"Like everyone who loves books, Carson felt at once awed and aggrieved that there was more to read than could ever be read, and that to choose to read one book was to forsake the chance to read a different one."

I broke down my health care budget. Whyyyy.
This breakdown won’t be true for everyone, but these price hikes are forcing many to choose between health care and other necessities. If that sounds like you, feel free to share your experience below, or message @ByChrisVazquez directly!

So WTF just happened with health care and the shutdown?
Hi it's me, Chris Vazquez! I'll be tracking the shutdown as it unfolds, while also filling you in on just how much people are likely to pay if nothing changes and the Obamacare tax credits expire. Stay tuned.

The Trump administration spent $167,000 to destroy $9.7 million worth of birth control and other contraceptives that were supposed to go to low-income countries. Imagine hating helping so much that you’d actually spend money just to make sure others don’t get help.

I don't know who needs to hear this, but whenever you fire HUNDREDS of people from a life-saving service, you can't expect it to function as well.
And whoever fires all those people without a plan is a fucking moron. Stop saying "nobody could've seen this coming," when WE ALL FUCKING WARNED YOU.

We are in receipt of the WH letter. We can confirm it is legitimate, after comparing the signature to one on a “client list” we have from an island party application in 1998.

So what seems clear from the intel, is that we probably should have reloaded the B2s, and gone for a second round. Instead the impulsive toddler was desperate to have a strong ending to the movie and declare a cease fire.

Well, this we can agree on, even Senator Thom Tillis is calling out his own colleagues: “Too many elected officials are motivated by pure raw politics who don’t really give a damn about the people they promised to represent on the campaign trail,” the North Carolina Republican wrote.

We’ve talked about “Alligator Alcatraz” before. Here are more details.
Starting the first week of July, when South Florida’s heat index regularly hits 100°F, they plan to detain up to 5,000 people in tents. No A/C. No real shelter. Just suffocating heat, choking humidity, and swarms of mosquitoes.
