HHS has eliminated 10,000 employees across agencies including the US Food and Drug Administration, the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and the US National Institutes of Health.

What could go wrong?

Second, Padilla drilled down on Noem’s audacious, unconstitutional, and unprecedented assertion that Trump was “liberating” Los Angelenos from their elected representatives. The word for that is coup.

A listless speech from a draft-dodger who has denigrated the army for nearly 80 years and degraded it since he became commander-in-chief produces virtually no reaction from the crowd. And then they sing happy birthday as if there would be a firing squad if they did not.

i'm surprised by how low energy and farcical that whole military parade situation was. I was expecting Moscow 1945 and we got Spirit Halloween instead.

Baseball's appalling free pass for gambler, tax cheat and alleged statutory rapist Pete Rose isn't just a win for Trump, who pushed for this

It's the epitome of Trump's MAGA drive to liberate sexism, racism, and all kinds of gross bad-boy behavior

In a party for the Pete Hegseths, Tate bros and all the bad boys of the world, 'Charlie Hustle' wouldn't let death keep him away.

Exposing dangers is part of the CDC

Closing departments hides problems that could be fixed or prevented

Yes, they found tesla-selfdriving problems

That's why dodgy boys want them gone!

I still can’t figure out when “we can deport you” turned into “we can put you in a hell hole prison in a third country, indefinitely, with no legal recourse.”

Forget about the legal case.

A man was wrongly deported and placed in a notorious prison with leaders of a gang out to get him.

Anyone with an ounce of basic human decency would fix the mistake and return that man to the United States

“Trump administration overrode Social Security staff to list immigrants as dead” This is a real headline and they are continuing to do this. It’s a clear abuse of power, and it’s cruel and inhumane. We are not living in normal times, and inaction will lead to further abuses of power.

Tariffs? Out of control. Prices? Skyrocketing.
Emergency powers? He’s abusing them.
And yet… not a single question about whether he’s even fit to serve.

A MUST read thread.
THREAD: Under a new law, thousands of prisoners in Louisiana have been cut off from ever getting a chance at parole.

Why?

Because an algorithm said so. 1/

Journalists: you cannot deport U.S. citizens out of their own country. Do not simply regurgitate the words of the administration if those words are inaccurate. To do so is spreading disinformation. Deportation, according to the govt itself, is for people with no legal right to be here.

Sen. Adam Schiff (D-CA):

"I'm writing to the White House to demand who knew in advance that the President was going to, once again, flip flop on tariffs. And are people cashing in? There is just all too much opportunity for people in the White House and the administration to be insider trading"
