I'm an avid bibliophile who has lived in several states and countries, and I'd like to think I'm more well rounded because of it. Books, Pokémon Go, and work is pretty much all I do. Occasionally, I like to take photos of my action figs and tons of my dog.

Moskowitz: We need $30 billion to extend, obviously, these healthcare subsidies, which allow Americans—Americans, not illegal—Americans, citizens, to afford healthcare.
And the president’s like, “We don’t have $30 billion, but I am going to send $40 billion to my dear friend in Argentina.”
