CBS paid the president of the United States millions in bribe money and now they censor news reports so it does not annoy him. I don’t know how much plainer we can put this.

Jack Smith wants to testify in public - Republicans refuse.

He wants his depo tape made public - no again.

The second strike boat video? - nope.

Epstein files law complied with? - not today.

Vote on ACA? - maybe next year.

Republicans: Hide, obstruct, lie, delay, deny.

It almost goes without saying, but this is illegal. The name "John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts" is established by law and the board doesn't have the power to change it. 20 USC 3 §§ 76h - 76s.

Ahhhh… So Trump took billions from troop housing and gave it to them as “bonuses” - Got it. A con artist to the end.

So Trump is just giving away another $2.6 billion in taxpayer money for “bonuses” that was not appropriated for that purpose by our duly elected representatives in Congress, while we are $38 trillion in debt.

Die, kids. The cuts include initiatives for catching autism early, which is super helpful in letting kids thrive — in case you think RFK Jr is serious about autism as a concern
Exclusive: The Department of Health and Human Services has terminated seven grants totaling millions of dollars to the American Academy of Pediatrics. The association has been one of the harshest critics of Health Secretary RFK Jr.’s changes to federal vaccine policy.
American Academy of Pediatrics loses HHS funding after criticizing RFK Jr.
HHS cuts key AAP grants, citing concerns about “identity-based language” and insufficient focus on agency priorities. The organization said the cuts could harm child health.

The Trump regime's clear message to foreign travelers to STAY AWAY is devastating to Americans in the tourist industry. Trump is a job killer.

Unbelievable. This would be a terrible blow to American science, writ large. It would decimate not only climate research, but also the kind of weather, wildfire, and disaster research that has underpinned half a century of progress in prediction, early warning, and increased resilience.
Exclusive: The Trump administration is moving to dismantle the National Center for Atmospheric Research in Colorado, according to a senior White House official, taking aim at one of the world's leading climate research labs.

What a heartless, soulless, embarrassment to our country.
Q: A number of Republicans have denounced your statement on Rob Reiner. Do you stand by it?

TRUMP: Well, I wasn't a fan of his at all. He was a deranged person as far as Trump is concerned.

Incredible work on a horrifying situation.

Kudos to the Brown University students who are posting continuous live updates, spaced just minutes apart, on the campus shooting. A lot of grace and professionalism under immense pressure.

From New Jersey to Minnesota, from Georgia to Virginia, from Pennsylvania to California, Democrats have been overperforming in race after race all year. And tonight we added Florida and Georgia (again) to that list with margins that should set off alarm bells for Republicans everywhere.

Trump can go to Pennsylvania, mock the topic of affordability, lie that prices are way down, but that won’t change the trajectory. Holding a rally with supporters laughing along with him about affordability doesn’t make him look any less untethered from reality & the actual struggles of Americans.

🔥 @jessicatarlov.bsky.social : “He’ll try to blame Biden, but the argument it’s all the fault of the guy out for a year is not resonating. Trump is setting our economy on fire - and not in a good way. In the dumpster fire way. The A+++ grade is obviously ridiculous. It’s a man-made crisis.”

Ossoff: "This is so much deeper than the politics. What does it say about the moral condition of this Congress that the thing that has them all tied up in knots is a very simple question: Should people's health insurance premiums go up double or triple? This is a policy choice."

Will Arnett was on Conan and told a story about how Conan dealt with the death of his parents by accusing Jason Bateman of killing them. It’s so funny.

Of course Trump would give the economy an A+ after he rigged it to enrich him, his family and billionaires...

But for the rest of America?
 
Higher utility bills.
Higher grocery bills.
Historically high mortgage rates.
And skyrocketing health insurance bills.
