Carla Hayden was supposed to serve until 2026. She was abruptly removed with no clear reason given, although I think it’s obvious why.

Leavitt: "I think it's frankly ridiculous that anyone in this room would even suggest that President Trump is doing anything for his own benefit. He left a life of luxury and a life of running a very successful real estate empire for public service."

During his first term, Trump owned and profited from Trump-branded hotels, including one located just blocks from the WH, where companies and foreign governments lined his pockets.

It was an unprecedented level of presidential corruption. And it seems quaint compared to what’s happening right now.

The president's meme coin is a medium for corruption that he's happily using to pad his pockets. While he's busy self-dealing, working families are paying #TheCostOfTrump.

In an absolutely devastating ruling, the Supreme Court has allowed the transgender military ban to go into effect.

This is shocking - the ban explicitly called transgender people dishonorable for being transgender. It is as clear as day soaked in animus.

Just a friendly reminder (for no specific reason), that, if you're under 50, today is a great day to be sure that you're up to date on your Influenza, MMR, TDaP, HPV, and HepB vaccines. If you're over 50, be sure that you've also scheduled your Shingles and Pneumococcal Pneumonia vaccines.
