With the Senate failing to pass either the Democrats bill to simply extend the enhanced tax credits by 3 more years or the Republicans bill to make everything worse yesterday, all eyes turn to the Hou...

In 2023, Wyoming Secretary of State Chuck Gray oversaw a purge of voter rolls that removed over 80,000 names. If anyone was purged by mistake, they’ll now have to meet Wyoming’s more restrictive requirements to reregister.
Wyoming Is Now Requiring Would-be Voters to Document Their Citizenship
The rules were pushed by Wyoming’s ultraconservative secretary of state despite no pattern of noncitizen voting. A lawsuit warns it risks tripping up eligible citizens who wish to register.

🍃 SCOOP 🍃

President Trump is preparing to order his administration to dramatically loosen restrictions on MARIJUANA.

The order would reclassify cannabis from Schedule I — the same level as heroin — to Schedule III — the same level as Tylenol and codeine and some steroids.

The president is expected to attempt to classify marijuana similar to some common prescription painkillers and other drugs.

Q: At the end of this year, those extended Obamacare subsidies expire. What's your message to those 24m Americans who will see their premiums go up?

TRUMP: Don't make it sound so bad. Obviously you're a sycophant for Democrats. You're obviously a provider of bad news for Republicans.

This, more than anything, is what the right realized in the wake of the 2000 election: in a moment of chaos or crisis, they can do anything -- *anything*, no matter how overtly criminal or gross -- & just smooth it over later with "both sides" pablum. "Let's not fight, let's look forward," etc.

Told the scheduler at Dr's office that the MRI needed to be done this month (insurance) and that I would go anywhere in the state if necessary.
So I'm going 80 miles down to Canton for a 10am appt!
Thank goodness I used to live in Wyoming, where a 160 mile roundtrip is a weekly thing, at least!

I would really like to sit down at a long table with this ... person and play a game of how much does ___________ cost.
Everything including food, utilities, and health care.
He knows nothing.

People keep wondering why they're going after Venezuela. It's because they want to do regime change and control its oil, then use a big tract of land there to keep a tax free "network state" that looks like Dubai but operates like Rhodesia. They are saying this out loud! Believe them!

Here's the twist:

The last section of the bill would FORCE GOP LEADERSHIP IN BOTH THE HOUSE & SENATE TO TAKE UP A SIMILAR BILL NEXT SUMMER.

tl;dr: Vulnerable House GOP members are PISSED OFF at Mike Johnson & John Thune for letting them twist in the wind on the ACA tax credit issue.

Something every 2026/28 Dem should commit to is investigations of any company that did deals with Trump. A kind of forward guidance to get companies to think twice in advance of what’s coming.
Fox News will applaud this but can you imagine their coverage if President Biden hatched a secret plan to take over Fox News and revamp its programming to be nicer to him
New WSJ reporting: "During a December visit to Washington, David Ellison offered assurances to Trump administration officials that if he bought Warner, he'd make sweeping changes to CNN, a common target of President Trump's ire, people familiar with the matter said..."

That’s how it looks. After June 30, 2026, there won’t be anymore National PBS programming on the airwaves in Arkansas. And with so much content already being sold off to Netflix, Amazon, and the like, expect Passport to either be disabled, or stripped of all national programming as well.

“DOJ’s motion … itself misled victims—and the public at large—in holding out the Maxwell grand jury materials as essential to the goal of “transparency to the American public,” when in fact the grand jury materials would not add to public knowledge.”

4/ ...fourth and finally, as part of an imperious demand that if Judge Boasberg "refuses to reconsider" hearing live testimony from the guy who lied to his face, that he should issue a protective order AGAINST HIMSELF.

So no, this isn't a "motion for reconsideration." It's a threat.

For decades, Parkinson’s research has focused on genetics, on finding the rogue letters in our genome that cause this incurable disease. But researchers are looking at another unsuspecting cause: environmental factors.
Scientists Thought Parkinson’s Was in Our Genes. It Might Be in the Water
New ideas about chronic illness could revolutionize treatment, if we take the research seriously.

CONFIRMED: Eileen Higgins, a Democrat, will be the new mayor of Miami.

She'll be the city's first Democratic mayor since the 1990s. She flipped the office from Republicans, and does so easily. She leads the DeSantis-endorsed Emilio González 59/41 right now with most ballots counted.

A 5-month-old baby died, & 3 surviving children, ages 2, 4, & 5, had to be hospitalized with rickets, osteopenia, vitamin D deficiency, & significant developmental delays bc their parents put them on “alkaline diets.”

Anyone saying alkalization has health benefits is a murderous liar & a charlatan.

This week I share an anniversary with thousands of strangers. My mom died of Covid five yrs ago today; hers was one of 9,744 such deaths that week. That we know of.

It was a mass death event. It was made much worse by the man now returned to the Oval Office.

This is how I felt; maybe you did too.
