The Kennedy Center was established and named by an act of Congress. No media outlet should call it anything different until Congress amends or repeals that Act. Trump is not a king.

January 6 was like a much dumber version of Hitler’s Beer Hall Putsch and yet a plurality of American voters were like, Yeah, let’s give that guy the nuke codes again. An absolutely world historical debacle of societal ignorance. I’ll never understand it.

Look at broader measures of unemployment—including people who want a job but aren't in the labor force or who are working part-time but want a full-time job—and the labor market is in the worst place since the pandemic

The mass expulsion of immigrants because of their religion is bad, actually, and profoundly un-American and anyone calling for it should be censured and removed from office.

One reason why Republicans won't extend expiring ACA subsidies?
Koch-backed lobby groups have spent over $1.1M pressuring GOP lawmakers to let 20M Americans' health insurance costs go up.
Money in politics is the root of our dysfunction.

The cruel irony of Republicans voting down ACA subsidies is that it will end up hurting Trump voters the most.
57% of ACA Marketplace enrollees live in congressional districts represented by a Republican.
They're selling out their own voters.

It would be nice if reporters who have regular opportunities to ask Leavitt and Trump questions developed the type of dogged curiosity about Trump’s health that they had when Biden was in office.

"The Epstein files and illegal boat strikes aren’t the only coverups taking place right now in the White House. There’s also something clearly wrong with the president’s health that the administration is trying to conceal from the public."

The first reporter to speak up, interrupt, and call Trump out to his face while he is berating, insulting and personally attacking another female reporter for no reason will be a national hero. You may lose access, but you will be a legend forever. At some point, someone has to.
