Right now, Republicans in Congress are trying to push through a bill that would put millions of Americans at risk of losing their health care.
They want to cut federal funding for Medicaid, take away tax credits that help more people afford coverage, and raise costs for working class families.

Elon Musk, DOGE and Secretary Collins are driving many of our very best critical employees out of the VA. The disastrous effect on our Veterans can't be overstated. To them, Veterans are just numbers on a spreadsheet, not human beings.
White House officials wanted to put federal workers ‘in trauma.’ It’s working.
Federal workers describe struggling with panic attacks, depression, suicidal thoughts. “Why doesn’t anyone care?”

Downtown #BuenosAires has some tremendous trees...
I was so impressed with how green it was. It's reminiscent of an old European city but in Latin America.

Some beautiful old books. They should bring back this kind of binding. With everything accessible online, a big reason to buy a physical copy is the aesthetics.
