The Smile: 12/30

Pediatricians fight back to protect kids’ health, Democrats eye big 2026 wins, and more good news!

December 30, 2025

Hi friend,

Happy Tuesday! Pediatricians across the country are standing up for children and families by suing the Trump administration to stop a nearly $12 million cut to critical federal health grants!

And there’s plenty more good news to share today: Nancy Pelosi says Democrats are poised to win back the House in 2026, Trump’s approval with working-class voters has hit a new low,  and Jimmy Kimmel is reminding us all that speaking up still matters.

Let’s dive into the good news! 💛
