We've waited over eight years for Trump to reveal his health care plan. Here it is. 10.9 million more uninsured (plus at least 4 million more from letting IRA subsidies expire).

Every college leader should take note of why Ono got rejected by UF's Board: despite his craven and public abandonment of his previous DEI advocacy, they still thought he was too "woke." The lesson: no amount of self-abasement or eagerness to sell your community down the river, will ever be enough.

"The official also said that the timing of the announcement -- occurring during Pride month -- was intentional." I've seen enough. We can confidently declare the Trump administration to be the biggest collection of assholes in American history.

Not only are parks profitable, they inject billions to local economies and welcome 300+ million people a year. This is yet more wealth extraction to private interests not just from all of us as a nation but hundreds of communities and small businesses.

Yup, and Dems need to start saying this. It's a great time to be a criminal, there's no more fed law enforcement, they're all sipping coffee cosplaying in military gear while waiting for law-abiding migrants on their way out of immigration hearings.

BREAKING. Another antisemitic attack. 🤬 A Jewish group at a peaceful event for the hostages was attacked by a man who threw Molotov cocktails while raving about “Zionists”, burning innocent people. Your reckless words incite violence. Denounce this hatred with your whole chest, America!!

I’m not an economist, but I have taught microecon to policy students, and there is an entire section in the textbook on how the private sector will under supply public goods, including under investing in basic research. It is literally a textbook example.

This is the result of Trump pulling America back from our leadership role in the world. It was always clear that China would leap on the chance to assert that status. The human project of democracy and freedom will lose a generation, at least, to one man. apnews.com/article/hong...

No no no! These university leaders don’t get it. If you negotiate one on one you don’t buy peace; you just expose the whole sector and yourselves to more shakedowns. See law firms. The only response is to unite in collective action and fight the Admin’s illegality. www.cnn.com/2025/05/31/p...

Israel tells people it's safe to go and get aid from a site Israel itself set up. Then, they kill 31 people and injure 170 who are traveling to that site to get some food. Starve people, tease them with scraps of food, then kill some along the way. It's terrorism.

What infuriates me so much about this new operation is that it is literally punishing people for following the rules and showing up to their court hearings. It is so toxic to the basic concept of following the rules. It is an operation designed by people who hate the concept of the rule of law.

Power abhors a vacuum. With the US voluntarily relinquishing its role as the world's cop, it's the obvious move for China to step in. A catastrophe and a tragedy, both of the very largest historical proportions. Truly we are living in history, and it is very, very, very bad.

There are 2 previous historical cases of countries destroying their science and universities, crippling them for decades: Lysenkoism in the USSR and Nazi Germany. The Trump administration will be the 3rd. It's not just budgets but research, institutions, expertise, and training the next generation.

So it turns out that Elon Musk is 5X the sex-crazed, drug-addled freak that Republicans claimed Hunter Biden was...and whereas Hunter played no role in his dad's administration, Musk was basically running much of the country for the past 4 months. Lovely.

In some ways an even worse indictment than the use of AI is that simply having a couple of humans read and fact check the report before release cld have mostly or entirely removed the evidence. Just sloppy dumbfucks, basically. The guys who are getting rid of all the vaccines.

In the alleged Land of the Free, your failure to have a social media account, or your decision to keep that account private, can and will be used against you. No Facebook, Insta, or X account? You're probably hiding something, according to the Trump admin, so maybe no visa for you.

After my post on vaccinating my children when they were babies, I got asked to have ‘nuanced’ convos with antivaxxers. No. I’m not platforming lies that led to the drop in vaccines, sick children with lifelong impacts and dead children. Vaccines save lives and protect health. Period.
