Remember that insurance is actually a thing you hope never to use, and then read this critique.

If the Supreme Court rules against the President, expect it "move our chaotic trade war that was really chaotic-and-settled, into merely chaotic, back to extremely chaotic again."

OK, where are we on the SNAP benefits cases?

Two things happened this morning:

* DOJ told SCOTUS they're still fighting to stop full November SNAP benefit payments, via their stay request at SCOTUS
* District court judge in Mass. stayed USDA's 11/8 memo ordering states to "undo" full payments

The monthly SNAP benefit is around $177 a month

The average ACA benefit can be up to $550 a month

These are small numbers compared to the billion dollar tax cuts given to corporations

The $40 billion to Argentina or $45 billion for ICE

They’re life saving programs & Dems must hold the line

ICE agents in Chicago violently detain a non verbal autistic man for being “non compliant”

He couldn’t “comply” because of his disability…they don’t care

This is not the first time they’ve gone after a disabled person

They target the most vulnerable because it’s an easy way to meet their quota

Half a year into his papacy, Pope Leo has done what no world leader — religious or political — has dared: he’s taking on Trump’s empire of lies, head-on.

I was there the night Leo was elected. I’ve spent the last six months watching him find his voice — and it’s shaking the foundations of power.
Six Months of Pope Leo: "This is An Hour For Love"
The moment six months ago, when white smoke billowed over where I stood in St. Peter’s Square and Pope Leo XIV was elected the 267th leader of the Catholic Church, is one I’ll never forget.

If you care about US manufacturing, then you'll be glad to hear the coat was cut and sewn in Rochester, NY at a company that has been around since 1899. This is a unionized workforce with immigrants from around the world, some of whom have been with the factory for 50+ years.

Sen. Markey: Last weekend, I met with Jeff, who is fighting stage 4 lung cancer. He pays $35,000 a year for an affordable care health care plan. If he can't keep that insurance plan, he will have to pay $300,000 a year. Jeff does not have $300,000. These people are afraid, and they're angry.

We’re less than a year into his presidency and we’re seeing recession-like layoffs, MTG is calling Trump a liar on CNN, Megyn Kelly and Ben Shapiro are beefing, and GOP influencer accounts are accusing Trump of gaslighting.

🚨 NEW: Trump's biggest lesson from his first term?

He left money on the table.

He's returned to the White House with three new ways—all easier and faster than booking a hotel room—for allies, favor-seekers and foreigners to funnel money to the US president.

Heartbreaking. I’ve asked subscribers to send me screenshots of their premium increases, and I can’t even tell you how many emails I’m getting like this.

Folks can’t pay these rates. This family is in TX, but it’s happening everywhere. Congress MUST extend the ACA tax credits.

Combating this lie is tiresome.

But it’s worth pointing out that RBOB gasoline today hit its highest level since September. ⛽️
Trump: "I don't want to hear about the affordability, because right now we're much less. If you look at energy, we're getting close to $2 a gallon gasoline."
