Breaking: HHS is canceling a $600 million contract with Moderna to develop, test, and license vaccines for flu strains that could trigger future pandemics, including the dangerous H5N1 bird flu virus.

Holy shit! A federal court has invalidated Trump’s "Liberation Day" tariffs. The fascist authoritarian dictator-wannabe was warned many times he was exceeding his authority, now the entire world is laughing at him. 😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣👇

“The Worldwide and Retaliatory Tariff Orders exceed any authority granted to the President by IEEPA to regulate importation by means of tariffs,” the Manhattan federal court ruled Wednesday

Republicans against Trump @RpsAgainstTrump In a devastating loss for Trump, a federal court has just invalidated his tariffs, ruling that he lacked the authority to impose them unilaterally without congressional approval. So. Much. Winning. (Cartoon: R.J. Matson)

Following Fidel Castro’s death, Marco Rubio—a son of Cuban immigrants—condemned him as a “dictator” who “routinely” imprisoned critics” and that his death meant no justice for “political opponents” he “jailed and persecuted.” Of course we already knew Rubio stands for nothing, not even himself.

Nebraska Republican Rep. Mike Flood’s town hall got ugly when he admitted to constituents that he hadn’t read Trump’s “Big, Beautiful Bill” before voting for it. The same bill the House passed last week which will force millions of Americans off their health care coverage and food aid.
