Snowstorms are actually more likely to be chilly rain in many areas. Cocoa crops around the world are failing, making chocolate drinks and desserts increasingly expensive. Global warming is even coming for Rudolph, recent research shows.
Climate Change is coming for Christmas
Stunted trees, pricey chocolate, threatened reindeer, scant snow—warming is taking a toll.

The Kansas City Chiefs are relocating from Missouri to Kansas and getting a new $3 billion stadium.

60 percent of it will be publicly funded — despite the owners boasting a nearly $25 billion net worth.

This isn't the first stadium scam we've seen recently...

Mike Johnson closed the House down early to avoid a vote on extending ACA tax credits. Nice try, Mike—all that does is give us more time to rally up support.

Let's get loud as hell, folks, and make sure every member of Congress knows where we stand:

CBS News’ editor-in-chief, Bari Weiss, pulled a “60 Minutes” segment featuring the accounts of Venezuelan men sent by the Trump administration to a maximum security prison in El Salvador, a last-minute move that has since been condemned as political.

Surprise! It’s another scam!
Trump is taking money out their housing allowances approved by Congress and giving it to them in a “bonus” so it looks like it came from him. It’s just a shell game with military pay from the ultimate con man

The president announced $1,776 “warrior dividend” checks for service members, framing them as a personal gesture of support. In reality, as Defense One reported, the funds came from congressionally allocated housing allowances.

A firm with deep ties to DHS Secretary Kristi Noem reportedly secretly received funding from a $220 million taxpayer-funded DHS ad campaign.

The public deserves answers on how the firm ended up getting this money. The DHS inspector general must open an investigation.

Trump just pardoned ANOTHER alleged white collar crook — live entertainment executive Timothy Leiweke — who was indicted by Trump's own DOJ this past July for conspiring to rig a bidding process.

Walmart and McDonald’s are among the top employers of workers who rely on food stamps.

McDonald's CEO raked in $18.2M last year — over 1,000x the company's median employee pay.

Walmart's CEO pocketed $27.4M — 930x the company's median employee pay.

See the problem?

Wow — Senators Van Hollen, Smith, Murphy, Sanders, Warren, Markey, Merkley, Heinrich have created an official internal "Fight Club."

They're challenging Schumer & Gillibrand's leadership, arguing the party is using an old, corporate-friendly playbook insufficient to take on Trump or win elections.
