And now we just ranked the third-best state for health care.

Everyone in our party says they want to start winning again, and they do—but that simply will not be possible with our current set of leaders, too many of which are asleep at the wheel, out-of-touch, and ineffective. (1/3)

DOGE is a criminal conspiracy to defraud the people of the United States
Oh dear you’re going to want to read this. Looks like DOGErs were caught exfiltrating NLRB data, likely on unions, for private (seemingly Elony) use. This is must read. What we’ve all suspected. But now details. www.npr.org/2025/04/15/n...
A whistleblower's disclosure details how DOGE may have taken sensitive labor data
A whistleblower tells Congress and NPR that DOGE may have taken sensitive labor data and hid its tracks. "None of that ... information should ever leave the agency," said a former NLRB official.

I watched Network last night. Amazingly prescient film. While it might have meant to be satire at the time, it predicts the entertainmentification of news. And the fox style of making up stories for the eyeballs.

After the events of Friday in the Oval Office, I wonder if Treasury Secretary Bessent stands by his view that President Trump should receive a Nobel Prize for his efforts with respect to Russia & Ukraine. It might be the most absurd, offensive and sycophantic comment ever made by a Treasury Sec.
