UnitedHealth Group is preparing to shed roughly 1,000,000 Medicare Advantage members in what amounts to the sharpest retrenchment by a dominant private Medicare player in decades. The move will force older Americans across the country to scramble for new coverage.

Today, Mike Johnson will keep the House adjourned for the 94th day out of the last 106.

12 days of work in 106 days.

With full pay and benefits.

The senate has been working, so this is not about the shutdown.

It is about avoiding a vote to release the Epstein files.

In 1936, Hitler built a ballroom over his underground Führerbunker to hide construction that dramatically expanded the bunker. Sound familiar?

The legal way to do this would be to change federal grant requirements (and related federal laws).
What the White House is doing is extortion. The White House’s word is no good ( and comes with no guarantees), and their demands violate federal and state law and place universities in legal peril.

The Constitution does not specify Who must give the oath to an incoming Representative (or other official). We don’t need Mike Johnson or any other GOP protector of child rapists.

Have AOC swear in the new Rep and put all the sex offenders and accomplices in jail.

This video of Chicagoans intervening to save a man from being abducted off the streets by ICE is making the rounds on Instagram.

I wish a reporter would ask Trump why he lets Miller be president when Miller makes Trump look so terrible. Pit the narcissistic against the sociopath and let one of them take the other down.

Trump hates to be the object of humor. He understands that humor can be a more powerful antidote to tyranny than any other form of criticism.

I'm sure he'd hate it if you shared this cartoon. [Cartoon by Jon Adams/The New Yorker]

I mean, that is technically true. Trump does that a lot- causes a problem, then ‘fixes’ it by undoing what he did and declaring victory. His MAGA cult then calls him a ‘genius’ for fixing what he broke.
