The agreement to hold a vote on ACA subsidies is not a concession. It's worth literally nothing. It should be ignored when evaluating the merits of the deal
Sanders: That is a totally meaningless gesture. You can get 100 votes here and it won't mean anything because the House is not going to take it up.

Yeah but, Brad Little's #badbudgeting is on full display in Laura's article - While Idaho seeks $1 billion in one-time federal funds for rural health, the same bill is expected to reduce Medicaid spending in Idaho by $4.3 billion over 10 years not including budget cuts, right?

The administration is now APPEALING the court decision requiring it to provide full food assistance to Americans.

There’s no other way to put it: They are doing everything they can to take food away from Americans in need. Shameful.

The people who need SNAP assistance come from varying circumstances. I spoke with a woman in rural Idaho who needed food stamps after her partner died by suicide when she was 11 weeks pregnant.

And some have pregnancies complicated by gestational diabetes — which requires a strict diet to control.
Losing SNAP could mean more pregnancy complications as food insecurity grows
Without action from Congress before Saturday, millions nationwide will be cut off from access to government food assistance, including those who are pregnant or have babies and young children.That pos...

Just want to reiterate that there’s no reason for this. There is no increase in crime. There are no riots. There’s no insurrection. They’re doing this without provocation. At least until they create one.
“.. A top US military official has ordered the national guards of all 50 US states .. to form ‘quick reaction forces’ trained in ‘riot control’, including use of batons, body shields, Tasers and pepper spray, according to an internal Pentagon directive ..”

This is a real thing that a judge had to say to the Chief of US Customs and Border Protection.

🚨BIG changes happening -- ICE leadership is being purged tonight. The old guard, which prioritized targeted enforcement operations aimed at people with criminal records, is being replaced with Border Patrol and Gregory Bovino's "Midway Blitz" style.

Think things are bad now? It'll get worse.

You can see why these goons cancelled Monday's press conference on the raid.
After the FBI denied "children were zip-tied or hit with rubber bullets" in a raid in Wilder, Idaho, the FBI said no "young" children were.

The updated statement came after KIVI-TV sent FBI photo reportedly showing 14-year-old U.S. citizen in zip ties.
