“I’m tempted to close by denouncing Trump’s hubris. But hubris implies a certain grandeur of purpose. Trump has no great ambitions to shape a better world or a better hemisphere. With him, it’s all boasting and bullying and lying, greed and narcissism and vanity.”

The end goal of Grok sexual harassment is to make women afraid to be visible. It’s a punishment for daring to exist in a way the perpetrators can’t control. There’s no one solution to this, because the problem isn’t just technological. It’s cultural. It’s misogyny. This is just one expression of it.

The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS), run by Oz and his boss, RFK Jr., will no longer require physicians to report vaccination rates.

Instead, they plan to start having doctors report if they’ve discussed “alternative” vaccine schedules.

GS: “Sen. Warner said you can’t argue drug trafficking charges demand invasion in one case while issuing a pardon in another…”🤔

How is this different from what we did in Panama?
The indictment doesn’t mention oil or fentanyl. Just cocaine. (After he just pardoned the president of Honduras)

The appropriate Democratic response is that the president is out of control.

You don’t need to repeat his Maduro talking points. Stop being pussies.

Any statements like this that Trump makes about ANYONE, he is PROJECTING.

That is, he is unconsciously talking about himself.

"If it wasn’t Shirley’s video, it would have been something else. If it wasn’t MN, it would have been somewhere else. If it wasn’t about daycare fraud, it would have been something else. Everything this administration does is about creating a fig leaf to justify its violent dismantling of democracy"
The blame for alleged fraud in Minnesota belongs to conservatives
Privatization and a lack of oversight creates a vicious cycle.

For those who have been led to believe that this year’s flu vaccine doesn’t work, this isn’t the case.

ER visits and hospital admissions are reduced by 72–75% in children and adolescents, and by 32–39% in adults.

In 2026 I want all of the decent people to remember one thing.

You aren’t meant to be this disciplined, this self-sacrificing to survive. The environment is supposed to support good living. We can have that. You are not a failure. That is politics.

That is all.

Millions of Americans remain at jobs they hate for one reason: the health insurance they receive. That’s absurd.

Universal health care will give Americans the freedom to choose the work they want without worrying about health care coverage.

Another reason for Medicare for All.

The U.S. government just banned five people from entering the country because it doesn’t like their speech. This ban, according to the State Department, is necessary to protect free speech.

Trump is clearly still on his quest to nab Greenland.

And for that, you can thank Ronald Lauder of Estée Lauder, the $29 billion makeup brand, who reportedly told Trump to buy the country in 2019.
