A 911 call from Salem, Oregon, describes a disturbing encounter in which a woman was screaming that she was a U.S. citizen as ICE goons broke her vehicle window and forcibly pulled her out. According to reporting on the call, the woman suffered a concussion, torn rotator cuff and bruised ribs.

There is a suspected outbreak of the plague in Russia. Yes, you read that right. And we cannot trust RFK Jr. and the Trump administration to be prepared to deal with this. We need a Democratic public health doctor in the US Senate.

Scoop: White House monitors suspected plague outbreak in Russia

Each election year, the U.S. Postal Service (USPS) takes extra steps to ensure ballots sent through the mail arrive at election offices on time. This year, it’s delaying those efforts. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

Americans are relearning the lesson we learned during the Gilded Age of the late 1890s, when robber barons ran the government and the economy for their own benefit: Oligarchy is incompatible with the common good. I'm hopeful we'll respond with a new progressive movement.

Congress appropriated taxpayer dollars to honor officers killed in the line of duty. Donald Trump used that money for campaign ads. If you need a clearer illustration of who he is and what he values, you won't find one.

All across the US, MAGA-governed counties stand out. Their population engage in profligate self-destructive conduct and their healthcare facilities and access to healthcare are at the level of third-world countries. Conversely, Democratic counties operate at the high end of the developed world.

Discussion well worth listening to. These two have been totally in the trenches and details of health care reform for at least a decade. As AES points out adding kids would be an existential and material relief to families and cost little. Most kids are incredibly healthy and a few are vey sick.
