Ironic. Dr. Oz, who oversees CMS, broke the law by handing immigrants' medical records to ICE to assist their mass deportations. Oz is himself the son of Turkish immigrants. He served in the Turkish Army and is a dual citizen of Turkey and the US. You think he'd respect his roots. NO shame.

If that Brevard County Florida Sheriff kills even one protestor "graveyard dead" for throwing a "brick"; then there had better be incontrovertible evidence that something close to a real brick was thrown and there had better be at least a hospitalization as a result. If not, he is going to jail.

I opt to believe that in an alternate universe Trump is a minor slumlord that no one cares about, the US govt cares for its people at least as much as the European Union does for theirs, and that peace reigns across the globe thanks to a benevolent world order. We were so close to that universe ...

On 6/12, DHS Sec’y Kristi Noem said “We are staying here to liberate [LA] from the socialists and the burdensome leadership this governor and mayor have placed on this country and this city.” This use of military force to displace a democratically elected is the very definition of a coup.

This is the central dynamic to most of the Trump Administration’s legal strategies, including, most notably til now, the deportations to El Salvador. A law says: Under condition X, the President can do Y. Trump: I declare X is happening! So I can do Y.

I was in the economy section of a cross-country flight and Tommy Smothers was sitting close by. I asked where Dick was and he said in first class.

Genetic material shed by tumors can be detected in the bloodstream three years before cancer diagnosis, according to a study led by investigators at Johns Hopkins University. That study was made possible with federal funding. Now, many studies like this are canceled. hub.jhu.edu/2025/06/04/...

Following the announcement earlier in the week that the US was pulling some of its staff out of the embassy in Iraq, everyone's best guess as to why has come true: apple.news/Axm8hM0bsSO-...

There will never be wars when I am president, said the man who has failed on his promises to end wars, and couldn’t get Iran to a deal either after all his hot air. I have zero confidence in Trump’s foreign policy. Total failure!

Can’t right now, trying to deal with the fact that about 50 people with instant access to power and money could stop all of this cruelty virtually overnight if they wanted to.

This is both terrifying and almost certainly illegal. Coming onto private church property with no warrant, providing no identification, driving unmarked cars, and bearing arms? This is secret rendition bullshit and I will bet there's no FISA (or other) court approving it. 100% Pure dictator.
