Republicans refused to renew ACA subsidies. Premiums will spike, and millions will lose coverage.
Meanwhile in Japan, universal health care is taken for granted—and it works.

"No mainstream reporter has the stomach to say, 'By the way, this administration lies all the time and we should assume this is a lie too' after every unsupported statement." They should, because it's true.

This should be the biggest story in the country right now. The sitting US President was extorting state lawmakers from his own party by threatening to withhold public money if they didn’t gerrymander for him.

Trump isn’t interested in real, lasting diplomacy where details are negotiated and worked out to give a plan the best chance of success. He just wants quick “deals” with no specifics so he can declare a “win” so he can make it all about himself with a short-term fabrication.

It’s crazy to think about the crimes we’re going to learn about after this regime ends.
We’re already hearing about Watergate level crimes every week. Imagine what will come out after it’s over.
We’re going to need a full accounting of all that’s been done in violation of the constitution.

Bullies gain power when their misconduct succeeds in causing righteous people to yield in the face of wrongdoing. That’s why voting for Trump's continuing resolution - without any protection against his health care cuts or his growing illegality - is a mistake.

Now, the question I have for the Republicans is, where do you go from here. Because, the voters are already incandescently mad at you, 10mo in.
How do you think the voters are going to feel after another 12 months of this, or 3 years of this, when you have midterms or the presidential election?
