One of the major drives behind the ACA for Obama was seeing his dying mother spending endless hours negotiating with insurance companies.
Obama saw it as a nightmare.
Trump thinks it's everyone's dream.

Trump: "I want the money to go into an account for people where they buy their own health insurance. It's so good. The insurance will be better. It'll cost less. Everybody is gonna be happy. They're gonna feel like entrepreneurs. They're actually able to go out & negotiate their own insurance"

Running Man is off to the races on a mad enjoyable sprint for much of the film—before a haphazard stretch of seeming reshoots/rewrites make the whole thing quickly run out of steam. Wright’s directorial flair is still there, and Glen Powell gleams with 100% star power. But the center far from holds.

Truly a legendary force in cinema to be remembered the world over. Finally seeing his performance across the whole of Human Condition was remarkable. Fire it up along with Ran, Harakiri, Sword of Doom, and High and Low, and it still only scratches the surface of what Nakadai accomplished.

The Dems every time.
This gives me a ton of hope. Wish it could’ve come out this year, but Amziah King is the kind of film that deserves 100% of a push from its distributor.
Comforting to know new distributor Black Bear would rather determine how best to market and release a difficult sell such as THE RIVALS OF AMZIAH KING rather than dump it during awards season and hope for the best.

LITERALLY HOURS. THEY COULD HAVE WAITED HOURS.
BREAKING
The 1st Circuit REJECTS Trump DOJ's request to pause a judge's order to pay up Nov's SNAP funds to the states.
The SCOTUS stay will expire within 48 hours absent further action from the justices, per its terms.

MSNBC reported Schumer's office felt that the longer that shutdown went on, the more likely it was that people would start to blame the Dems.
My kingdom for Democrats that don't govern out of fear. I've said it before and I'll say it again: The American people are far braver than their reps.

The coordinated nature of this—none are facing voters in 2026—means that either Schumer approved it or failed in his job as Senate Majority Leader to stop it.
Dems voting "no" get zero credit until they demand a change in leadership. Schumer out as Leader, Durbin out as Whip.

The average SNAP benefit per month is $177 a person.
The average ACA benefit per month is up to $550 a person.
People want us to hold the line for a reason. This is not a matter of appealing to a base. It’s about people’s lives.
And working people want leaders whose word means something to them.

This is really good to see: Miki Sherrill just put out a statement sharply criticizing the Senate Dems' pending cave in the government shutdown, ripping it as "malpractice" and a betrayal of the people who are "counting on us to fight for them." Sherrill knows what drove her victory. Wake up, Dems.

If a budget deal goes through without restoring Medicaid & ACA subsidies, they will never be restored.
That's a death sentence for millions of Americans but also to the entire republic and economy: Health care is a for-profit business generating TREMENDOUS economic activity & will grind to a halt.

So Democrats get:
1. A CR that will prevent the GOP from facing the wrath of Americans for a shutdown over the holidays
2. A coupon for one (1) meaningless ACA vote that will fail
3. An end to the illegal RIF/SNAP moves that are already before the courts
Those all seem like wins for the GOP.

It’s because they want to stop the progressive Democrat victory momentum last week in its tracks because they can raise more money as perpetual (controlled) opposition to Trumpism
If Democrats do this then the entire shutdown was pointless and a massive chunk of the momentum heading into 2026 will be lost.
How can these people be this fucking stupid?????

"A development that appeared to break the logjam: Republicans proposed that healthcare funding be provided directly to households rather than used to pay for a 1-year extension of ACA subsidies. That involves sending federal money into FSAs instead of insurance companies" www.wsj.com/politics/pol...

This is the message every Democrat needs to be screaming.
Schiff: "The president -- 'I'm going out to play golf.' One thing that is so shocking to me is that they're appealing to the Supreme Court for the right to cut off food from people. Who does that? Who works so hard to cut food from people who need it right now? The cruelty is part of the policy."
