Trump ag secretary to struggling farmers: Get a job!
Prices are tanking and the trade war drags on. That's the best advice you have, Sonny Perdue?
www.motherjones.com
As a proud Minnesota farm girl, I watched my father work before dawn past dark, seven days a week ~ I’d like Sonny Perdue to explain exactly when any hard-working farmer would have time to take a second job! He basically said “Let them eat cake”!!!

Pete Hegseth stands behind our troops and behind Admiral Mitch Bradley - juuuuuuuust far enough behind to make sure they go to jail instead of him for the illegal strike that Pete Hegseth ordered.

Under Gov. JB Pritzker, we thankfully have utility regulators who look out for consumers rather than utility profits.

While it's the jus in bello violations that have drawn attention, not the jus ad bellum problems, the JIB issues are so big and interconnected they may take the whole campaign down anyway.
i.e., JIB might end up indirectly enforcing JAB even though there's no political will to do that directly.

Just imagining how much better it would be if ALL news stories about vaccine-preventable illnesses were illustrated with pictures of people with the disease, not pictures of needle injections. If you must show something that people will find scary & unpleasant, make it the disease, not the cure.
