If you really think the colour of your neighbour's skin, or their sexual orientation, or the religion they practice is a problem, it's not. Turns out it's YOU that's the problem.

Pol Pot killed 3 million people. Vought and Musk have him beat three times over.
As a direct result of the obscene actions of Russell Vought and Elon Musk in destroying USAID, we can expect “at least 9.4 million additional deaths by 2030, if the current funding trend continues.

About 2.5 million of those deaths are projected to be children under the age of 5.”

JFC, this guy is disgusting. Even for Fox ENTERTAINMENT this is bad. Fox needs to be destroyed.
Jesse Watters means all the ones that were not murdered and buried on golf courses or ranches or dumped in waters around little St. James are grown ups now. Why can’t we just move on from the actions of the murderous pedophile trash he worships? 🤬

Calling it now: the US political media's treatment of AOC is going to make their treatment of Hillary Clinton or Al Gore look like a model of balance and discretion.
Have you ever once seen the New York Times quote Trump like this?

Trump: I have nothing to hide. I have been exonerated. I have nothing to do with Jeffrey Epstein. I have been totally exonerated on Epstein.

I still can't believe that this happened.
Health boss RFK Jr.'s 1-year anniversary week was packed with new disasters and reminders of old ones. But even those who should care most are MIA. GOP senators Bill Cassidy (a doctor) and Mitch McConnell (a polio survivor) top my list. My latest at @thebulwark.com open.substack.com/pub/thebulwa...

Here's a story that flew under the radar. Of course it happened during the Convicted Felon Donald Trump regime.

it’s breathtaking to see how this country is in decline by every possible metric
Devastated to learn that Univ of Texas at Austin is closing the American Studies dept. The years I spent there earning my PhD were formative, making me the teacher, thinker, and writer I am today. I've passed on what I learned at UT to thousands of students over the past 20 years. Just awful.

I just listened to a podcast with knowledgeable people who said it may be impossible to hold any perpetrators from the Epstein files accountable because it’s only the victims’ accusations, no proof, so difficult to definitively prove. Meanwhile, we hear there are blackmail videos—so I don’t get it.

Even Grok acknowledges that the so-called “Save America Act” (backed by Trump & Musk) may undermine the security of our elections by creating a Single Point of Attack for voter roll maintenance via the Save Program, which links to an SSA database mishandled by DOGE. #NoOnSave #ProtectOurVotes 1/
