According to a new study, members of Congressional leadership perform 47% better in stock market trades than their rank-and-file peers, thanks to access to nonpublic information.
Today would be a great day to ban ALL elected officials from trading stock, don't you think?

Health insurers are jacking up premiums while raking in billions in profits.
Expiring ACA subsidies will saddle millions of Americans with massive monthly premium increases.
Is it any wonder that 63% of Americans now support Medicare for All?

NEW: Elizabeth Holmes stole hundreds of millions in a phony medical device scheme.
Now, without remorse, she's angling for a Trump pardon.
She seems like a perfect candidate. After all, he's turned self-dealing and victimization into an art form.

Pearl Harbor wasn’t a bolt from nowhere; it followed a decade of rehearsals like Spain’s civil war. Ukraine and Taiwan are today’s test ranges, and democratic fatigue plus covert propaganda are priming the next “surprise.”

Pearl Harbor in Slow Motion
The anniversary is not just remembrance. It is a pattern warning about what happens when democracies mistake exhaustion for safety while authoritarian powers rehearse the next war.

When I taught Civics, I used Supreme Court cases to trace our expansion of rights to demonstrate democratic values.
If I were still teaching Civics today, I would need to place the concepts of 'precedent,' 'stare decisis,' and 'rule of law' in the trash bin.
This SCOTUS is corrupt.

The new US National Security Strategy has a language that not just echoes but straight up copies from the language used by European far-right, notably that of Orbán and affiliated think-tanks (MCC, Danube Inst., etc.)
