With most of America about to get huge increases in health insurance costs as the ACA subsidies expire, maybe it’s time to start raising the subject of Medicare For All again, because this horrific “market-oriented” system is unsustainable if the US wants to continue as a civilized country.

Anyone who has participated in or attended a naturalization ceremony knows how meaningful and joyous these ceremonies tend to be. The cruelty of this is heartbreaking and enraging.

Hmm. Ghislaine Maxwell is filing a habeas petition challenging her incarceration PRO SE (no lawyers). I guess even David Markus has his limits? Incidentally, she's worried that the release of the Epstein files would be devastating to her case.

Wealth inequality is eating this country alive. Concentrated wealth is already endangering our democracy. Wealth doesn’t just beget more wealth — it begets more power.
It’s a vicious cycle that destroys our economy and democracy at the same time.

On today's Tucker Carlson show, he makes clear that he believes that the US fought on the wrong side in World War II. In particular he says that the UK was mistaken to declare war on Germany just because it invaded Poland. And he has lots of sympathy for Herr Hitler throughout.
