Have you ever “taken to the streets” over any issue? Marched in a protest? Chanted whatever some weirdo ordered you to repeat? Maybe, but probably not. The only protests or marches I’ve ever attended were one against war a friend wanted to go to and he didn’t want to drive to DC alone (plus, I’d never been to DC at that point), one I got extra credit for in college involving newspaper strike, and one that was an annual even to “protest” pot laws because we went to meet chicks and get stoned in a crowd – mostly the novelty...

Marketplace plans from the Affordable Care Act no longer feel very affordable to many people, because Congress did not extend a package of enhanced subsidies that expired at the end of 2025. Last week, the House did pass legislation to extend the expired subsidies, and negotiations have moved to the Senate. Without a deal, an estimated 4.8 million will go without coverage this year. But even without a health plan, people will still need medical care. Many, like the Sorys, have been thinking through their plan B to maintain their health. The Sorys both lost jobs in November, within days...

Newsom said he feels vindicated in opposing the proposed wealth tax after reports showed some of California’s wealthiest residents moving money and businesses out of the state, warning the measure would damage the economy and drive away investment. “This is my fear,” Newsom said in a Politico interview on Monday. “It’s just what I warned against. It’s happening.” “The evidence is in. The impacts are very real — not just substantive economic impacts in terms of the revenue, but start-ups, the indirect impacts of … people...

United Parcel Service has slashed 48,000 jobs and shuttered 93 facilities in the first nine months of 2025, marking what CEO Carol Tomé called the company's most significant strategic shift in its 118-year history. This overhaul ditches low-margin e-commerce volumes, especially from Amazon, in favor of higher-profit areas like healthcare and small business shipping, fueled by a $9 billion automation investment and a planned 50% cut in Amazon deliveries by mid-2026.

Renee Good, the Minnesota mother killed by ICE agents last week, is being investigated by the FBI for ties to activist groups.

The White House is trying to smear Good’s character to deflect blame from ICE for her death, hoping to brand Good as a domestic terrorist before presenting...

Former FBI official Bongino defends support for Israel. The podcaster, who is not Jewish, said antisemitism is behind accusations that he took $6 million from AIPAC. Dan Bongino, who announced a podcast after leaving his role as deputy FBI director, responded to online accusations that he is a “traitor” who received $6 million from the American Israel Public Affairs Committee. That’s not “even remotely true,” he said. When one exposes the liberal agenda, the “demon savages” scream back about the Jews, he wrote. “Of course, none of what’s included below in this pile of human waste’s post is even remotely...
