House Republicans are preparing a budget package that calls for $2 trillion in cuts to Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid. That’s TRILLION. With a T.

NPR reports that the RFK Jr.-led CDC has halted the "Wild to Mild" flu vaccination campaign that promotes flu shots by emphasizing their role in reducing symptoms and severe illness The decision to pull the campaign comes as flu hospitalizations hit a 15-year high, with 50,000 admissions in a week

Musk didn't invent Tesla,... he bought it. Musk didn't invent SpaceX,... he bought it. Musk didn't invent Starlink,... he bought it. Musk didn't invent Twitter,... he bought it. Musk didn't invent Trump,... he bought him.

WTF??? Trump has placed a ban on Julianne Moore’s children’s book ‘Freckleface Strawberry’ for being related to DEI. It’s about a little girl who dislikes her freckles but eventually learns to live with them when she realizes that she is differen

This is not a normal person 👇

On Wednesday, Judge Amy Berman Jackson ripped Donald for unlawfully firing a top government watchdog, and ordered they be reinstated—at least for now. In a scathing footnote of the order, the Judge wrote: “It's as if the bull in the china shop looked back over his shoulder and said, ‘What a mess!’”

Measles requires 95% vaccination rates for herd immunity. It has a 16.2% case fatality rate for unvaccinated children under 5 years and 24% for children under 9 months (who are unable to be vaccinated). 30% of the survivors experience severe complications like blindness, deafness, or encephalitis.

Yes he is.

So after promising to focus on safety, they’ve gotten right down to work… on gender terminology?

Kamala Harris was not planning an ethnic cleansing to pave the way for golf course courses… Both sides were never the same.

When one party must obey laws and the other does not, that’s what you call a one-party state. Fascism. Communism. Dictatorship. A slave state. The idea that old norms apply is out the window, thanks to this madman. Like it or not, we're in the midst of a Constitutional crisis.

USAid offices worldwide have been ordered to shut down and thousands of staff members told to return to the US by this weekend. These are people who’ve built lives and families in the countries that they help.

The DEI caused the plane crash narrative is a distraction. The tariffs are a distraction. Whatever insane nonsense Trump spews that the media will chase like cats chasing a laser light is a distraction. The only story that counts right now is the wholesale hijacking of control of the US government.

At what point will Republicans acknowledge that this whole government eradication is insane? They realize that it is going to result in thousands of THEIR constituents out of work, right? Federal workers aren’t just in DC

Lesson for this Trump tariff shakedown bullshit is that you can call him up and say "well okay, we'll do [list of things we're already doing], that's a really good idea" and he will take that as a win. It's like putting a blanket over a budgie's cage

Raskin: "Elon Musk, you may have illegally seized power over the financial payments systems of the Treasury, but you don't control the money of the American people. The US Congress does that under Article 1 of the Constitution ... we don't have a fourth branch of government called 'Elon Musk'"

Are you now or have you ever been associated with any effort on behalf of, or even discussion that touches on, diversity, equity, or inclusion? How is an affirmative answer to this question in any way a lawful or legitimate ground for firing a civil servant? www.washingtonpost.com/education/20...

Trump bragged about "opening up the water flow" in CA, but what really happened? Reports say his administration pushed the Army Corps to drain reservoirs into already flooded farmland, blindsiding local farmers. 1/2

Another 'hair on fire' moment as Elon Musk further buries his nose into the US government: — Let’s just call these mass firings at Justice and the FBI what they are.

Leaked Memo Shows Trump Canceling Juneteenth, MLK’s Birthday, Which Is Probably Illegal: This is getting depraved and fast. The Pentagon is under orders to suspend celebrations that honor women and racial and ethnic minorities. That is pretty horrific. And it doesn’t stop there. Earlier today there…

Democratic lawmakers need to understand something: Imagine your house is on fire. Fire truck shows up. Firefighters get out. They look at the fire, then at you, and say: "Such a fire is a grave threat. This house will not sustain." And just stand there. This is how many of you are coming across.

It would be nice to see mainstream media acknowledge that every alarmist in their ranks about Trump and his henchmen has been correct, and every single "Let's all calm down" guy--a posture of blasé detachment that is consistently over-rewarded in legacy media--has called it wrong from day one.

'Incompetent as the man they work for': Analyst slams Trump aides for crippling 'blunders': A series of "blunders" in the first few weeks by some of Donald Trump's closest aides has given rise to a belief that his plan to overturn government norms will face more problems than were previously…

Get this — the first Trump administration literally had a massive DEI program in place for the FAA, from 2017 through 2020 It was titled DIVERSITY TAKES FLIGHT So if DEI caused the DC crash — then DONALD TRUMP caused the DC crash
