This is the most cowardly administration in history.

New: DOGE's spending has been secret. No longer. My colleagues have uncovered it. www.propublica.org/article/doge...

We need more leaders like this! Follow Meidas Touch and Gov Pritzker!

In future generations, when your children and grandchildren look back on this moment, they are not going to ask about the price of eggs. They are going to ask you what you did. Not what you felt. Not what you paid. But what you did. And I want to be able to say I did everything I possibly could.

If we buy Trump's statement that Russia had the right to invade Ukraine because Ukraine made them mad, does this mean Canada can invade us for leaving the Paris Climate Accord? How about Jamaica invading us for that Paris Hilton reggae tune from the 1990s?

He should have received another trial. The others charged were found innocent -- self defense -- but Peltier took the fall based on a false coerced statement that he was the killer. apnews.com/article/leon...

THERE IS NO SCIENTIFIC EVIDENCE LINKING VACCINES TO AUTISM. NONE. NADA. ZIP. THE BIG DONUT HOLE. www.chop.edu/vaccine-educ...

The most shocking thing about this is that anyone took him at his word.

It seems almost unavoidable at this point that we are headed for a deep, deep recession. Just based on 200K+ federal firings & pullback of contracts, the March employment report (to be released April 4) seems certain to show bigger job losses than any month ever outside of a few in 2008-9 and 2020.

How much is Congress cutting from their $6.5 billion/year budget? Don’t you think congress can operate on say, maybe, $5 Billion? And each congressman has 18 staff, they could operate on say, 14? What about the White House?

RFK Jr. thinks that a clinical trial should be done for the entire childhood vaccine schedule. Here’s why that will never happen. 1. You can’t do a randomized trial of something that we already know is safe and effective. There would have to be a placebo group that didn’t get vaxxed. Unethical.

USDA working to rescind terminations for fired officials working on bird flu efforts: The U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) said it was working to take back the termination notices sent over the weekend to several employees who aid in the federal response efforts to the bird flu (HPAI).…

Math is hard

NEW 👀: As predicted, Judge Ho has ordered a hearing for 2 p.m. this Wednesday to explore why the DOJ has moved to dismiss the charges against NYC Mayor Eric Adams. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/17/n...

ATTN HHS EMPLOYEES: Firing notices are going out. I am in receipt of an email saying they will revoke your access as soon as you read the email that you've been fired.

“Eventually, though, if the assault on the civil service is not blocked, the heroes and the patriots will disappear. They will be fired, or denied access to the tools they need to work, or frightened by the smear campaigns.” — @anneapplebaum.bsky.social www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv...

OH MY GOD

IMPORTANT REMINDER: All six of Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s children have been vaccinated. Not only is RFK Jr. a longtime anti-vaxxer, he has made a highly profitable career of endangering the lives of millions in his dangerous crusade against vaccinations. The ascendancy of this lying profiteer…

NEW: Griffin’s legal approach: If at first you don’t succeed, change the rules of the game after the fact. www.democracydocket.com/analysis/a-s...

Never forget what russia has done to Mariupol. There can be no lasting peace in Europe without justice for this. It's either peace through strength and accountability, or more wars through appeasement and concessions. No third way.

This is just sheer brazen criminality by DOJ. Adams gets federal corruption charges dropped not because there isn’t overwhelming evidence, but because he agrees to help Homan round up migrants. And Homan says the charges will be refiled if Adams doesn’t “come through.”

I’m sure skyrocketing prices are next on his list

Canada just signed a trade deal with Ecuador so the orange juice options will increase now that Florida Oranges aren't being bought. Oasis is a Canadian brand. Minute Maid is bottled here using Brazilian oranges. I guess Florida can sell elsewhere? If anyone will buy it at this point…

Nailed it…
