The ACA isn't just "health care for people who don't have a conventional employer." It also disallows something that was incredibly common 20 years ago, which I fear is getting lost to generational memory: insurance companies could deny you health care for essentially any previous health problem.
I'm dubious about Amazon's commitment to keeping pre-existing conditions a thing of the past.

I just don't understand Notre Dame turning down the Pop-Tarts Bowl. If you win, you get to choose which flavor mascot will descend into the giant toaster, and then you get to eat Pop-Tarts. If I was a college football player, that's the bowl game I'd want to play the most.

I have no rooting interest in the Big Ten championship, but Ohio State must be pretty afraid of being exposed as a paper tiger to pull a dirty hit like that right off the bat. Yes, I know it was a legal hit. It was still dirty.

You can call a game tight on pass interference, you can call it loose, or you can be innovators like the Iron Bowl officials and call it both tight and loose at various times with no obvious logic

Creating a military conflict with Venezuela gives this administration a legal "hook" to invoke the Alien Enemies Act. In other words, the foreign war is being manufactured in order to facilitate court deference for its domestic mass deportation policy. It's a Stephen Miller Special.

Demolishing the East Wing of the White House before finalizing plans for what will be built above its ruins is a near-perfect metaphor for Trump's approach to economic policy. The only difference is the wrecking crew doesn’t claim the rubble is evidence of unprecedented growth.

Republicans wanted the story of the day to be the reopening of the government. But Mike Johnson is the one who decided to keep the House adjourned so the Epstein petition would be signed on the same day. He chose to make that the lead story today, nobody else. Brilliant strategy.
