So let me get this straight: you kill ‘narco‑terrorists’ in boats from Venezuela, but pardon a president convicted of moving 400 tons of cocaine into the U.S.? The war on drugs isn’t about drugs; it’s about who gets cast as expendable and who gets cast as useful.

Trump’s ballroom makes the White House look like a starter home with a mega‑garage. The architect says shrink it; Trump says no.

If lawmakers had to rely on the same stripped‑down Medicare Advantage they’re pushing, maybe they’d finally fix the system instead of breaking it

The headline figure is stark: UnitedHealth is dropping about 1,000,000 seniors from its Medicare Advantage offerings, a scale that makes this the company's largest contraction in the program in decades and one of the biggest single-year pullbacks by any insurer. Thanks GOP - this is YOU!

They spent months brawling in Congress over the Epstein files then, poof, a near-unanimous vote. What changed? Must be a scrubbed, & pre-approved for public consumption version. “Nothing up my sleeve,” as Bullwinkle used to say. Sure. Just don’t look too closely at what’s stuffed in their pockets!

The Epstein files will be the Geraldo vault all over again...hyped to the heavens, emptied to the bone. Sanitized, sterilized, and served with a, 'meh.'
