In a few days, you may be notified that your health insurance premiums will double, because of Republican cuts to health care. Democrats are fighting to change that before it's too late.

Today's Low Quality Ad is for this "I Hate This Timeline" pin. Think of all the great timelines we could be experiencing. One where dogs can talk. A timeline where Game of Thrones didn't botch the ending. One where Keanu Reeves became president and convinced Putin to be cool.

A round pin with a distraught looking frog. It has a black border that says "I Hate This Timeline".

People ask what they can do in this moment: here's a crucially important election. There are 52,000 elections taking place next month, many of which will be determined by turnout.

Dispatch from Pennsylvania on a highly unusual state Supreme Court election—one of the few most consequential matters on the ballot anywhere in the country next month. New from me in @boltsmag.org: boltsmag.org/pennsylvania...

Inside the Clunky Elections to Control Pennsylvania's Supreme Court - Bolts

The GOP is making an expensive push to end Democrats’ majority on a court at the center of election lawsuits, sparking a fledging campaign season with little precedent or template.

The local news just reported an average of a 26% increase in the state for ALL insurance premiums.
I guess local insurers need those ACA subsidies and Medicaid premiums to keep all payees rates lower.

I can’t believe I have to say this, but historically, masked men who kidnap families in the middle of the night are usually not the good guys.
