Chris Murphy on Joni Ernst: "I think everybody in that audience knows they're going to die, they would just rather die in old age at 85 or 90 instead of dying at 40. And the reality is that when you lose your healthcare, you are much more at risk of early death."

73% of mothers with kids under 18 are in the workforce. More than flowers or brunch, working moms need:

-Paid family leave
-Equal pay
-Universal childcare

(But get your mom flowers, too)

Probably people with paranormal powers good at reading the mind of Trump and members of his inner circle. Or maybe just a lot of lucky people. I’m sure nobody leaked the announcement to anyone. That would be illegal.

His name was Joe Biden. …
