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?

So cool for 89-year-old blues legend Buddy Guy to be honored. Appearance in Sinners last year (and on the soundtrack). And just won Grammy for Best Traditional Blues Album.

Hey y’all.
Do you remember that incredible protest to prevent an 🧊 raid in Chinatown?
My fellow running mate, Natalia, was there.
Her scholarship has been revoked and she wants to continue her education in Social Work.
Less than $800 is needed.
Can you share/donate?

Found out about this like an hour too late. I've seen the film more than once though. 😄 I want to get a center seat in IMAX. (70mm or not)
Every 70mm IMAX screening of Ryan Coogler’s ‘SINNERS’ has sold out, crashing AMC’s website.

IDK who needs to hear this, but you're allowed to like one part of a band's discography and not the other. You don't have to know the whole history of a band to be a fan. You can just simply LIKE the music. You don't need to know names of every album or song or band member. You can just LIKE music.
