the most notable thing JD Vance has done in the last five years is tell vicious racist lies about immigrants. If you think he hasn't taken a side on bigotry, you are an idiot. He's for it. He's very strongly for it.

One thing Democrats need to aim for:
Affordable healthcare that Republicans can't just destroy as soon as they win one election.
I realize, that's easier said than done.
But it's a national priority.
People's access to medical care can't wildly fluctuate from one year to the next.
Not acceptable.

Trump has repeatedly put farmers out of business. Has driven up their costs for everything, including labor. Has them begging him for welfare every year. Tells them he knows more about their business than they do. Lies to them. And they still vote Republican and send him money.

The area where ACA plans *are* genuinely more expensive than employer-based coverage is DEDUCTIBLES...but even this gap has shrunk since the enhanced tax credits were put into place in 2021....and letting them expire is forcing millions of enrollees into even HIGHER deductible plans.

This is a crude comparison but it underscores the point:
At full price, employer-based insurance premiums have been similar to or HIGHER than full price ACA coverage on average for years now.
With subsidies, they've also been similar WITH the enhanced tax credits.

If SCOTUS tears down the 14th Amendment, there can be no moderate position for ANY Democrat. If they tear it down the Constitution of the United States, SCOTUS should be deemed lawless and the Democrats must go to war with lawlessness.
The fact that SCOTUS is going to tell us who's an American and who's not is THE REASON why the Democrats must stop playing around. It's time to defend immigration as a universal good and in terms of liberty and justice for all.
Accepting rightwing lies as if they're true is how we got here.

my unifying theory of AI is that the people in Silicon Valley with the most concentration of wealth and power have never done real human activities. They've never written a note. They've never tried to cook. So they think this shit is both a miracle and something everyone who does things desires.
NEW: AI “recipe slop” is overrunning search and social. Food creators say Google’s AI Overviews and glossy fake food pics are drowning out real, tested recipes — collapsing traffic and setting home cooks up for disaster, especially this Thanksgiving.

The ACA did 3 big things in the insurance market:
1. Guaranteed access irrespective of pre-existing conditions.
2. Required benefits like maternity and mental health, and prohibited lifetime and annual limits.
3. Provided tax credits to help people afford insurance.
