Here’s the thing about healthcare premiums about to skyrocket: they will never come back down, short of a complete overhaul of our system for universal healthcare. Which clearly won’t happen bc of all the money tied up between health and politics.

Normally Veterans day is quite busy for restaurants, given the whole free food to Vets thing. In the past wait times have been like maybe an hour. This year the wait is WAY over 2hrs and it's been this way all day at every place I have tried. It's actually terrifying how food insecure Veterans are.

Rooting against your country in a lawsuit is a new experience but here we are.
In September, federal agents swarmed a Hyundai manufacturing site, detaining more than 500 workers, including more than 300 from South Korea.
Now, nearly 200 detainees are preparing to sue ICE, alleging human rights violations and unlawful arrest.

These South Korean workers came to the US to build an EV battery plant. They left in shackles. They still want to know why

From street marches to court battles to the ballot box - we’ve challenged the power of this exceptionally unpopular president.
The lesson from each success we've had is that we need to ramp the political pressure up, always up, not back down, now more than ever.

Senators believe enough Democrats are ready to reopen the government. The White House isn’t standing in the way of an emerging deal.

I was wondering why not one other Republican House Rep has stepped forward and did the right thing and said, “Give me that petition. I’ll sign it.” Only 4 so far.
Republican = Betrayal
This is why the whole GOP Party must be dismantled. The name is a stain. Many of them ”must” be tried for Treason.

Senate Dems, do not cave. Ensuring healthcare premiums don’t surge is an 80-20 issue. They want to gut the ACA because their disdain for Obama far outweighs their concern for anyone’s health.

It’s about to be a cold winter, and many Maryland families rely on federal programs to heat their homes.
One of those programs, the Low-Income Home Energy Assistance Program, is being delayed because of Trump’s federal shutdown.

Exactly this. The US used to be a steady partner and the most coveted market. Now? Who will ever trust us again? Our institutions are apparently helpless against a cabal of greedy unprincipled people
Trump's tariffs are hurting us in two ways:
First, the obvious: Higher costs → either lower profits or higher prices.
Second, more subtle (perhaps bigger): We’ve signaled we’re an unreliable partner, so allies are reorganizing supply chains to avoid us. That's hard to unwind.
