An artificial heart for children with congenital heart defects was almost finished. Families had waited for years it.
Then, Trump canceled billions in grants for universities — including the grant for this device.

BlackRock is seeking to buy Aligned Data Centers, a data center construction company.
It’s also going to buy AES, one of the major power providers for Big Tech data centers.
While these data centers drive up your electricity costs, wealthy financiers are going to make a killing.

Praying that the latest developments in the Middle East will lead to the real results we all hope to see: an end to the suffering and destruction, the return of all remaining hostages, and meaningful beginnings toward a lasting peace.

Apart from helping Comey's selective prosecution defense, this also means the president of the United States uses direct messages on Truth Social to communicate with cabinet officials.
I didn't know that, but we can be sure intelligence agencies all over the planet already did.

This is what social Darwinism sounds like.
In a stunning admission, Rep. Mike Collins (R-GA) says Republicans' real goal is to kick seniors and the disabled off Social Security:
"Get off of Social Security. Get back into the workforce."

Phang: It’s time for federal judges to acknowledge that they have lifetime appointments—and that should give them the courage to uphold the rule of law, but also to put some damn teeth into the court orders they’re issuing.
it’s time that we start seeing action from the judiciary.

How are Republicans planning to pay for their latest round of tax cuts for the rich?
By kicking millions off health care and gutting the social safety net.
But that's not all.
They also plan to sell off public land and water to Big Oil.
Trickle down economics on steroids.

It's been 2 days and Mike Lawler is still seeing local and national headlines like this.
After his 1st disastrous town hall in Rockland, Lawler thought he'd be able to control the narrative with a 2nd town hall in Westchester.
It backfired spectacularly.

Moscow just saw its largest drone attack, targeting military sites. Air defenses shot them down over residential areas—including my neighborhood, where I lived for the past 5 years. Locals rage at Ukraine—but Ukraine faces this daily. This isn’t Ukraine’s fault. It’s Putin’s. And Russia’s.
