Speaking of my own family, here's a post where I delve into our own health insurance dilemma.
Short version: If the tax credits expire, our premiums are likely going to skyrocket by an additional $15,000 next year.
Not $15,000 total: An *additional* $15,000.

Here are US military lawyers stating clearly that Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth's "kill everybody" orders are either (1) war crimes or (2) murder.
Either way, expect prosecutions in the future.

"If the U.S. military operation is not an armed conflict of any kind, these orders to kill helpless civilians clinging to the wreckage of a vessel our military destroyed would subject everyone from SECDEF down to the individual who pulled the trigger to prosecution under U.S. law for murder."

ACIP member Retsef Levi has already made a number of egregiously incorrect statements that suggest a lack of foundational public health knowledge.
He couldn’t understand why it would be a problem to get prescriptions for COVID19 vaccines.
My guess is he will lead the anti-vax propaganda at ACIP.
