'By contrast, as Sen. Tammy Duckworth (D-IL)—a disabled veteran and former VA assistant secretary for public and intergovernmental affairs—made clear, Collins’s request for VA in-house care, when adjusted for inflation, represents a cut in the direct care budget, which she called “an abandonment of veterans.”'

#Republicans Don’t Want to Win an #Immigration Policy Fight
They just want to sustain the image of an immigration #crisis.

From David Dayen / #AmericanProspect prospect.org:
@ddayen
“The reason is that it’s an #election year, & #Republicans have once again decided that their path to victory goes right through the U.S.-Mexico #border. Inflation & the economy were effective complaints in 2023, but they are starting to recede. Transgender rights have been a disastrously unproductive wedge issue for Republicans. But #immigration is the one area where they’ve put Joe #Biden on the back foot….”
But what really caught my eye was @ddayen's #AmericanProspect article about the judge's commentary on the state of the #aviation industry:
Why, after all, have Spirit and Jetblue been so ardent in pursuing mergers? Jetblue has had two failed merger attempts with Virgin, and this is the *third* time they've failed in an attempt to merge with Spirit.

#Israel’s Dwindling Moral High Ground
“Prime Minister Bibi #Netanyahu, whose arrogance and blunders left Israel open to the #Hamas massacre, is rapidly squandering a moment of global goodwill and moral high ground. A large majority of Israelis correctly blame Netanyahu for leaving the #Gaza border defenseless by moving most of the Israeli army to defend illegal West Bank settlers who never should have been there in the first place.”
