Republicans are going to let ACA tax credits expire. What does that mean? If you get your healthcare from the Marketplace you will be paying 75% more on average for your premium. I’m fighting back. Call your Representative and tell them to stop premium hikes.

This is in honor of YOU.
Not for getting it right, figuring things out, or struggling less.
This is for putting one foot in front of the other (as best you can) when everything within you feels like you can't. It doesn't get any braver than that.

They’re planning on building a detention center for migrants in the middle of the fetid swamps of Florida. If you think this is something new, the first internment camp they sent me and my family to in 1942 was a barbed wire prison called Rohwer. It was located in the swamps of Arkansas.

RIP to the great Sly Stone. A monumental loss. His PR just sent this out.
a photo of sly stone with text that says “It is with profound sadness that we announce the passing of our beloved dad, Sly Stone of Sly and the Family Stone. After a prolonged battle with COPD and other underlying health issues, Sly passed away peacefully, surrounded by his three children, his closest friend, and his extended family. While we mourn his absence, we take solace in knowing that his extraordinary musical legacy will continue to resonate and inspire for generations to come.”

Senator Ted Cruz posted a dramatic video of LAPD cars on fire with the caption “this… is… not… peaceful.” What he didn’t mention? The footage was from 2020, not 2025. His post on X falsely implied it was current, part of a broader effort to spread lies and manufacture a crisis.

Efficiency - Gator Days
Panel 1

August is hard at working doing computer things when his boss comes in to check on him. Anticipation and dread fills August's head. The computer is attempting to install updates.

Stuart: Hey, big guy! Done with the software updates?

August: Almost. There's two computers left.

Panel 2

Stuart glances at his phone which contains the message that's about to ruin August's day.

Stuart: That's great. Really great.

Panel 3

Stuart does his best to sound cheerful while delivering the news. The computer has encountered an error. The screen says "Soul not found. Installing soul."

Stuart: Corporate wants new software so you need to replace it.

August: Again? Do you know why?

Panel 4

Stuart keeps the smile on his face and attempts to ease August's frustrations. The computer screen says "What is love? Am I loved? I'm so lonely."

Stuart: To make things more efficient.

August: All this efficiency keeps doubling my world load.

Stuart: Exactly.

The woman who shouted "people will die" at Joni Ernst, India May, is a nurse and a librarian who first got involved in politics by going to a town hall about bills aiming to defund libraries. Now she's running for state house. eu.desmoinesregister.com/story/news/p...
What does India May want to accomplish in the Iowa House?
May said she first got involved in Iowa politics earlier this year when she attended a town hall held by the state legislators in her area, including Thomson.

In part, May said she went to oppose a bill that would deny state funding to libraries that are members of the American Library Association and Iowa Library Association, and another that would remove an exemption in Iowa's obscenity law that shields libraries and educational institutions. Neither bill ultimately passed.

"I’m a nurse and a librarian, and I went to my first town hall this year to advocate for libraries and realized that there were a lot more pieces of legislation that were harmful on the Iowa level that I didn’t even hear about until it was too late," she said.

I think we’ve reached a boiling point when it comes to ICE. Today in Minneapolis, a militarized task force raided the beloved Lake Street taqueria, Las Cuatro Milpas—and the community was not having it. Agents from ICE, the DEA, FBI, ATF, IRS and HHS rolled up looking like they were ready for war.
