[b]GOP barrels toward ObamaCare cliff as prospects dim for subsidy extensions.[/b]
“Prospects look dim for Congress to agree to an extension of ObamaCare’s enhanced subsidies, as Republicans run headlong toward a December cliff without a clear plan to break their fall. 
GOP leaders are trying to coalesce around a unified path on health care, but it’s looking increasingly likely that the Affordable Care Act’s (ACA) enhanced subsidies are not going to be part of it.”

[b]Trump’s “peace plan” for Ukraine was written in Russian first. The linguistic evidence is damning. [/b]
“The Trump administration just handed Ukraine a 28-point "peace plan" with a Thursday deadline. There's one problem nobody's talking about loud enough: the document appears to have been written in Russian first, then translated into English.
Not speculation. Linguistic evidence.”

[b]...and the initial Ukraine-Russia peace plan was hashed out over dinners in Miami –  Rubio was unaware of ‘full scope’ until the day draft leaked: report [/b]
“The original 28-point plan for peace in Ukraine was drafted by US special envoy Steve Witkoff and President Trump’s son-in-law Jared Kushner after “secret meetings” with a Kremlin insider in Miami – and Secretary of State Marco Rubio only learned the “full scope” of the proposal once it was leaked, according to a report. 
The plan, which has since been revised to 19 points, initially demanded Ukraine make heavy concessions – including giving up territory in the east, capping the size of its military and agreeing to never join NATO – while asking Russia to barely give up anything.”

“Eighteen farmworkers across the nation, along with the United Farm Workers of America and the UFW Foundation, filed the lawsuit Friday to reverse the rule, which makes it cheaper for farmers to hire foreign workers through the H-2A program by lowering wages.
The union argued in the lawsuit that the rule — which cuts wages of H-2A workers between $5 to $7 per hour — is "unlawful" and will "put downward pressure on the wages of U.S. workers" who are in similar jobs, often on the same contracts as those with visas.”
