It’s up to the discretion of RFK Jr to define what ”medically frail” is when it comes to potential Medicaid work requirement exemptions—which may play a huge role in deciding which chronically ill and disabled people could qualify. My latest for @motherjones.com.

RFK Jr. is getting personal authority over who to kick off of Medicaid
“It's just a way of cutting people off of coverage and then blaming them for it.”

I have a trade deficit with Kroger. And Ikea. And my dentist.
THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS A “TRADE DEFICIT”—IT’S JUST CALLED “BUYING THINGS.” YOU DO NOT HAVE A TRADE DEFICIT WITH YOUR DENTIST JUST BECAUSE HE NEVER BUYS ANYTHING FROM YOU.

This is one of those "what would you do if" moments you talked about when you read Anne Frank.

We cannot be silent. If you can't be in NYC (as I can't) please try to boost and let your networks and representatives know this is not acceptable!
I'm not in NYC, but anyone who is should try to go to this if they can. Opposing the secret police disappearing people is very important.

In 1993, Alice in Chains was playing a show in Sweden. A man in started throwing Nazi salutes and trying to attack another fan.

Layne Stayley, the late lead singer for the band, invited the Nazi onto the stage ... and then clocked him.
