Here's how we get Medicare for All done: Make Medicare whole (no one can keep all the parts straight!) Include vision, dental, and hearing. Begin extending to more people, starting with children. We arrive at Medicare for All, which means great Medicare for everyone.

Can’t believe our tax dollars are being used for political ads. The White House is now airing a taxpayer-funded ad during commercial breaks on Fox News. The 30-second spot has all the markings of a campaign ad, except the disclaimer at the bottom says: “Paid for by the U.S. Government.”

Xi Jinping invoked the “Thucydides Trap” right to Trump’s face, a reference to the clash between a rising power and a declining one. The message Xi was sending was unmistakable: China is the ascending power. America is declining. This is at least the second time Xi has raised this in front of Trump.
