Plus: Graham Platner drops his first general election ad and opens with a Jeffrey Epstein line β€” we'll explain why that may be the worst possible move for a candidate with his baggage. Then: the Trump administration is warning 500+ hospitals to publish their prices or face fines β€” RFK Jr. and the MAHA movement call it a major milestone for patient rights and healthcare transparency.
