Very clear summary of the the Epstein issue. Nothing about the Trump and Republican’s new position adds up, unless you consider they are covering up Trump’s involvement or the fact that they have been profiting on a lie and hoax that THEY propagated.

What's in Trump's bill:
-Adds 4 trillion to the deficit
-Kicks 11 million people off health insurance
-3 million get thrown off food stamps
-Electricity goes up by 30%
-Millions of jobs could disappear
-Wealthiest see $12K a year back
-Poorest people $1600 more a year
What's in the latest version of Trump's big bill now before the Senate
At some 940-pages, the legislation is a sprawling collection of tax breaks, spending cuts and other Republican priorities, including new money for national defense and deportations.

The Robert’s court has sold out America to create a completely unworkable system to benefit a corrupt and unconstitutional Trump regime that controls Republicans in Congress like dogs on leashes. Good luck America. What a disgrace Republicans are.
Justice Sotomayor dissenting on birthright citizenship case: "The gamesmanship in this request is apparent and the Government makes no attempt to hide it. Yet, shamefully, this Court plays along. Because I will not be complicit in so grave an attack on our system of law, I dissent."

What a surprise that the maximally transparent regime would fire someone for being transparent and shining a light on the fraud being conducted on the American public.

Long COVID is now the most prevalent chronic disease in American kids, surpassing ASTHMA. Children/ teens are NOT immune to damage from covid.

"Long COVID is common, affecting up to 10% to 20% of children with a history of COVID-19."

That means ANY covid infection.

Make America Smart Again. Quit stifling science with arbitrary widespread cuts to funding without understanding what is researched, closing entire offices of government research, arbitrary suspending of advisory and grant review panels, firing career scientists, and persecuting universities.
Isn't this cool?
