Even people living above 400% of the poverty line will be affected—particularly older enrollees and those living in higher-premium locations—as they will lose their credits entirely. Around half of those who would lose eligibility are between the ages of 50 and 64. trib.al/qfg8R8v
Here’s What Happens Now That We’re Going Over the Obamacare Cliff
ACA marketplace enrollees are set to see their health insurance costs spike. But when premium tax credits expire, profound systemic shocks will be felt well beyond individual customers.

A win! A judge in Oregon ruled that the Trump administration may not withhold emergency preparedness funding from states that declined to submit updated population counts accounting for deportations, because population estimates are the responsibility of the U.S. Census Bureau; not the states.

A few years back I asked a former intel analyst who worked this file about what kind of accountability (if any) he expected for Russian atrocities against Ukrainians.

His response:

“The Israeli model.”
⚡️ Moscow explosion kills 2 Russian police officers tied to Ukrainian POW abuse, intelligence source says.

Ukrainian intelligence sources said the officers had previously taken part in Russia's war against Ukraine and were implicated in the abuse of Ukrainian prisoners of war (POWs).

When I see a democrat talking about how we have three more years of Trump, I think they’ve lost the plot. Even if impeachment or the 25th Amendment doesn’t happen, he’s going to collapse under his own weight. His body is working for the Democrats;) ⚖️🙈☯️
