Stevens: There’s $1.3 trillion of credit card debt. There are people putting grocery bills on credit cards and then paying interest on them. We are in an affordability crisis. Coffee is up 20%, beef is up 16%, bacon is up over 10%. And now we’re going to see health care costs skyrocket.

The right has declared that although Trump’s political prosecutions are regrettable, the “Democrats brought it on themselves,” @jonathanchait writes. But “Trump was no victim of the legal system. If anything, he received preferential treatment”: www.theatlantic.com/politics/arc...

Don’t Blame the Democrats for Trump’s Revenge Tour

Defending Trump’s lawfare as just deserts misremembers what actually happened.

Today, Israel bombed a hospital in Gaza, killing 5 journalists. At least 244 journalists have been killed since the beginning of the war. Since Israel doesn’t allow international news agencies into Gaza, these journalists are the only way the outside world knows what is happening.

Cosplay Kristi Noem is furious that Seattle-Tacoma and Portland airports won’t play her taxpayer-funded blame-Democrats video. Imagine thinking airport security lines should double as campaign rallies. Sorry Kristi, democracy doesn’t take propaganda orders.
