Opinion | DOGE says it’s saving $100 billion. It’s about to lose a lot more.
Cuts to the IRS will backfire by giving tax evaders a free pass.

JUST IN: The U.S. added 256,000 jobs in December, surpassing expectations and bringing the total for 2024 to 2.2 million. The unemployment rate dipped to 4.1%, and wages grew 3.9% over the past year, far outpacing inflation.

The Ukrainian General Staff reports that the Russian Armed Forces have lost 2,010 personnel in the past 24 hours. This underscores the ongoing intensity of combat operations, even amid a relative lull in media coverage.

Ignorance, propaganda, illiteracy, low living standards, and lack of money are not excuses for Russians committing genocide of Ukrainians.
World, can you please stop excusing Russians? They are responsible, and until they stop the war, shouldn’t even be allowed to enter any democratic country.

Saw someone upbraiding someone else for having a hobby while the world is on fire, and, my friends:
1. The world is ever on fire, this is today's conflagration;
2. If you don't find time for rest and joy the fire will consume you;
3. Don't let people shame you for being an entire human.

Two years ago today we were awarded the Congressional Gold Medal for protecting The US Capitol on January 6th 2021. Almost 4 years later the efforts to downplay, whitewash and minimize what happened appear to be succeeding. I won't ever stop standing up to them.
