New: Bari Weiss booked Hillary Clinton, Mike Pompeo, and Antony Blinken for a roundtable on Gaza, her first major move at CBS.

Notably on a CBS call today in which the panel was floated, one producer also repeatedly emphasized the need to hear from Palestinians in Gaza (Weiss did not respond).

The level of destruction and erasure in the Gaza Strip is simply incredible. North Gaza, before and after:

Reminder: The guy demanding credit for a ceasefire in Gaza is the same guy instigating a civil war here at home.

4. I’m one of the 24M Americans soon to face a dire choice: pay unsustainable premiums or go without. It’s a dire choice, but I’m lucky. While others can’t work more than they do, I can sell more subscriptions, I figure I need to reach abt 100 new subscribers. www.editorialboard.com/please-subsc...

3. At least. Then there’s the fact that health care is already rising in cost. And then there’s another fact: As more people leave Obamacare, because it costs too much, those of us who remain will pay even more. I will pay double, but then again, I could end up paying a lot more.

2. That sentence explains what my bill would be if not for the subsidies that were expanded during the covid pandemic under the Inflation Reduction Act. That “Advance Premium Tax Credit” is what everyone’s talking about. If the Republicans don’t renew it, my bill will double.

I think it is impossibel to do no harm at all. You step on grass, on insects probably. Bacteria are killed in your stomach by acid. You can be mindful though.

Why would we want clean energy that would power almost 2M homes when we can continue to drill for dirty oil and coal and line the pockets of big business?

Because my child is black, no one donated to him. 😭
I am tired of this unfair racism.
How unfortunate it is when one of your children is diagnosed with a cancerous tumor and you are powerless to save their life from this deadly cancer.
