As a direct result of the obscene actions of Russell Vought and Elon Musk in destroying USAID, we can expect “at least 9.4 million additional deaths by 2030, if the current funding trend continues.

About 2.5 million of those deaths are projected to be children under the age of 5.”

I think the thing that enrages me the most about Musk is that he presents himself as some sci-fi nerd hero doing everything possible to save humanity by going to new planets.

If your plan for saving humanity doesn’t include the people already on earth, you’re just a racist piece of shit.

Me: I want Democrats who plan to run for president to openly declare their support for full trans rights. This is my one requirement in order for me to consider voting for them.

Mayor Frey on Tom Homan saying DHS had "some issues" in Minneapolis: "'Issues' would be certainly the understatement of the century. These are people that should be alive today. Alex and Renee were standing up for their neighbors. Constitutionally protected activity was taking place."

Frey: "Obviously there's progress in that they are leaving right now, but as far as some deal was struck to get them out -- the answer is no. I think what you saw is a federal govt and administration that thought they were going to break the people of Minneapolis down."

Trump posted a video depicting the first Black president and his wife as apes and his excuse for this is that it's a riff on The Lion King, a movie that does not feature any apes. Somehow this was a one-day story and we've already moved on.

Q: What do you tell Americans who are concerned that repealing the endangerment finding comes at a host to public health and the environment based on science?

TRUMP: I tell them don't worry about it. This was all a scam. They'll have more money to spend for healthcare.

Leavitt: "Homan was able to achieve a level of cooperation w/local police to arrest left-wing agitators when they engage in unlawful behavior, which has led to a calmer situation. You are no longer seeing videos of them breaking up ICE operations are continuing. Nothing will stop President Trump."

New in PN: The Fulton County raid is part of Trump's total war on voting

"The SAVE Act is not expected to pass the Senate, but in some ways, it doesn’t really need to. It's already served the same purpose as the raid: undermining confidence in elections by amplifying debunked lies about fraud."
The Fulton County raid is part of Trump's total war on voting
And it's disturbing that a magistrate judge signed off on it.

This is an important point. Same thing for ICE surrounding polling places – they don’t really need to, they just need to sow enough fear.
