She’s not wrong.

When we’re born, we have about 300 bones, but over time, we end up with just 206, because many fuse together as we grow.

And here’s a fun fact: Bone is a living tissue that constantly renews itself. Your skeleton is completely new about every 7-10 years.

Voters want a Democratic Party that fights back against the forces that have rigged the system and made their lives more difficult.

A party that comforts the afflicted and afflicts the comfortable β€”not a party that buckles and capitulates.

When will party leadership learn this lesson?

An agreement to agree to do a later vote is NOT an enforceable contract so what in the actual hell are Americans getting out of this deal??

Jonathan Braun, Felon Freed by Trump, to Be Sentenced Again in Brooklyn A Brooklyn federal judge found that Jonathan Braun had violated the rules of his release by assaulting a nanny, swinging an IV pole at a nurse and dodging tolls in luxury cars.

A felon whose sentence President Trump commuted in the final hours of his first term was sentenced to 27 months in prison on Monday after being accused of a range of criminal conduct β€” including physical and sexual assault β€” since Trump freed him. nyti.ms/3LSL8nC

I have friends and family who are SUFFERING in very real and concrete ways due to this shutdown. Caving now while extracting nothing is a betrayal of all they have sacrificed. For shame.

From street marches to court battles to the ballot box - we’ve challenged the power of this exceptionally unpopular president.

The lesson from each success we've had is that we need to ramp the political pressure up, always up, not back down, now more than ever.

Insulin's High Cost Leads To Lethal Rationing Alec Raeshawn Smith was 23 when diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes and 26 when he died. He couldn't afford $1,300 per month for his insulin and other diabetes supplies, so he tried to stretch the doses.

Before ACA, many Americans couldn’t afford insurance

Alex Smith was a diabetic who got kicked off his Mom’s insurance at 26

He made 35k a year which was β€œtoo much” for Medicaid, but not nearly enough to cover insurance premiums

He had to ration his insulin & died a month after losing insurance

🚨🚨🚨

Trump is openly defying multiple court orders and withholding food from 42 million Americans, mere hours after the USDA sent guidance to the states.

The incompetence is staggering.

His threat is illegal, immoral, and only causing more chaos and anxiety for food banks and hungry Americans.

Yes, Trump's tariffs are raising billions -- but at a steep economic cost Trump's tariffs are raising tens of billions of dollars for the federal government. They're also costing consumers, frustrating businesses and hurting the factories they're supposed to help.

Here are 6 'Beautiful Bill' tax changes that will benefit wealthy Americans Tax season is approaching. Tax breaks that were extended as part of President Trump's "One Big Beautiful Bill" will mainly benefit high-net-worth and high-income people.

Last night was a thumping from coast to coast. Across the country, voters rejected chaos and cynicism – and chose leaders who are focused on the cost of everyday life.

Walmart and McDonald’s are among the top employers of workers who rely on food stamps.

McDonald's CEO raked in $18.2M last year β€” over 1,000x the company's median employee pay.

Walmart's CEO pocketed $27.4M β€” 930x the company's median employee pay.

See the problem?

A tweet from Robert Reich states:

The second richest man on earth is about to acquire TikTok and his family could soon own both Paramount and Warner Bros.
The third richest man owns Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp.
The fourth richest man owns The Washington Post.

Today, Mike Johnson will keep the House adjourned for the 85th day out of the last 97.

12 days of work in over 3 months.

With full pay and benefits.

The senate has been working, so this is not about the shutdown.

It is about avoiding a vote to release the Epstein files.
