Why do people in power have to be so cruel in order to stay in power?
Have we all settled on the wrong life success metrics for too long?

Turns out ACA was a good thing for the American people and Republican lawmakers are starting to find out.

I ask myself this same stupid question every single day:
HOW IS TRUMP ALLOWED TO CONTINUE TO BE PRESIDENT?!?!?!
And how do even 30% of the population believe he is doing anything worthwhile for this country?

Trump just endorsed a post calling for the arrests of Chris Wray and Merrick Garland.
There's almost no media coverage of the sitting president supporting the arrest of a former FBI director and former Attorney General.

If this vote doesn’t happen, we no longer live in a democracy.

Urgent update.
Our bipartisan petition to force a vote on a straightforward extension of the Affordable Care Act tax credits now has 218 signatures.
Mike Johnson should bring the bill to the floor immediately.

MIKE JOHNSON: Here's the false narrative -- Democrats are pretending as though this affects everybody in the country. It affects 7% of Americans, this extended subsidy
CNBC: But we are talking 22 to 24 million Americans
JOHNSON: We're going to help 100% of Americans reduce their premiums

Desert storm: Can data centres slake their insatiable thirst for water?
Surging use of AI has led to a frenzy of construction activity to build new data centres, particularly in the U.S. Estimates put the total number of these facilities in operation worldwide this year at 6,111, with upwards of 2,000 more set to come online by 2030.

History buffs might recall that Russia actually lost a war in the early 20th century.
To Japan.
When the Treaty of Portsmouth was signed (in Kittery, ME, just across from the town of Portsmouth, NH), Russia ceded the southern half of Sakhalin Island to Japan.

I am genuinely confused by the idea that Venezuela is "stealing our Oil, Land, and Other Assets." It is batshit, but usually these things have some sort of meaning in the MAGAverse - does anyone know?

The Kremlin relies on oil to prop up its war spending and wait out efforts to achieve a just peace.
Republicans and Democrats have a new bill to change that.
Time to make clear that individuals and companies who help Russia sell oil risk losing access to the financial system.

FOX: The ACA has never been more popular. Republicans are losing on this messaging. How do you talk to Americans who say the Republicans don't have a plan?
REP. BUDDY CARTER: You explain it by explaining it's not working. When the govt has to subsidize a program, that means it's not working

The BBC is not the first media organization on the receiving end of a lawsuit from President Trump. But its position is complicated by its status as a taxpayer-funded public broadcaster and its stature as a closely scrutinized national institution.
Britain’s BBC is both beloved and maligned. Now it faces a $10 billion Trump lawsuit
U.S. President Donald Trump is suing the BBC for $10 billion over a documentary he claims was defamatory.
