Australia just recorded zero cervical cancer cases in women under 25 for the first time since records began in 1982. The amazing result of HPV vaccination.

Same problem every season, and then Cronin throws his handpicked players under the bus. What’s the constant from year to year? #UCLABasketball #UCLA
A month into the college basketball season and No. 18 UCLA is struggling to get on the same page.
Recent injuries suggest it may take a while.

The UCLA men's basketball team has sent some mixed signals early in the season, and there's reason for concern before Big Ten play starts.

Medicare for All would save $450B a year.
Every dollar spent on food stamps generates $1.50-$1.80 in economic activity.
Each dollar going to low-wage workers adds $1.20 to the economy overall.
It’s not about what this country can or can’t afford.
It’s about priorities.

It looks like ACA tax credits won’t be extended, because Trump said so.
When your health insurance costs increase, please be sure to aim your ire at Trump and his band of hateful Republicans.
This is going to be catastrophic for many.

Obamacare tax credits look likely to expire as Trump rules out an extension
Trump told Republicans not to "waste" their time on extending the enhanced ACA subsidies set to expire, saying he'd only support "sending the money directly back to the people."

Watching UCLA football and thinking…
You know that scene at the end of Braveheart where William Wallace is about to be tortured to death and Hamish and Stephen put on cloaks to hide themselves so they can sneak in and watch?
I understand those guys now.

As long as Mick Cronin is #UCLA’s basketball coach we will see the same story over and over again.
His grumpy shtick w/ ugly offense is just tiring at this point.

Here’s the thing about healthcare premiums about to skyrocket: they will never come back down, short of a complete overhaul of our system for universal healthcare. Which clearly won’t happen bc of all the money tied up between health and politics.

Oh, you simple-minded, wheezing gargoyle . . . you were very much on the ballot. You are blamed for the shutdown. You are blamed from SNAP shutting down. You are blamed for a bad economy. And numerous people interviewed last night mentioned that seeing the East Wing destroyed motivated them to vote.

Last night was a thumping from coast to coast. Across the country, voters rejected chaos and cynicism – and chose leaders who are focused on the cost of everyday life.
