It's official-- I changed my plan and it's still $700+ more a month than what I was paying last year.

Cold sweat 3 am wakeups over how to swing this as a single mom business owner with no financial support/co-parent have begun, because we can't be uninsured. All three of us have medical issues.
“Tens of millions of American consumers are poised to face vastly more expensive health care premiums unless Republicans act. Barring a breakthrough, families nationwide will soon have to choose between paying far more or going without.”

As health care consumers confront brutal choices, Trump expresses indifference
“Don't make it sound so bad,” the president said when asked about the tens of millions of Americans facing a dramatic spike in health care costs.

Kamlager-Dove: Biden put together a very restrictive plan around selling these chips to other countries. And Republicans were saying, “Hey, Biden, you’re not protecting our national security.” Fast forward to Trump, and he’s selling these things like you sell Snickers on the corner.

It's utterly insane, but statistically probably unsurprising, that there was more than one Brown student who had previously experienced a mass school shooting, including one who was actually shot, @miatretta.bsky.social.

It doesn't have to be this way.
We sadly know Zoe Weissman because of Parkland. In fact, our families are so close, that she has been there for my wife and I after Parkland and helped with our foundation Orange Ribbons For Jaime.

America, are you ok with this?

Matt Herron's wife, Jeannine Herron, 88, said that the photos going public this week were discovered from a contact sheet housed in a library at Stanford University.

The photos weren't selected for print at the time because they were blurry or included people whose names weren't as well known.

“What I’ve been feeling most is just, like, how dare this country allow this to happen to someone like me twice?” Weissman told the New York Times.
"Weissman was in her dorm room at Brown when a friend called to warn her that a shooting was under way. Her initial feelings of panic soon turned to anger, she told NBC. “I’m angry that I thought I’d never have to deal with this again, and here I am eight years later,” Weissman told NBC News."

When Republicans inevitably blame mental health and not the guns for yet another school shooting - kindly remind them that 205 of them voted AGAINST a bill to expand school-based mental health services.

This is a great piece on Trump's near-destruction of the National Labor Relations Board. (And I'm betting they don't let the Acting GC go on-the-record about anything after his performance here. Kudos to @msainato.bsky.social for a very effective interview.) www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

Looks like Red states like Iowa are quickly expanding Trump & Musk’s surveillance of civilians.

They’re tracking us by license plates: Where we go, how long we stay, who we are.

This is more than the thin edge of the wedge. This is a fascism on steroids.
