Trump’s Pentagon purge has included the top military lawyers. Nobody should be surprised. Dictators politicize the military. Trump wants those with the biggest guns loyal to him, not the Constitution He says he’s demilitarizing it. I call BS. Orwellian to the core. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/21/u...

Elon Musk's super PAC donated $1 million to support conservative Wisconsin Supreme Court candidate Brad Schimel. Schimel's opponent, liberal candidate Susan Crawford, criticized the donation, alleging Schimel is being bought. I think — or hope! — Musk’s attempt to influence this race will backfire.

These NIH funding cuts threaten research happening in Delaware on heart disease, cancer, diabetes, stroke recovery, & more. This is what this administration is focused on. Not lowering your household costs.

Donald Trump is a Russian asset; it no longer matters if it’s witting or unwitting. He routinely spreads disinformation that originates in the Kremlin and the FSB, and does it to hurt America and our friends. If you support Trump, you have—morally speaking—betrayed your country.
