Republican-controlled US Congress poised to allow Obamacare health subsidies to expire
The Republican-controlled U.S. Congress is poised to allow tax credits to lapse for 24 million Americans this month, as a December 31 deadline approaches with no sign of a healthcare compromise before the Senate votes on Thursday on dueling proposals that lack enough support to pass.

Trump is dozing off in meetings. He’s wandering during ceremonies. His rants are more unhinged, his temper shorter, and he’s suddenly getting MRIs the White House can’t explain. Something is wrong — and they’re hiding it

If you stop and think about it.. there are too many people that know something about something with Epstein. If there are potentially 1000 victims there is a trail. Banks, drivers, pilots. IMO this has gotten too big to just go away.

A federal judge in Maryland has stepped in. Judge Paula Xinis ordered that Kilmar Abrego Garcia be released from ICE detention while his fight against deportation continues. Her ruling directs Immigration and Customs Enforcement to let him go immediately as his legal challenge proceeds.

The absurdity of having the same pam bondi in charge of the Federal DOJ under trump handle the epstein files, that as FL AG canceled investigations into epstein's and let him go after a payout by trump would be a ridiculous "realicrimes" novel. As real life, it's more trump admin massive corruption.

DYK women used to be prohibited from checking into most US hotels without a male chaperone?
The Hotel Figueroa in LA opened in 1926, built & operated by women for solo women travelers. Maude Bouldin was general manager (the first female hotel manager in the US & loved to fly airplanes). #history

Asian shares dithered on Monday as investors bet the farm on a rate cut from the Federal Reserve this week, yet the meeting could be one of the most fractious in recent memory with some policy makers openly arguing against an easing.
