Investors are spooked because Trumpโ€™s government looks increasingly unreliable. Theyโ€™re hedging against a drawn-out shutdown.

๐Ÿ“Œ Investors dumped U.S. assets overnight in favor of gold, Bitcoin, and foreign stocks as the government shutdown leaves Wall Street โ€œflying blind.โ€

Heads up: Disney/ABC put Jimmy Kimmel back on the air, but many viewers still canโ€™t see him. Why? Because Sinclair and Nexstar, which own a huge number of local ABC affiliates, are blocking his return.

Sinclair is demanding an apology and even a donation. Nexstar says it โ€œwants assurances.โ€ These are not private streaming choices. These are state-licensed stations that depend on local ad dollars, and they are using their gatekeeping power for political leverage.

๐Ÿ‘‰ What you can do:
	1.	Check your local station. See if it is owned by Sinclair or Nexstar.
	2.	Watch the ads. Write down which brands are keeping these stations afloat.
	3.	Pressure advertisers. Let them know their dollars are funding censorship.
	4.	File a complaint with the FCC. These stations are supposed to serve the public interest, not political agendas.

Remember: Disney does not control your local affiliate. Sinclair and Nexstar do. Advertisers are what keep them alive.

This is not just about one late-night host. It is about whether powerful corporations can silence national programming for political reasons.

Masked men jumped a San Bernardino family in unmarked cars, opened fire, and shattered their truck windowsโ€”all while the family was just coming home from work.

The feds later admitted it was CBP, but the family says the agents never showed warrants or IDs.

Millions of people will lose access to life-saving care due to the Medicaid cuts. This is a humanitarian crisis in the making. Congress needs to act now and repeal the cuts to prevent this disaster. #MedicaidCutsKill

Pause for three minutes and soak up the grace of this man.

Earlier today, the father of three U.S. Marines, Narciso Barranco, spoke publicly for the first time after being pinned to the ground and savagely punched by ICE agents while they arrested the landscaper outside the IHOP where he worked.

A very personal ๐Ÿงต of services the Texas Medicaid waiver has provided my son.
Services and therapies many families could not afford otherwise.

Music Therapy (especially Taylor Swift โ˜บ๏ธ) was *instrumental* (aha!) in teaching my son to walk again after his most recent neurosurgery!

Judge orders Kilmar Abrego Garcia released from criminal custody, second judge bars ICE from immediately detaining him U.S. District Judge Paula Xinis barred federal immigration authorities from immediately taking Kilmar Abrego Garcia into custody once he is released from criminal confinement in Tennessee.

Kilmar Abrego Garcia is officially free, and a federal judge blocked the Trump regime and ICE from detaining him after his release.

This is a great win for our legal system and justice.

Each victory should be celebrated along with all those fighting for our immigrant communities.

YouTube video by Casey Pregnant mom refused medical treatment by Tennessee doctors-how Virginia is helping pregnant women

A doctor in Tennessee refused to treat a pregnant woman because she was unmarried. The woman had to travel to Virginia for treatment.

Va is a refuge state for many southern women so we NEED Democrats to win down the ticket in November.

Pam Bondi is visiting Alcatraz today to announce a ridiculous plan to reopen it as a prison.

While Trump got booed on the East Coast at the FIFA Club World Cup in New Jersey, JD Vance got booed at Disney Land in California.

The odd MAGA couple is a literal shame from coast to coast.

The finding that Medicaid work requirements are ineffective in promoting work is consistent with other data suggesting opportunities to increase employment are limited, as nearly all Medicaid enrollees are already working, looking for a job, enrolled in school, caring for a family member, or have health conditions or disabilities that prevent them from working. It also reflects challenges with the design of work requirements, in which people are often disenrolled because they are unaware or confused about the policy or have trouble navigating state reporting systems.

The biggest single Medicaid cut in the Big Ugly Bill that just passed is via the national work requirement.

The goal is to enhance employment, but state level efforts, as in Arkansas, prove work requirements just drop coverage without increasing employment.

Why? Those who can work are! BUT...
