He is driving this country like he stole it

Trump’s grand plan to lower health care costs is to make changes to the Affordable Care Act that could increase a family’s yearly deductible to $31,000.

That’s after he let ACA subsidies expire in his big, ugly bill.

Remember: he doesn’t actually care about making your life better.

We’re 23 HBS Professors. This Is the Cost of Silence. | Opinion | The Harvard Crimson We urge business leaders to recognize that there is no conflict between their responsibilities as CEO and their responsibilities as citizens. The cost of silence is incalculable.

"We ask that the leaders of the business world in the US--some of whom it has been our privilege to teach--speak out now, act now, in defense of democracy....[T]here is no conflict between their responsibilities as CEO and their responsibilities as citizens. The cost of silence is incalculable."

CEOs standing up for democracy? The same CEOs that deny our health care, poison our food, steal our retirements and raise the price of everything? I think they would have to give a shit about people for that to happen

Republican broadside on major national monument triggers alarms Republican US Sen. Mike Lee, a leading proponent of selling off the country’s public lands, moved Wednesday to begin the process expediting an attack on the Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument...

Mike Lee, Trump, and some other Republicans are still itching to sell of our National Parks and public lands to billionaires to exploit.

The maker of the AI chatbot Claude said in a statement that it’s not walking away from negotiations, but that new contract language received from the Defense Department “made virtually no progress on preventing Claude’s use for mass surveillance of Americans or in fully autonomous weapons.”

How Orbán systematically suffocated the Hungarian media over the past 15 years Viktor Orbán has also pledged, in his annual address earlier this month, to “clear out” after the April elections media and civil society organisations deemed to threaten “sovereignty.” Fidesz already...

It's never been clear to why the rules of EU membership don't include not being fascist

What I Saw at the Battle of Minneapolis The national media has moved on. Minnesota is still under siege.
