Idaho is the nation’s first casualty of expiring subsidies, offering a bleak preview of 2026. While enrollment technically rose, thousands fled or downgraded as federal cash vanished. Without Congress, the Gem State proves affordability is dead, leaving families paying more for less.
Thousands of Idahoans cancel health insurance plans on exchange ahead of subsidies ending

They held a four day trial to try to convict this guy. The jury took three hours to deliberate before they returned a not guilty.

Take what you will from this, but every living person has 8,192 11th great-grandparents and 16,382 direct ancestors in total when you go back that far.
If immigrating from England makes you a "heritage American" then I guess I'm one too.

Absolutely ridiculous. So we are just to accept the #GazaGenocide is happening and say nothing. Peaceful protests in support of people being slaughtered daily didn't lead to the Bondi tragedy. Are all those who oppose the #GazaGenocide being labelled anti-Semitic now? #auspol

Yes. Well this is what Rev. William Barber has been saying on loop.
"A moral reawakening would compel us to look honestly at what we are doing to immigrants—and why," write President of @interfaithalliance.org, @raushenbush.bsky.social and @ianbassin.bsky.social for the @thebulwark.com.

Flagrant violations of international law aside, what a hilarious admission of weakness from a senator who oversees a bloated military better funded than the next three superpowers combined.

Feds launched fresh assaults on Chicago, Columbus this week. Coming up on two weeks of terror in Minneapolis. Ongoing activity around New Orleans, with the worst yet to come. LA area hit hard again this week, too. Federal task force / joint local police ops still devastating Memphis.

Article 22 is a jewelry company that repurposes Vietnam War shrapnel and battlefield debris. A portion of their profits goes to the Mine Advisory Group, which works to remove landmines still left in Laos (they've removed more than 300k mines!). I like the company's "Shard" necklace collection.

Honestly, it’s the perfect role for a VP. They’re usually the more partisan one and they usually need something to do.

Imagine the joy of Tim Walz in a hard hat, behind the wheel of a wrecking ball
There's a series of things (like the ballroom, Gulf of America) that we're going to have to *undo* the moment this guy is out of office.
And yet I can already hear future Democrat presidents saying "I'm focused on the people's work, not the knucklehead stuff" and just leave this man's shit up.

Hey so, i would encourage my fellow performers to not do any shows at the Kennedy Center until it reverts to it’s original name
Thank you for your attention to this matter

(yes I’ve already performed there so it’s an easier decision for me)
