Go Annie!

I just think there needs to be more attention paid to the uniquely creepy, mendacious, awfulness of Speaker Mike Johnson. Don’t underestimate the depth of his ambition and breadth of what he is willing to do to never return to Shreveport.

RFK Jr’s Department of Health and Human Services has notified Moderna that it is canceling a nearly $600 million contract with the company to develop, test, and license vaccines for flu strains that could trigger future pandemics, including the dangerous H5N1 bird flu virus.

It’s PARDON PALOOZA in the Trump White House! Katie Phang reports on how Trump is using his pardon power to give grace to all the wrong people and sending the message that pardons are for purchase.

Phang: If you have to resort to deceit to get something done, that tells me what you’re doing is wrong. What’s happening is a dup-and-scoop: people are being duped into going to court, their cases get dismissed, and then they’re scooped up by ICE and deported under expedited removal.

I had to read this twice: "Cory Booker Votes To Confirm Jared Kushner’s Felon Dad as Ambassador to France." Then I remembered this: www.mediaite.com/politics/cor...

A US trade court blocked Trump's tariffs from going into effect, ruling he overstepped his authority by imposing across-the-board duties on imports from nations that sell more to the US than they buy. It said the Constitution gives Congress exclusive authority to regulate trade with other countries.

LATEST: The Trump administration is appealing a trade court ruling that blocked its global tariffs, deeming they are illegal.

Trump wants to balloon the military budget to over $1 TRILLION per year — while cutting roughly that amount from Medicaid and SNAP. Meanwhile, the Pentagon just failed its 7th consecutive audit. "Fiscal responsibility."

Today the Supreme Court cleared the way for the federal government to transfer thousands of acres of national forestland including a Native American sacred site, to Resolution Copper a mining company owned by Rio Tinto and BHP. The land holds deep spiritual significance for the Western Apache tribe.

Every year on Memorial Day, I share this video of French caretakers who take sand from Omaha Beach in Normandy, and scrub them into the letters to give them the gold coloring. They do this for all 9,386 US soldiers who died. France also gave us this land as American soil.

Do not forget why we hold Memorial Day in reverence.

Let’s hear all the outrage now about this idiot. #CNN are you listening or just prefer to dunk on Biden www.usatoday.com/story/opinio...

Convicted Felon Donald Trump insanely lashes out on Memorial Day. Katie Phang reports on how Americans died for democracy and how we are the American Resistance.

On Memorial Day, we remember the sacrifices that our men and women in uniform and their families have made to preserve our freedom. May we always strive to honor the strength and resolve they’ve shown our country.
