On May 30, a team of researchers funded by the National Institutes of Health got the word: Funding for their vaccine development program will end next year.

The estimated cost of the unnecessary troop mobilization to Los Angeles ($134M) would have funded gender-affirming care in the military for the next 26 years. The trans military ban was never about funding.

The situation in DTLA to which 700 Marines have been deployed is a couple dozen interfaith clergypersons leading a small crowd in prayer.

Republicans have included 300 MILLION in the budget for......Trump's golf trips. You heard that right. But there is no money to feed hungry kids school lunch. #TrumpsBillWillKill

Leaked internal documents have revealed that FEMA is not prepared for hurricane season. I am demanding answers because reckless cuts and political games shouldn’t come before the safety of Georgians.

Y’all— Senator Lankford admits 11 million will be kicked off Medicaid, but says they’re just “transitioning to employer-provided insurance” Republicans still don’t get it: NOT EVERY EMPLOYER PROVIDES INSURANCE Also: we shouldn’t rely on bosses to stay alive. #MedicareForAll

A 2.4 Trillion deficit and 11 million uninsured is not the Golden Age that anyone had in mind. Disgraceful.

Reuters: US HOUSE REPUBLICAN TAX-CUT AND BUDGET BILL WOULD ADD $2.4 TRILLION TO NATIONAL DEBT, CONGRESSIONAL BUDGET OFFICE ESTIMATES

It's been a rough few days for Elon Musk.

RFK Jr's "MAHA" report came out last week. It misinterpreted data, had broken links to some citations, and cited 7 articles that don't exist. That last one is a hallmark of AI hallucinations. How much of the MAHA report was AI generated? 🤔 www.notus.org/health-scien...

When Americans raised concerns about RFK Jr.'s anti-vaccine views, he said he was "not gonna take away vaccines from anybody." But now he's taking them away from millions of mommas and babies. Vaccine recommendations should be based on science, not RFK Jr.'s political agenda.

Trump's FEMA has denied North Carolina's request for FEMA to honor a Biden-era commitment to pay for 100% of debris removal costs related to Hurricane Helene.

You will not be able to afford an iPhone. You will own 2 dolls. You will work in a factory. And you will be happy about it. That is actually the MAGA platform right now. What a wild time to be alive.

I guess Apple and others better get building if they are going to have a full manufacturing infrastructure in a month. That’s totally doable, right?

I hope legacy media covers the connection between last night's memecoin dinner and this morning's social media tariff threats. He's manipulating the stock market.

The GOP’s billionaire bailout bill also eliminates Graduate Plus loans which 80% of grad students use. Thankfully there isn’t a doctor shortage in half the country or anythi… wait fuck.

Succinctly states where we are and what's happening. These three things, in addition to doing much else, are the sheet anchors of American wealth and power.

seems kinda bad that the House GOP is ordering half a trillion in cuts to Medicare now? Not Medicaid but Medicare. Is that bad?

Millions of Americans rely on Medicaid so they can see a doctor when they’re sick & rely on food assistance so their children won’t starve. But under Trump's proposed tax bill, these programs will be slashed to pay for more tax breaks for billionaires. #StopTheBillionaireBailout

Yes, the GOP budget guts Medicaid, SNAP and gives more tax breaks to the mega-rich — but it also: - Lets Big Oil buy public land to drill - 10 year ban on state AI regulations - Tax break on gun silencers - Restricts funding to nonprofits - Defunds women's health organizations

“Look, here's burial sites all over the place. These are all white farmers that are being buried,” Donald Trump said during today’s White House meeting with South Africa’s president. The image he was holding up, however, is of the Democratic Republic of Congo. www.barrons.com/news/trump-d...

Billionaire tax cuts are a policy choice. Cutting healthcare for millions is a policy choice. Cutting food assistance for children is a policy choice. Taking from the poor and giving to the rich is a policy choice. Make no mistake: Trump and the GOP are choosing to do this.

Elon’s step back from politics lasted exactly one (1) day

Don't look away, don't normalize: this is the virtually unconstrained leader of the world's most powerful country ambushing the president of South Africa with conspiracy-fueled racist propaganda promoted by his unelected billionaire maybe-appointee who has caused the deaths of children through DOGE.

“If this was done by another country, we absolutely would call this corruption,” said Kristofer Harrison, who served as a high-level State Department official in the George W. Bush administration. “Because it is corruption.”

Trump officials' showings at hearings today were disasters, but it doesn't make headlines bc the media's default assumption is that Rs are clownish rascals. But if Dems didn't know what was happening at their agencies or what habeas corpus is, it'd be front page news. This is a key media asymmetry.

Rural libraries decimated by IMLS cuts, rural hospital decimated by Medicaid cuts, red states more broadly disproportionately hurt by SNAP cuts, and FEMA cuts. Why do Dems hate rural America? Oh, wait...

Hidden from the public eye, like when he went a did an hour plus press conference at NATO, spoke at the SotU, and other public events. This makes it sound like we didn’t see him for two years. Enough! He isn’t currently president and won’t run again and the country was doing well!

If Dems don't pull their heads of the dark place they're going to keep losing, and that means America loses. Most Americans don't like the idea of science research being shut down for no good reason. If you've ever loved someone with cancer or Alzheimer's, this should infuriate you. Wake up, Dems!

66,000 tons of food are rotting away in USAID warehouses thanks to Trump and DOGE. That's enough food to feed more than a million people in the world's poorest countries for three months — including over 480,000 kids. In what world is starving children "efficient"?

The bond downgrade specifically mentioned this bill as one of the reasons.

The Big Bad Billionaire Bill betrays American families. It guts Medicaid, starving rural hospitals and leaving women & families without care. And when those hospitals close, where will pregnant women in rural communities go? All to give tax cuts to the rich. We’re fighting back.

Cue multiple op-eds and editorials in our leading newspapers questioning the President's age and fitness for off-.... oh. Wait.

My daughter’s speech therapist went out of business because Medicaid reimbursement rates were too low. We do not have Medicaid. I’m going to keep posting this until people understand that when Medicaid gets cut *everyone* loses services.

Every book published in the United States is sent to the Library of Congress. Also, if you are under 16 you cannot use the reading room or order books.

Trump just fired the three Democratic members of the Consumer Product Safety Commission. The CPSC regulates the safety of everyday consumer products. Guess who recently sued the agency and claimed that it's "unconstitutional"? Amazon. Connect the dots.
