Let us not forget that while people are scraping to buy food and health insurance Trump is busy redecorating the White House with a gilded Oval Office, a marble bathroom, and a gold ballroom.

We are always hearing that the time change is bad for our bodies. How is the time change any different from taking a trip by air to a different time zone? Is that bad for your body as well? Or is the damage negligible because someone is making money off it?

So do we think it’s just a coincidence that all the cities Trump suggested he might take over have Black mayors?

I wonder how many folks realize that picking on trans people isn't new to authoritarians.
Hitler's Nazi govt, brutally targeted the trans community, deporting many trans people to concentration camps & wiping out their community.
Authoritarians need HATE! Pass it on.

If there are any f*cking lessons learned, the media better start demanding real transparency on Donald Trump’s health, unless they honestly believe he’s 6’3”, 224 pounds, and passed his cognitive tests with flying colors.
He’s not just getting a pass; it’s a cover-up. And everyone sees it.

Boyle: It’s pretty striking that literally all Donald Trump had to do was nothing. He could sit there, watch Fox News all day, sit with the remote control, occasionally tweet, and then on weekends go down to Mar-a-Lago and play golf. But instead, he purposely went about ruining this economy.

The logic of the new argument should be shouted from every rooftop: according to DOJ, even if you are a US citizen, after they kidnap you, you would have no recourse once they illegally hand you over to any other country in the world.

When Trump said he would lower costs, we didn’t realize he meant the cost of stocks.

So, am I right? The idea in Trump’s head is to fire the scientists working for NOAA and doing research at universities, send immigrants back to their home countries, and put the scientists to work picking crops and cutting meat.
Sounds like the Cultural Revolution in China.

How true.
I think it was Navalny who said that Putin thinks of everyday Russians as "ants." The same can be said of Trump's view of everyday Americans, including his base.

Per an NIH source:
“Discussions with colleagues have suggested that if the universities all come together and raise hell about the delays to funding caused by not holding meetings, that might move the needle. From every state. There are well-funded universities in red states that will be impacted.”

I am probably totally paranoid but today I was listening to NPR while I was driving and the radio pinged, then changed the station without me touching it. This is the 2nd time in 2 weeks. Has this happened to anyone else?
