We'll soon have horrors like this again with the Musk Administration in charge. In the 1850s, New York City babies were being mysteriously poisoned. Nearly 8,000 babies a year shriveled to death from uncontrollable diarrhea. Without the luxury of advanced medical diagnostics, doctors […]

DOGE pretends to be a cost-savings mechanism. But DOGE won’t save us a dime. Whatever spending cuts this “agency” makes will be offset by tax cuts for the rich and big corporations. DOGE is simply a wealth transfer enterprise. It’s redistribution from public to private. Another grift […]

Via Rupar: Van Hollen: "Can you imagine FDR in the middle of WW2 saying to Churchill, 'you know, we're not going to continue to help you until you turn over half of your coal and mineral reserves.' That's not how you behave when you want to support a friend who's under attack by an […]
