So, the House Republicans published their official budget resolution today, which, as expected, calls for gutting Medicaid/CHIP. As a reminder, nearly 80 million Americans rely on Medicaid/CHIP for their healthcare coverage...nearly half of whom are children. acasignups.net/25/01/30/psy...

Scoop --> Trump-Musk cuts just resulted in the firing of numerous top researchers at NIH's center for combating Alzheimer's, sources tell me. They predict big setbacks to fighting dementias. This cause was once championed by Republicans. Details here: newrepublic.com/article/1917...

Trump and Musk's (DOGE) funding cuts are crippling global efforts to combat child rape networks & human trafficking. Critical programs supported by USAID & the State Department are being shut down—leaving vulnerable children without protection from organized crime. #OpDeathEaters

This is hilarious. I especially like the annexation of Green Bay and the mystery Mississippi River announcement.

“The $TRUMP memecoin — a financial asset that didn't exist on Friday afternoon — now accounts for about 89% of Donald Trump's net worth.” Trump just became one of the top 25 richest people on earth. Through this. Insane, open & now normalized corruption.

The GRU, Russia’s military intelligence agency, spent years financing terrorist groups in Afghanistan to target U.S. and coalition forces. An investigation by The Insider has not only confirmed the existence of the program but also identified GRU officers responsible for its coordination.

#FunFact Elon fired Americans and hired immigrants. “Last April, Electrek reported that Tesla dismissed about 15,000 US employees, mostly in Texas and California – but then the company moved to fill those same jobs with imported labor at lower cost.” www.nationalmemo.com/elon-musk-im...

As I watch mostly blue collar workers spending much of their paychecks on lottery tickets in hopes of becoming economically successful despite statistical logic, it is in that same vane they voted for Trump who promised them wealth without any substance backing that promise.

Trump's greatest strength is legacy media's willingness to collaborate with the con by always failing to note that a con is happening. Thank you, @froomkin.bsky.social.

FWIW, here's a 1970 version of that apocryphal Thomas Jefferson prayer that Mike Johnson read in the House of Representatives today. It appeared in The Cross and the Flag, the magazine of Gerald LK Smith, a white supremacist & Christian Nationalist who was America's most notorious antisemite.
