NEW: Democrats will force a Senate vote on a 3-year extension of Affordable Care Act funds

Per Schumer, every Dem will vote YES.

It needs 60. Won't happen. Most Republicans want these Covid-era funds gone.

It'll becomes a 2026 issue when premiums soar.

Democrats will force a Senate vote on a 3-year extension of Affordable Care Act funds
The legislation is all but guaranteed to fail next week, due to widespread Republican opposition, and become a key issue in the 2026 elections as insurance premiums rise.

Launches of Russian/Iranian Shahed-type killer drones detected at 9 locations in fascist Russia, so it looks like the Kremlin may be planning a big attack. Two subs capable of firing a total of 12 Kalibr cruise missiles stationed in Azov Sea, so combined missile attack possible.

Quite breathtaking story - military grade drones at Dublin airport which flew on the path Zelensky's plane took. The drones reached the flight path of his plane exactly the time it should have been there, but just missed it because Zelensky arrived ahead of schedule:
Four unidentified military-style drones breached no-fly zone to target Zelenskyy's arrival in Dublin
Gardaí are investigating whether the drones took off from land in Dublin or from an undetected ship.

In addition, the whole reason why the ACA is set up as ADVANCE tax credits is because if you could afford to wait over a year to get the financial help you probably wouldn’t need the assistance in the first place.
Even if an above-the-line deduction where you don’t have to itemize, it would provide the biggest benefit to those with the highest incomes/in highest tax brackets while providing no or modest benefits to those with lower incomes (who now most benefit from the enhanced Marketplace credits). 1/2
Sen. Josh Hawley, R-Mo., is proposing a new tax deduction for healthcare costs as lawmakers face an end-of-year deadline to address an expiring Affordable Care Act tax credit.

I tell Trump my peace terms, Trump tells Witkoff what they are and then Witkoff tells me Trump's terms that I told him then I say they aren't enough so we both blame Ukraine for me not accepting my own terms and I keep attacking them.

Hillary Clinton blames TikTok and “totally made up” videos for young people’s views on Israel and Palestine.

She says social media influenced “not just the usual suspects” but also “young Jewish Americans who don’t know the history and don’t understand.”
