We now learn that Fifa had a very specific "ask" in exchange for its "Peace Award" to Trump, with loads of gold trinkets, and that was dismissal of a criminal corruption case against senior Fifa officials. And Trump granted it. Another corrupt bargain, barely noticed (and ignored by US media).

MINNEAPOLIS: “All I did was step outside as a Somali American citizen, and I got chased by a masked person, assaulted, kidnapped. It was inhumane. If this is what’s happening to a 🇺🇸 citizen on camera, imagine what could happen to your loved ones.”

People keep wondering why they're going after Venezuela. It's because they want to do regime change and control its oil, then use a big tract of land there to keep a tax free "network state" that looks like Dubai but operates like Rhodesia. They are saying this out loud! Believe them!

Trump thinks farmers are failing because tractors are too complicated, not because his tariffs destroyed export markets and consolidation killed family farms. Farmers have PhDs in agronomy operating million dollar precision equipment. But sure, the problem is the ignition switch.

in other news, our grotesquely corrupt Congress just killed "right to repair" military reforms that saw massive bipartisan support and would have saved taxpayers billions of dollars
Congress quietly strips right-to-repair provisions from 2026 NDAA despite wide support
"I don't know how to interpret this, other than to say that industry prevailed in their influence over Congress," Greg Williams said.

They are eugenicists who equate virtue, health, and "good genes." They have no fear of their own loved ones dying because they think the people who matter have all three and are therefore bulletproof to infectious disease. They are malicious fools.
They are not “skeptics,” they are extremist science deniers who think that some children deserve to die

US health regulators informed senior executives at Merck, Sanofi and AstraZeneca last week that their approved protective RSV treatments for infants would face fresh safety scrutiny following concerns raised by vaccine skeptics, multiple sources familiar with the situation told Reuters.

This is a crude comparison but it underscores the point:

At full price, employer-based insurance premiums have been similar to or HIGHER than full price ACA coverage on average for years now.

With subsidies, they've also been similar WITH the enhanced tax credits.
