Disney's feud with DeSantis is over -- and it's donating to Republicans again
Since ending its feud with Florida's governor, Ron DeSantis, Disney has wasted no time donating to Republicans again. The Walt Disney Comany gave more than $87,000 worth of in-kind, or nonmonetary, donations to political committees, including Republican lawmakers, in the months of April and May, the Orlando Sentinel reported. That's an about-face for the House of Mouse, which had paused political donations as it brawled with DeSantis. The yearslong feud first started in 2022 when Disney execu ...

Why Biden's big move on medical debt and credit reports matters
(MSNBC) The Democratic White House has practically been preoccupied with finding ways to help consumers. The Biden administration has, among other things: Created new rules to benefit air travelers; made it easier for people to file their taxes for free; advanced a policy that would cap credit card late fees; taken steps to curtail tens of billions worth of surcharges that Biden accurately describes as junk fees, canceled $167 billion in student debt for nearly 5 million Americans through several programs; pursued policies designed to keep gas prices low. Removing medical debt from consumer credit reports is very much a part of the larger policy mosaic.
Data on Biden-era crime rates shreds Republican talking points
(MNSBC) A couple of months ago Rep. Nancy Mace released a video online presenting a rather scary vision of modern life in the United States.

In fact, CNN reported this week on new statistics from the FBI showing a 15% drop in violent crime in the early months of 2024.
Let's Talk About Trump's Gibberish
(The Atlantic) Perhaps the greatest trick Donald Trump ever pulled was convincing millions of peopleand the American mediato treat his lapses into fantasies and gibberish as a normal, meaningful form of oratory. But Trump is not a normal person, and his speeches are not normal political events. For too long, Trump has gotten away with pretending that his emotional issues are just part of some offbeat New York charm or an expression of his enthusiasm for public performance. But Trump is obviously unfitand something is profoundly wrong with a political environment in which he can now say almost anything, no matter how weird
