An update on the fight over health insurance premiums:

Republicans have basically stopped negotiating. Trump is more focused on his ballroom than these cost hikes.

Later this month, Senate Democrats will force a vote on this - one last chance for GOP to do the right thing.

Ever thought about how thin human hair is?

That's about the width of the reason why Max Verstappen could win the Formula One world championship on Sunday.

Quite literally. And a plank of wood.

also we now have a “whites only” refugee policy. they aren’t trying to hide the white supremacy anymore. it’s overt and mainstream.
Exclusive: The U.S. Coast Guard will no longer classify the swastika, nooses and the Confederate flag as hate symbols.

The military service drafted a new policy that classifies them as “potentially divisive.”

Today, Trump’s lawyers will appear before the Supreme Court to argue that tariff powers entrusted by the framers to Congress should be in his sole possession and control, so he can maniacally wield them like a cudgel to extort and torment, moving markets to enrich his friends.

The president of the United States just declared war, actual military war, not a metaphorical one, on a major American city, and one governed by his political opponents.

In any other period, this would be impeachment-worthy.
