Congress passed a war powers resolution 110 days into a war that was supposed to end in 60 — and somehow that’s the optimistic part of the news. We break down the Iran ceasefire, the Senate’s symbolic rebuke of Trump, a disease outbreak block that connects directly to vaccine policy rollbacks, and a SCOTUS ruling on voting rights that most people missed. Then: a deep dive into unemployment insurance — where it came from, how it’s been chronically underfunded since 1983, and why $400 a week isn’t a safety net. So sit back, relax, and get ready to have a civil conversation.
