Because of Republicans' health care cuts, families will be forced to the brink of bankruptcy from one bad medical diagnosis.
That's what this shutdown fight is about.

FDA approved the abortion pill mifepristone 25 years ago.
So why is RFK Jr. raising questions about it now? He's trying to roll back abortion access nationwide.
I'll keep fighting against attempts to restrict access—because medication abortion is safe and effective. Period.

there's a panel in the new cartoon about the trump/putin meeting being comprised of trump ranting about his usual crap, and that appears to be what happened, though with the additional layer of putin knowing exactly how to push his buttons
Trump: "Vladimir Putin said something- one of the most interesting things. He said 'your election was rigged because you have mail in voting. It's impossible to have mail in voting & have honest elections.' He said that to me because we talked about 2020. He said, 'you won that election by so much'"

I don’t think it’s widely appreciated how consistently, viscerally opposed the Roberts (& Rehnquist) Court is to the rights of voters, particularly voters who aren’t white.
Add its hostility to Congress’s powers under the Reconstruction Amendments, & the Voting Rights Act becomes a prime target.

The Supreme Court knocked down one of the two pillars of the Voting Rights Act in 2013 in the Shelby County case. It has now gone out of its way to consider whether it should knock down the other, by rescheduling arguments in a case it could have resolved in June under existing precedent.
