“We found this individual possessed a second, far more lethal string of words locked and loaded, and I’m terrified to think how the situation would have shaken out if he’d been able to say even one of them aloud,” said Kristi Noem theonion.com/kristi-...

"Sources said the administration is specifically considering a full termination of federal grant funding for the University of California and California State University systems." Pure vandalism. This could never happen in a country with functioning checks and balances.

Math. Not even once.

DELETED: Trump administration deleted a webpage summarizing evidence that “undocumented immigrants are arrested at less than half the rate of native-born U.S. citizens for violent and drug crimes and a quarter the rate of native-born citizens for property crimes.” 1/2

Lyft driver picked me up from UNC, turned out he was a medicinal chemistry post-doc in a building near mine, until his grant got cut last month. Worked on novel antivirals.

I'm Dr. Annie Andrews. I’m a pediatrician, not a politician. But either way I know how to handle people who are full of sh*t. Today I am announcing my campaign for US Senate to replace Lindsey Graham. Share this if you're with me. www.youtube.com/watch?v=J8wM...

Cato has published my comprehensive review of the ~240 Venezuelans the US government renditioned 2 months ago to Salvador’s notorious prison. We identified FIFTY who came legally, never violated any immigration law, but are imprisoned at the US government’s request and at US taxpayer expense.

This is major. As a reminder, DOGE stormed the USIP building in March with the help of DC Metro Police who were originally called there by building employees. Even tho, USIP owned the building, DOGE just…took it. Background: www.thehandbasket.co/p/us-institu...

Trump's big beautiful bill expands the estate tax exemption yet again. While millions will get kicked off healthcare and lose crucial food assistance, Republicans are enabling the super-rich to pass down their obscene wealth virtually tax free. We must stop this bill.

Two things about tariffs that I don’t hear in the news… 1. Tariffs across the board are higher than when Trump took office, but most talk is about how he has now lowered them. 2. Tariff fluctuations are impacting businesses, but consumers haven’t really begun to see their impact yet.

At least 27 are dead in Missouri in Kentucky after severe weather alerts were delayed overnight because of DOGE cuts. www.mesoscalenews.com/p/tornado-wa...

MUST WATCH: Holy hell. Brendan Boyle just obliterated the GOP’s Reconciliation scam live on the floor, calling out every crooked clause and profiteer-friendly loophole like a prosecutor in a murder trial. This isn’t political theater — this is war.

In case you needed another reason to eat ice cream.

I have flown in a public airliner (a Southwest jet) a few rows down from the governor of California. I don’t think a department head needs to use our money on a Gulstream jet, especially when we are cutting that money from the most vulnerable.

So that wrongly-deported guy the Supreme Court ordered returned to the US, he still hasn't been?

The Trump administration is defying the Supreme Court, arresting judges and mayors, talking about arresting congressmen, denying due process and openly musing about suspending habeus corpus too. There’s no constitutional crisis coming. It’s here.

Your daily reminder of which party is more responsible for polarization: From www.pewresearch.org/short-reads/...

"No Person holding any Office of Profit or Trust under them, shall, without the Consent of the Congress, accept of any present, Emolument, Office, or Title, of any kind whatever, from any King, Prince, or foreign State." Nothing in there says there has to be an obvious quid pro quo. Utter bullshit.

100 billionaire families spent $2.6 billion in the 2024 election. 70% of these donations went to Republicans. Now, Trump and the GOP are gutting the FEC — which enforces campaign finance and anti-corruption laws. See how this works?

Nazi Germany surrendered in May 1945. For Americans, the Second World War would rage for three more months, until VJ Day in August. But for Russians and those influenced by them, "Victory Day" falls in May. Trump follows the Russian practice, not the American.

Trump and DOGE are planning to cut nearly 7,000 jobs from the Social Security Administration while shuttering field offices. SSA staffing is already at a 50-year low. If you or a loved one have trouble getting Social Security benefits, remember who is to blame.

Walz: If you say you love freedom but you don't believe freedom is for everybody, then the thing you love is not freedom, it is privilege.

Kevin Kiley refuses to talk to his constituents about their health care and social security. Because he WON’T protect it. So, I went to Folsom and talked to them.
