What a mess! Wyoming has some of the least competitive ACA markets in the country. In places like Teton County, there has often been only one ACA insurer (Blue Cross Blue Shield of Wyoming). That lack of competition drives prices way up. This is ridiculous.

When a major media outlet openly capitulates to the political agenda of the executive branch, they are no longer part of the fourth estate.
They are state-run media.
Add Bari Weiss and CBS to the list of those who have betrayed our Republic.

Why would anyone risk themselves to go on 60 Minutes after this? How can viewers ever trust CBS News to report fairly on topics this White House is sensitive about?

Corporate media is worthless! They do not have the public best interests in mind.... They are owned & operated by right wing oligarchs who very well could be in those files that they don't want to talk about!

DOJ broke the law today by refusing to produce all the Epstein files. It also broke the law by redacting information other than to protect victims. Yet, the corporate media is acting that DOJ did us a huge favor.
Now, more than ever, help build independent, pro-democracy media. hubs.ly/Q03CbHTt0

Seriously, did anyone really expect this regime to actually follow the law when it comes releasing the Epstein files? They have never followed the law with zero consequences so I have said all along that they will release one sided information & massive redactions! #inners #lastword

This should be interesting! 🍿🍿🍿
This is how you do it.
Trump’s spiteful defamation suit against the Pulitzer Prize Board may backfire, as the latter is now demanding Trump’s psychological records, prescription medication records, and tax returns in the discovery process.

That is like arguing that a murder charge is moot because the victims is already dead...
In its response to a federal lawsuit filed by the National Trust for Historic Preservation (seeking to halt construction of Trump’s planned new ballroom) the DOJ argued that objections to the demolition of the East Wing are “moot because the demolition has already occurred and cannot be undone.”

With just 17 days until Obamacare tax credits expire, it’s now clear: Congress—and the country—are headed over the Obamacare cliff. Even if the House acts, the Senate won’t move in time.
It’s outrageous that all members of Congress have great, taxpayer-funded healthcare! Screw regular Americans!!

As Supreme Court Justice Louis Brandeis stated in 1933; “We can have democracy in this country or we can have great wealth concentrated in the hands of the few, but we cannot have both.”
Today, at a time of unprecedented income & wealth inequality, his words ring truer than ever.
