it's utterly wild how the Heritage Foundation president talks about other people

Exactly right. Fighting to keep premiums from spiking is good, but they should really be fighting to truly fix this broken system. #MedicareForAllNOW

Let’s talk about ICE. This post is long, but it’s worth reading to understand how to protect your right to privacy.
It might sound extreme, but everyday Americans may soon want to consider face coverings for reasons far beyond health or fashion.

Republicans declare themselves patriots, then turn around and block the paychecks of the men and women who defend America.
And what’s really wild, some of those same troops keep voting red while getting screwed over again and again.

Someone showed up with a cart of inflatables. The protest is now a dance party outside the PDX ICE facility. Federal police have mostly stood back but did unleash a toxin into the air @nbcnews.com

Jimmy Kimmel’s suspension wasn’t “cancel culture.” It was government coercion. Brendan Carr told Benny Johnson, “we can do this the easy way or the hard way,” and affiliates panicked.
Regulatory threats can’t be the answer to speech we don’t like. If we let this stand, no voice is safe.
