Israel's blockade on medical supplies was always indefensible. They never really tried to defend it. They just thought no one would notice, or care, or say anything. But someone did. So now they may simply end it. Just like that. What a sick farce.

Why did six House Republicans who promised to oppose Medicaid cuts vote for the "big beautiful bill"? It could be because the bill now contains an expanded "pass-through" tax deduction that would personally benefit them. Follow the money.

100 billionaire families spent $2.6 billion in the 2024 election. 70% of these donations went to Republicans. Now, Republicans in Congress are gearing up to slash essential programs to pay for another round of tax cuts predominantly for the rich. This is what oligarchy looks like.

Takano: This bill will hurt veterans. 1.5 million veterans get their healthcare through Medicaid. They are slashing programs to try to pay for these tax cuts—except they’re not actually paying for them. It’s going to create additional deficits, which means all of the cuts are only a partial payment.
