Donald Trump sent more money to bail out Argentina than it would have cost to extend the ACA tax credits for just 1 year.

It’s kind of like the Epstein files. These guys spent years hyping how terrible Obamacare is and now that it turns out that they really need to extend Obamacare, they can’t.
The White House delayed its proposal for averting a spike in Affordable Care Act premiums amid harsh blowback from an array of Republican allies and lawmakers, two people familiar with the matter told CNN. https://cnn.it/4inBrdd

I cannot imagine what could possibly go wrong in trying to court-martial an astronaut and pilot decorated multiple times for valor and exceptional service, who is also a sitting senator, for correctly making the point that service members are obliged not to follow unlawful orders
Hegseth is now threatening to recall Sen. Mark Kelly to active duty in order to court martial him.

Again this is a demand for Ukraine to surrender to Russia AND ensure many further violent incursions in the future.
"Ukraine must “enshrine in its constitution” a promise to never join NATO. Ukraine must shrink the size of its armed forces to 600,000, down from 900,000. Ukraine may not host foreign troops on its soil. Ukraine must hold new elections within 100 days, a demand not made of Russia, a dictatorship"
This is not a peace plan. It is a proposal that weakens Ukraine and divides America from Europe, preparing the way for a larger war in the future. In the meantime, it benefits unnamed Russian and American investors, at the expense of everyone else.

Prosecute Robert F. Kennedy Jr. for reckless indifference to human life.
Breaking News: Robert F. Kennedy Jr. said he personally instructed the CDC to abandon its position that vaccines do not cause autism. The move underscores his determination to challenge scientific orthodoxy — in this case, that vaccines save lives — and bend the health department to his will.
RFK Jr. Says He Instructed CDC to Change Vaccines and Autism Language on Website
In an interview, Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. cited gaps in vaccine safety research. His critics say he is ignoring a larger point: Vaccines save lives.

Not only that but every time he golfs he does it on one of his own properties & charges the government, putting tax money in his private coffers. Each golf trip is a self dealing grift and an unconstitutional emolument.
Trump has played golf more often in five years than Obama did in eight, outpacing his first term by playing golf on 1 in 4 days during his second term and about 1 in 5 over the two terms. He’s on pace to play more than Obama did *in this term alone*.
