Reproductive care is a basic human right—no matter what President Trump and Speaker Johnson say. I’m co-leading 110 Democrats in introducing a resolution to commend state and local governments who are hanging tough for women's health care as MAGA theocrats work to destroy it.

“Your kids should get less for Christmas than kids have in a communist China.”
Trump: "You can give up certain products. You could give up pencils. Because under the China policy, every child can get 37 pencils. They only need 1 or 2. They don't need that many. You always need steel. You don't need 37 dolls for your daughter. 2 or 3 is nice. So we're doing things right."

Do you realize how big a business Medicare and Medicaid is for PRIVATE insurance companies ?
That doctors are already quitting because what Medicaid and Medicare pays them is too low and the paper work is an overwhelming time and dollar suck ?
That doctors are already quitting because what Medicaid and Medicare pays them is too low and the paper work is an overwhelming time and dollar suck ?
It’s time to end medical insurance companies and move to a single payer system that covers everyone.
Leave it in the hands of the corporations and it’s nothing but a con game to siphon billions a month out of public and private coffers and into the super-yachts of the filthy rich.

I hope the Dems realize that if they extend the ACA subsidies, and take no other steps, they are giving carte blanche to the biggest insurance companies and major hospital systems to find new ways to game the system and increase costs.

Judge Dismantles Trump's Legal Argument for Deploying the National Guard
The government says 10 U.S.C. § 12406 gives the president the unreviewable, plenary power to deploy the National Guard. Judge Breyer says no. The Supreme Court will soon decide the same question.
