It's official: Congress and Donald Trump have allowed the enhanced Affordable Care Act subsidies to expire. Millions of Americans will either lose their health coverage or face dramatically higher premiums.

And then there is this... 🙃❤️🙂

I LOVE Mary's writing, memories and thoughts as we move into 2026! Give it a read friends! 🎉 "he is smiling widely before a birthday cake with two big blue candles upon it. He’s wearing a sparkly sombrero, I can vividly remember Nick saying that “next year I’ll be a really big boy.”

President Trump's claims that Colorado's elections are rigged force Republicans like Rep Gabe Evans into a tough choice:   1) Embrace the false claim and alienate swing voters 2) Reject the false claim and anger Trump/MAGA base 3) Avoid any media outlet/forum that will ask

Amid Tina Peters fight, Trump is withholding funding from parts of Colorado that overwhelmingly voted for him

Mary Sheffield was sworn in as Detroit’s 76th mayor, becoming the first woman to hold the office in the city's 324-year history

fascinating story about Fort Morgan nearly three years after being featured on Home Town Takeover from Tracy Ross @coloradosun.com

Strange takes on Mayor Zamdani swearing his oath on the Qu’ran. It has nothing to do with church & state. The point of the oath is for the person swearing in to do so upon some text that is sacred TO THEM. Some Presidents swore in w/o any book. John Quincy Adams was sworn on a law book. His choice.

I recommend to listen & shared this report: #JackSmith

Mr. Smith goes to Washington...and brings the receipts 🤣

As of today, I am a FULL professor. I do not care much for occupational status markers. Still, it is not lost on me that only 2% of full professors are Black women. This goes beyond personal accomplishment. It is a responsibility to do as much as I can for others. That is exactly what I aim to do.

Everything good for Roberts court, as long as reporters and legal pundits think originalism and never inquire about Catholic Integralism or Leonard Leo - the man who put six Catholic Integralists on the court. Google Catholic Integralism. www.huffpost.com/entry/suprem...

We don’t need New Year’s resolutions, it’s the year’s turn to be better.

From my friend Caroline 🩷🏳️‍⚧️💜 Happy New Year! 🎇🥂❤️ As we continue to expand in every walk of life, we will not be put down or made to feel inferior or inadequate. So many of us have fought so hard for our legal recognition and will never give that up.❤️ #IAmWhatIAm #StayTrueToYourself #FightTheFight

Happy new year!! 🎊❤️🎉

For last year's words belong to last year's language And next year's words await another voice. And to make an end is to make a beginning. ~ TS Eliot, 'Little Gidding ~

Very good article and writing from Erin... 🏳️‍⚧️🩷🏳️‍⚧️

Our bodies and brains aren’t built for this. We shouldn’t be continually grieving this way, we shouldn’t be perpetually lamenting newly appearing fractures, and we shouldn’t need to constantly defend ourselves from the wounds inflicted by those leading us. johnpavlovitz.substack.com/p/we-shouldn...

I wonder why Drumbo is so interested in invading Venezuela 🤔 #Corruption #Greed

At year end, the dividing line in politics today is defined by dignity. Dignity is something that can't be taken away. It can only be surrendered voluntarily. We saw the most powerful business leaders willing to surrender dignity while everyday Americans stood tall.

DEMS WIN BIG IN IOWA: Democrat Renee Hardman wins IA State Senate SD-16 with 71.5%, a 27-point Dem overperformance from 2024. Harris won the district by 16. Hardman's victory blocks a GOP supermajority and makes history as the first Black woman elected to the Iowa Senate.

Whose inauguration?

SPEAK TRUTH TO POWER! 💙✊️ If you keep people exhausted and distracted, then they won't organize. If you keep them struggling and divided, they won't resist. The system isn't broken... it's working as designed...

Truth...

"The Kennedy Center is threatening to sue Chuck Redd to enforce the tyrannical precept that we are all, always, everywhere, the king’s performing monkeys. Are our voices our own? Or do they belong to Trump and Trump alone?" — @nberlat.bsky.social

This!

Hello friends! Dianne has created quite the Pack! 'We Want Retribution" 2026 TOUR 🍾 I have followed everyone! Hope you do too! 💙⭐️💙🌟🍾🥂👍

Sorry... why would there need to be an emergency indoor inauguration on January 20, 2029 with bulletproof glass and protections against civilian monitoring tech? Oh, that's right. Martial law is coming. I keep forgetting.
