Vought blatantly lies about Medicaid cuts on CNN, claiming "no one will lose coverage as a result of this bill"

"The sky is the ultimate art gallery just above us." -Ralph Waldo Emerson

WATCH - @jessicatarlov.bsky.social on Fox: “If that was a Democratic dogemaster who showed up with a shiner and there was a report he did so much Ketamine he couldn’t pee straight… you would be leading your show with it.”

The world needs more of this and less of most other things

RFK Jr. is reportedly going to forbid government scientists from publishing in the world’s most respected medical journals — the Lancet, The New England Journal of Medicine, JAMA, etc. It’s going to take decades to repair the damage done by this administration.

Can't help but feel we're living through an increasingly existential war between spectacle and substance with spectacle winning battle after battle after battle.

Old: Drain the swamp. New: Pardon the swamp.

Capitol Police chief blasts Jan 6 conspiracy theories: “My folks were here on Jan. 6.. They were assaulted.. Many of them were injured. They know exactly what happened on Jan. 6. For somebody to make up some story that, 'Oh, it wasn't that bad’..it is just not true” www.cbsnews.com/news/capitol...

does anyone else feel like screaming?

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 and Speaker Johnson say they’re not cutting Medicaid. David Sacks is the latest to admit they are. Because they are. By almost $1 Trillion. #TrumpsTrillionsTransfer www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

There’s obviously a lot going on right now, but two people were killed and nine others were injured during a mass shooting in Philadelphia yesterday and it barely even registered as news. In most countries, that would be a massive story. Here in America, it’s just another day.

CBS reporter Scott Pelley: This is a warning that I fear many will look back on in five or six years and think “he was so right”. If you haven’t already shared this, please do.

On Memorial Day, we remember the sacrifices that our men and women in uniform and their families have made to preserve our freedom. May we always strive to honor the strength and resolve they’ve shown our country.

Even after all this, the @nytimes continues to normalize it

🚨🚨🚨

On Memorial Day, we honor members of the military who paid the ultimate sacrifice for their devotion and service to American democracy. We will never forget their service and will honor them by following them in their constitutional patriotism however and whenever we can.

Whatever you’re doing today, please stop and take a moment to remember what today is for. All gave some; some gave all.

‘They say, We leave you our deaths. Give them their meaning.’ —Archibald MacLeish Remembering the fallen this Memorial Day, we can consider our own duty to strive so that our lives and our country are worthy of the price they paid.

From the Revolutionary war to Vietnam, Iraq and Afghanistan, so many sacrificed for what they believed this country stood for. From Alabama to NY, it didn’t matter where you came from. They suited and booted up to defend the country, and the constitution. We honor them today. It should be everyday

Make this make sense. 🤷🏼‍♂️

Malinowski: A couple of years ago, Vance gave a speech.. The title was universities are the enemy. He said explicitly, we cannot achieve anything in this country as a conservative movement unless we aggressively go after the universities. That's what they're doing right now
