What a surprise. MAGA has been screaming for the Epstein client list for years and, FOR SOME REASON, Donald Trump’s DOJ doesn’t want to release it. They might need to do a redaction first.

The first measles death in the US in a decade -- the tragic, preventable death of a child whose parents chose not to protect them with vaccination -- should spark an immediate nation-wide campaign to ensure all children are protected against preventable diseases. Anything less is unconscionable.

US government, which self-describes itself as "deeply in debt" to justify staffing cuts across agencies, is also supporting the House budget blueprint, which would increase the deficit by more than $2.8 trillion thanks to a massive tax cut for the nation's wealthiest. www.nytimes.com/interactive/...

Of course it is true that MAGA cult doesn’t care that their news sources are lying to them about No Tax on Tips passing. Because truth is largely irrelevant when there are libs to be owned and an Orange God who needs worshipping.

Donald Trump's tax breaks for billionaires and billionaire corporations are NOT "cost free". The real cost will be health care cuts for: - New moms and their babies - Grandma in the nursing home - Kids with disabilities Threatening your health care for billionaire handouts.

Everything that we warned the American public about regarding RFK Jr. is already happening. An excerpt from an OpEd that @jimalwine.bsky.social and I published. We wrote about about what happened in Samoa with the measles outbreak there and said, simply: “The same will happen here”.

36 years after the fall of the Berlin Wall and unification of Germany, the spirit of homo sovieticus is alive in the former DDR... it just got transformed into Neo-fascism. And yes, we are aware that this is a simplification of the German problems, but there is no way unsee this corelation.

A set of countries hates us; another is bewildered/dismayed/horrified; a third group is laughing at us; and the last group is working the angles to fleece us by flattering the weak-minded senile dope who occasionally shows up at the White House to sign stuff. NOBODY respects us.
