Republicans will claim Padilla — one of the kindest people I know — is a menacing man who stormed the briefing with smoke coming out of his ears. But the video doesn't lie. He didn’t lunge. He announced himself. He just wanted answers.

Every flashbang could instead be a meal for a poor kid. Every hotel room for a National Guardsman deployed to fire at our neighbors could house a homeless vet. Every "less-than-lethal" bullet pulled from a journalist's eye could be already needed healthcare for anyone else. All of this is a choice.

Today’s NY Post headline looking like it’s straight out of 2020 is something else. This may pour a little cold water on the whole “mild” part though. Good luck out there.

In addition to healthy people who just, you know, DON'T WANT TO GET COVID with the attendant risk of long covid (which can happen to anyone, no matter how previously healthy) — this will hurt households where one person is at high risk and their loved ones can't get vaccinated to help protect them

About half of all births are covered by Medicaid. Over a third of all kids have health care thanks to Medicaid. More than half of all nursing home residents are covered by Medicaid. So understand this: when the GOP attacks Medicaid, they attack families in every community.

This surprised me. Eleven days left to be able to download ebooks from your online Amazon library. Seriously? I looked into it, and it's less drastic than that, I think. The 2/26/2025 cutoff is for transferring via USB. You can still transfer to devices via Wi-Fi after that date.
