Carville: USAID spent $41 billion the federal budget is 6 trillion. Actually comes to something like .014%. So take that and put it against the 6 trillion and see what you have done when your president is responsible for more federal debt than any president in the history of the United States.

It cannot be overstated how messed up it is that the U.S. is trying to extort an allied country, that is in the middle of a war for survival, and trying to get them to sign over their natural resources, or get cut off from military support and communication infrastructure. America is a mafia state.

This is climate arson, yes, but also the entire value proposition of Tesla, the reason for its insane stock price, is that it would end up the Amazon of electric cars: the only real game in town. Killing off non-Tesla electric car infrastructure is a gift to Musk.

So. It has officially happened. I have been officially let go from my position at CDC. I wasn’t a probationary employee. I had stellar performance reviews every year. I’ll be ok. But please understand that many worked HARD to get into these positions and were doing great public health work.

A defining policy battle is about to come to a head in this country. The Republican budget will force everyone - especially Congress and the White House - to make plain whether they are prepared to harm the rest of us in order to fund tax cuts for the wealthiest.

"Frederick Douglass is the very best that this nation has produced. The cancelation of this parade in his honor [reflects] a deep animus toward anything that detracts from a white-centered view of American history. Yes, racism." open.substack.com/pub/kevinmle...

When the Maryland National Guard pulled out of a planned parade to honor Frederick Douglass, citing Hegseth's anti-"DEI" guidance, Trump allies complained this was a case of 'malicious compliance.' Hegseth's had two weeks to tell the Maryland Guard to go ahead. He hasn't. The racism is the point.

The Senate just voted on a simple idea: If you make $1 BILLION in a year, you don't deserve a tax handout. Democrats voted yes. Republicans voted no. Republicans are planning huge tax cuts for the rich, but they’re not the ones who need a break — working people do.
