This ad from the far-right Heritage Foundation repeats threats made directly by Trump, Vance, and others: "Do exactly as Trump wants, or he will cut off all funding for your state."
Hopefully these types of threats, which underline that Trump is a dangerous dictator wanna-be, will backfire bigly.

The White House continues to make our work harder. They’ve:
✂️ Cut funding for transportation and education
👎 Effectively told families in poverty “you’re on your own”
❌ Presided over the longest government shutdown in history
🚨 Failed to act after Western Maryland was hit by a devastating storm.

Fox: We're seeing rising numbers of measles cases. To be honest, this is somewhat expected as we see declining vaccination rates. Unfortunately, the way things are going right now with the CDC and the current vaccination advisory committees, we're seeing even more mistrust and confusion.

We now learn that Fifa had a very specific "ask" in exchange for its "Peace Award" to Trump, with loads of gold trinkets, and that was dismissal of a criminal corruption case against senior Fifa officials. And Trump granted it. Another corrupt bargain, barely noticed (and ignored by US media).

Trump made a nearly 500-word post on Truth Social declaring it “treasonous” to question his physical health.
Maybe lashing out in an insane 9pm meltdown on social media about it isn’t the most reassuring sign that his health is doing well.

Something I learned traveling MAGA country is that this $12b farmer bailout is likely to work pretty well for Trump. If he gets million dollar checks into people’s hands they will vote for him. Makes sense, but also hearing it directly was useful data.
