely* not.

Also, what would Nancy Reagan make of his "Just Say Yes To Drugs" campaign?

But all that liquor helps explain his policies.
