It simply should not be possible for the president to repeatedly claim that a major city is burning without a wall of live standups happening in that city clearly demonstrating that it is not

Public health is infrastructure. And every $1 spent on prevention saves up to $5.60 in health costs. So why does Indiana underfund it? We need budgets that reflect care, not crisis.

Every $1 spent on public health prevention saves up to $5.60 in Hoosier healthcare costs.

Tim Dillon: "If you don't see a Republican candidate in 2028 that has the values that you think matter, will you throw your hat in the ring?"

US business leaders need to find the courage to speak up against threats to the rule of law and democracy

Mute US Elites Must Find Their Voice to Support Democracy

A month ago, a lobbyist for a US military contractor messaged to ask if I would meet his boss for lunch. Because I write about defense, the CEO wanted to bend my ear about the stuff he sells.

What Thiel is saying about tax havens = what Altman is saying about copyright:

"I can't be rich unless you let me steal from you."

This is how Broligarchs differ from oligarchs of yore: the latter tried to hide their thievery; the Broligarchs trumpet their entitlement to steal as a natural right.

Mike Johnson was directed by Trump to change the name of the “No Kings “ protest to “Hate America” instead! First of all it’s not his protest so he doesn’t get to name it! This is all part of Trump’s diabolical sick evil plans to destroy this Country piece by piece City by City!

Someone opened a Bitcoin short 30 minutes before Trump’s announcement of 100% tariffs on China and closed the account with a profit of $88 mn. This is life in the Age of Trump.

Somebody my mom knows only just now discovered via my mom that ICE isn't only arresting cartel members and drug dealers, and I don't know how other than one on one conversations we're supposed to break through a right wing propaganda ecosystem that keeps people completely disconnected from reality.

The editors of the CDC’s Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report (MMWR) were apparently fired today.

The precursor to MMWR began in 1878 to address emerging public health threats rapidly.

We are not “great” without it. We are vulnerable to threats from sporadic foodborne illness to bioterrorism.

The First Lady proudly admits she has been in contact with the Dictator running our greatest enemy, who is at war with Europe, and the media is talking about the deaths of people you never heard of.

What has happened to this country?
