NEW: After Trump selected Kristi Noem to head up Homeland Security, she failed to disclose an $80,000 payment in the detailed accounting of her assets and sources of income that she was required to file.

Nothing brings a nation together like setting off $20 million of fireworks to celebrate kicking millions of our less fortunate citizens off healthcare and food assistance. 💥🧨🎇

“I don’t need a vaccine,” said one West Texas man. “I don’t get sick.” “It’s measles. It’s been around forever,” said another woman. “I don’t think it’s a big deal.” From our April story:

If the bill passes, it will make ICE the nation’s largest jailer, with more funding for prison camps than the entire federal Bureau of Prisons. It would give ICE enough money to have more officers than the entire FBI.

I'm a social studies teacher, not a math teacher. But even I know you can't just change the equation to make your bill look better. @BudgetHawks estimate the #BigUglyBill would add $4T to the national debt, while slashing the services millions need. www.washingtonpost.com/business/202...

As the Senate rushes in to vote on the budget bill, the Congressional Budget Office has weighed in. Not only would the cuts directly hurt people, but even the decimation of the safety net and programs to help citizens won’t offset the trillions gifted to the rich. www.crfb.org/blogs/cbo-sc...

NEW: The death shadow cast by Musk. “When U.S.-supported soup kitchens were forced to close, babies starved quietly, their mothers said, while older siblings died begging for food.” The world’s richest man did this to the world’s poorest children. Don’t ever forget.

Let this sink in.

The lie of deporting criminals is just that, a lie. Trump and ICE are simply grabbing people for not being white! share.newsbreak.com/dta5ibo9?s=i16

Icymi last month: The US government has collected DNA samples from 133,000+ migrant children and teenagers and uploaded them into a national criminal database originally built for people convicted of sex offenses and violent crimes

It's beyond heartbreaking to see GOP on verge of approving massive cuts to Medicaid, the ACA and food assistance all to give a tax cut to their wealthy donors. The GOP knows they will be killing people with their Medicaid and ACA cuts but they don't care. They should be charged with murder!

It's Sunday morning. All over America, people are filling churches and getting religion very wrong. Don't be one of them. johnpavlovitz.substack.com/p/holy-sht-h...

Guns aren’t America’s favorite tool for self-defense, they are America’s favorite tool for self-destruction.

Angus: We have American officials claiming that Canada is some kind of terrorist haven. They’re saying we’re sending massive gangs of El Salvadorans over the border. I’m sorry—have you ever visited Canada? Could you show us where these El Salvadoran gangs supposedly are?

The new members of Secretary Kennedy's ACIP began their tenure Wednesday by shifting the posture of the 60-year-old panel from support for vaccine advancement to doubt about the safety and efficacy of well-established and widely administered inoculations. kffhealthnews.org/news/article...

Would be a better idea to build "alligator Alcatraz" around Mar-a-Largo

An entire village in Dorset is facing eviction – proof that private money holds all the power in rural England Again, it’s not mentioned but Dorset is host to 3 deregulated Special Economic Zones (SEZs). @georgemonbiot.bsky.social

RFK Jr. is still trying to set vaccines back to the dark ages. He and his dangerous ignorance have to go!

Orange Daddy gonna be big mad.

🚨 ICE disappeared a woman on Wednesday night. She was grabbed by men in plainclothes and taken to an unidentified location. ICE is refusing to say where she is being held. It’s 72 hours later and not even a dedicated team of lawyers can find her. This is WRONG. We can’t let this be the new norm.

Cutting $1.5 trillion from Medicaid, food assistance, and programs working people depend on - all to give tax cuts to the rich. Go to go.aft.org/BigUglyBill and tell Congress to reject these misguided and dangerous cuts! bsky.app/profile/aft....

You will go broke betting on Collins to do the right thing. She have us the anti-Roe majority on the S Ct. and now will push the big betrayal along. Maine you must throw her out in 2026.

Mayor Gainey started requiring regular inspections, and made sure the inspections were done well, so now we know just how bad it is. :-(

The guy who got fired wasn’t the problem.

This should be a constitutional requirement, in addition to not being an insurrectionist.

Accurate

Democracy was built on the idea that each branch of government would check the other. Yesterday, that founding principle took a hit. But the fight isn’t over.
