A First Lady who lied about having a college degree on her immigration application, who is married to someone who rapes children and arrests his political opponents, and has a "back door channel" to an evil despot who kidnaps children and assassinates his political opponents.

Incredible.

The President seems unwell. From his physical symptoms to his visible cognitive decline, the American people deserve clear answers about his ability to serve. I’ve formally called on the White House Physician to provide transparency and the truth about President Trump’s health.

🚨 ANTI-ITALIAN DISCRIMINATION ALERT 🚨

Opinion: Christian nationalists could decide tomorrow I'm no longer white

Christian nationalists are trying to tear apart the very social fabric woven by WWII that allowed my Italian family to be seen as white and Christian.

AI companies are spending billions on deals with each other, which boost their value.

This has helped twenty billionaires tied to AI add $450B to their fortunes in 2025.

Meanwhile, an MIT study found that 95% of companies using AI haven't seen returns on investment.

Be warned.
