Do you wonder why you haven’t heard much about this massive TB outbreak recently? Cuz the CDC can’t hold any press conferences or issue public statements of any kind. abcnews.go.com/Health/kansa...

Mike Johnson claimed yesterday that he was reading a prayer written by Thomas Jefferson. Except it wasn't. Historians who are familiar with it say it’s not accurate to attribute it to Jefferson or to suggest he recited it daily. Clown. Show.

Donald Trump sold bibles. Jimmy Carter followed one. Trump cheated on all his wives. Carter only had one & was faithful. Donald Trump spent his post-presidency selling garbage like gold shoes and trading cards with AI images of himself. Jimmy Carter helped build homes for those without shelter.

As we depart 2024 I just want to once again say thank you to the Biden administration for its domestic policy You cannot find a historian who has any doubt that Biden was an above average POTUS or that the first Trump term ranks in the bottom five administrations in the history of the United States

They want fewer Americans going to college to create larger pools of low cost labor. They want to import for higher skill jobs, but handcuff them with work visas. It's a seismic labor grift devised by Bond villains. It's great for them. Not so good for you.

The more you know, the less likely you are to support Trump. And the right has been working on decimating news and keeping people ignorant for decades now. They are succeeding.

Other countries like Finland are vaccinating farm workers, who are the vast majority of humans getting bird flu right now. The U.S. is not vaccinating farm workers for bird flu. The idiotic rationale from U.S. health officials is that it’s because bird flu isn’t spreading between humans yet.

WHOA! THIS SHOULD BE CONSIDERED FRAUD. GOP Rep. Kay Granger (TX-12) has been missing for six months. She was just found by a reporter in a dementia care facility. Her staff and others have been keeping this a secret from her constituents. So who’s been making these posts?

“Elon will use DOGE to run the US government as effectively as his companies.” Tesla has more crashes/miles than any other car. Tesla has had to recall 700,000 vehicles. Twitter has lost 80% of its value since Elon took over. Elon is causing Twitter to hemorrhage customers.
