Ohio’s private school voucher scheme has just been ruled unconstitutional. For years, the EdChoice program has drained public school funding to pay tuition for mostly wealthy families. This is a huge win for educators and the 90% of Ohio kids who are enrolled in public schools.

Today’s ruling in U.S. v. Skrmetti is about health care. And once again, extremist politicians and judges are stepping into the doctor’s office to choose what’s best for families.

For Dems to even consider a comeback for Cuomo after his serial predation of women, is for Dems to also say that EVERYTHING they claim to believe about equality and women’s rights to be safe in the workplace was bullshit. Do they even get the level of hypocrisy?

No matter what comes of the game of ping pong between the House and Senate, the reality is clear: the GOP tax cuts to the wealthy will be paid for on the backs of children, seniors, veterans and working families who need SNAP to keep food on the table.

MAGA doesn't realize we live in a world. Tourism is down, Republicans are attacking immigrants, scientists, & foreign students. The best & brightest are leaving. RFK JR is attacking vaccines, which means diseases will spread. White supremacy remains undefeated when it comes to self-destruction.

Politicians need to be sure to frame this in concrete $ terms and not income deciles. In 2000, Al Gore noted that Bush's tax cuts would go to the "top 1%" but a poll after the election showed about 20% thought they were in the "top 1%" and another 20% thought they would be there within five years.

In other words, Trump is actually inflicting this needlessly on members of the military. We should understand it in those terms, as an act of malevolence and depravity toward them as well.
