Thanks, GOP! Thanks, Trump! "Next year, the average person who buys Affordable Care Act insurance will be paying 75% more for their premium... plans which serve people who can't get health insurance through their jobs and who don't qualify for Medicaid or Medicare..." www.npr.org/sections/sho...

ACA health insurance will cost the average person 75% more next year, research shows
A new analysis shows that health insurance premiums for Obamacare are set to soar next year, as financial help that subsidized the cost expires. Congress is not likely to extend the subsidies.

Voters in red states are finally done 👏🏻 Watch constituents confront Sen. Chuck Grassley with righteous fury over Trump’s illegal deportations—especially Kilmar Abrego Garcia. As Nicolle Wallace said: Americans are waking up to a lived reality. And no, Republicans—no one’s eating sand anymore.

Senator Van Hollen says he will go to El Salvador himself if Mr Garcia isn't returned immediately. Every member of Congress should be doing this for all the illegally deported people #resist #KilmarAbregoGarcia

The Trump Administration Accidentally Texted Me Its War Plans
U.S. national-security leaders included me in a group chat about upcoming military strikes in Yemen. I didn’t think it could be real. Then the bombs started falling.

American politics makes a lot more sense when you realize that the GOP is afraid of pissing off the GOP base, and the Dems are afraid of pissing off the GOP base, but neither party is afraid of pissing off the Dem base.

Trump says President Zelensky should be nicer to Vladimir Putin: “He doesn’t have to stand there and say ‘Putin this, Putin that,’ all negative things. He’s got to say, ‘I want to make peace, I don’t want to fight any longer.’” (It’s clear that Trump wants Ukraine to surrender to Putin.)

#EconomicBlackout
No Amazon. No Walmart. No Target. No Disney. No Google. No Apple. No Visa or Mastercard. And especially no Facebook or Twitter. Buy essentials such as medicine, food, and emergency supplies, of course, but make those purchases at small, local businesses and use cash. The purpose of today’s economic blackout is to send a clear message: We have the power.
