Today was a hard-core winter day. First, I white-knuckled it home in a blizzard, then I had to shovel 10 cm of snow off of 80+ feet of driveway. That’s also probably the most Canadian combination of measurements you’ll ever see. 😂

The White House has to "check back" about whether or not they just shut off the program that funds health care for 2 million Arizonans?
I can tell you the answer: Arizona's Medicaid payment portal has been turned off.
This is absurd.

The map shows how Alabama’s ancient coastline from 100 million years ago shaped the fertile Black Belt, which influenced so much. The region’s rich soil led to plantations, a high enslaved population, and today, it correlates with higher Black populations and Democratic votes. #geosky
