The costs of this Iran war debacle will likely be more than the cost of extending the ACA health insurance subsidies.
If you asked Americans, which do you want: another war in the Middle East or lower health care costs at home, is the margin 90 to 10? 95 to 5?

Every senator who voted to confirm RFK Jr owns this tragedy. Every single one.

How is it possible that Kristi Noem still has this job. Imagine if you’re a family member or a shipmate of this guardsman.
