Giant health insurers and their middlemen jack up drug costs and drive community pharmacies out of business. @massago.bsky.social and 38 attorneys general just asked Congress to break these giants up. I have a bipartisan bill to do just that. Let’s get it done.

Children’s squeaky plastic toys, trucks, blocks and dolls contain chemicals which are harmful to health, such as PFAS, also known as ‘forever chemicals'. This deal is a win for EU lawmakers, who have been pushing to ban PFAS in all toys sold in the bloc in the future, despite industry backlash.

As I watch Starmer tear up Labour's prospects by attacking people in poverty, abusing those who care about the living world and appeasing the ultra-rich, I feel the same sense of dislocation as I did before the Iraq War. Anyone can see the disaster coming, except, apparently, the government.

The stock portfolios of more than two dozen members of Congress outperformed the market in 2024. This isn't due to luck or skill. Lawmakers can use privileged information to trade stocks while they’re supposed to be working for you. Make no mistake, it’s legalized corruption.

Taxes are rising the fastest since 1968. Prices are skyrocketing. Families are hurting. Markets are breaking volatility records. Business uncertainty is off the charts. International demand for US treasury bonds is becoming shaky, risking total collapse. Donald Trump is golfing.

The United States is the richest country in the history of the world. But who benefits from those riches? Consider: the richest 10% of Americans hold nearly 70% of the nation’s wealth – while the bottom 50% hold just 3%. See the problem?

Fetal personhood laws that give embryos equal rights as a person are dangerous for women. They can be used to arrest someone for having an abortion, a stillbirth, or a miscarriage – like what happened to Selena in Georgia. We can't let fetal personhood become federal law.

Where did all that money go? www.taxresearch.org.uk/Blog/2025/04... Hundreds of billions were supposedly wiped off the value of stock markets yesterday. I am always asked, "Where did the money go?" when that happens. And the answer is it went nowhere. Instead, that figure is a measure of lost hope.
