Last week Trump said he likes the idea of starting a war so he can declare “no more elections” and stay in office forever.
Today he just said “a lot of people” want “a dictator.”
See where this is going?

Vaccination rates are falling - and RFK Jr.’s CDC doesn’t want you to know. They skipped their flagship vaccine coverage study and quietly posted redacted data.

DeSantis keeps claiming that everyone in the Everglades detention camp has a final order of removal but that is just not true and we know this because they detained a Mexican tourist, a DACA recipient, and even a 15 year old there, all without final orders of removal.

In addition to kicking millions of Americans off their health insurance, cutting taxes for the wealthy, and adding trillions to the deficit, other parts of Trump’s Budget are also harmful and unpopular.

One of the benefits of reading a lot of history is that you realize how many people who were ABSOLUTELY CERTAIN they were doing a lot of good were, in fact, doing a lot of harm.
