Vance defended the administration’s vile immigration policies in a way that fundamentally degraded his own family: people he is bound by vows—which should be sacred to a Christian—to love and protect.

Who Is JD Vance? (No, Seriously. Who Is He?)
The vice president is a cynical shapeshifter, willing to say anything—and be anybody—to become the most powerful person in America.

I migrated to the USA going on 15 years now and I still can’t get over needing a prescription for birth control pills. In Jamaica most are OTC, and you can get at least one for free at the Community Health Centre.
It’s been over a year since the first over-the-counter birth control pill became available! Did you know that Apple Health (Medicaid) and other insurance plans may cover OTC birth control without a prescription at your pharmacy?

A former employee who was Jewish wished everyone a Merry Christmas around the holidays. Someone asked him about it and he said why wouldn't I want you to have a Merry Christmas, wouldn't you want me to have a Happy Hanukkah? Great way to celebrate the holidays and he got a lot of Happy Hanukkahs.

Chuck Schumer introduced a resolution to initiate legal action against the Trump administration after the Justice Department did not release its full trove of files on late sex predator Jeffrey Epstein Friday, adding that he will force its consideration once the Senate reconvenes next month.

Insurance is a reactionary product with capped profits. Low population, limited health networks and rural nature create a perfect storm in driving up costs. With the GOP's unwillingness to consider improving healthcare the middleclass in that state is doomed.

If you needed more evidence that Bari Weiss isn't the sharpest crayon in the box, the fact that she (a) personally spiked the story (b) in a way that left her fingerprints all over the decision (c) at the last possible minute, thus guaranteeing maximal exposure and blowback.

Epstein victims on the DOJ cover up:

"It is alarming that the [US] Department of Justice, the very agency tasked with upholding the law, has violated the law, both by withholding massive quantities of documents, and by failing to redact survivor identities.."

In Georgia, a mom facing eviction reached out to DFCS for help. They offered her nothing. Soon the agency took her kids away because of "inadequate housing."

The state then paid *$6,200 a month* to house her kids in foster care.

One of the most important and infuriating stories I read this year:
When Families Need Housing, Georgia Will Pay for Foster Care Rather Than Provide Assistance
In more than 700 cases over five years, Georgia reported inadequate housing as the sole reason for taking a child into foster care, a WABE and ProPublica analysis found. Advocates say it would be chea...

This tells you that Vance thinks the MAGA base isn’t just full of diehard racists; he thinks it’s full of diehard racists who are also too cowardly to be openly racist if they think people might disapprove

While we stand by the reporting in our 60 Minutes piece about El Salvador's CECOT mega-prison, it was missing crucial information—specifically about how woke campus protestors would benefit from a few weeks there to see how good they have it.
