So far the war in Iran has cost an estimated $5.5 billion.

That's roughly $1 billion per day.

$41,666,667 per hour.

$11,574 per second.

People do not want this.

They want a living wage. They want healthcare. They want to be able to afford a home. They want their basic needs met.

Exclusive: US gets first $500 million Venezuelan oil deal, holding some proceeds in Qatar The details shared with Semafor mark an initial milestone in the administration’s plan following the ouster of NicolΓ‘s Maduro.

The main bank account holding revenue from the Venezuelan oil sales is located in Qatar.

β€œThere is no basis in law for a president to set up an offshore account that he controls so that he can sell assets seized by the American military,” Sen. Elizabeth Warren.

Millions of Americans remain at jobs they hate for one reason: the health insurance they receive. That’s absurd.

Universal health care will give Americans the freedom to choose the work they want without worrying about health care coverage.

Another reason for Medicare for All.

Joint Congressional Investigation Launched in Response to ProPublica’s Revelations on Detained Americans Senators, House members and even a mayor expressed outrage and demanded accountability after our investigation detailed how at least 170 citizens have been held by immigration agents this year.

β€œOver 170 U.S. Citizens are being arrested. Why? Because they look like me,” Rep. Robert Garcia of California said, referencing our reporting. β€œOr because they are suspected to not be a U.S. citizen, or because they are suspected of crimes they have not committed.”

How can Trump do this with zero oversight? Doesn't he at least have to get a building permit?

The CDC Buried a Measles Forecast That Stressed the Need for Vaccinations The move β€” along with the CDC’s explanation β€” is a sign that the nation’s top public health agency may be falling in line under HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., a longtime critic of vaccines.

This week, as the number of confirmed measles cases rose to 483, the CDC buried a report that would’ve stressed the importance of getting vaccinated.

The move was β€œnot normal at all,” one agency staff member said.
