RFK Jr says that he’ll have a comprehensive answer of the supposed spike in autism, in our younger generations by September. Vaccines take longer than that to be FDA approved. 🤷‍♂️

Trump wants to be known as a big strong man type, but rolls over to El Salvador dictator when requesting the return of Kilmar Armando Ábrego García (a US citizen)?
Why does he only play tough guy when it comes to our allies or government proclaimed Democracies?

Pete Buttigieg breaks down DEI for everyday folks…

“The opposite of diversity is uniformity. The opposite of equity is inequity. The opposite of inclusion is exclusion.” @petebuttigieg.bsky.social

Casar: You can quickly explain Doge with just two numbers.

First: $8 million a day. That’s how much Elon Musk collects in federal government contracts.

Most of our mother-in-laws depend on their social security checks. MAGA is out of touch with the working class.
Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick: "Let's say Social Security didn't send out their checks this month, my mother-in-law wouldn't call and complain. She just wouldn't."
