The wheels of justice move so slowly it's hard to believe the chainsaw wielding Trump administration slash and burn of biomedical research hasn't already done permanent damage. 2025 was for destroying national priorities, 2026 is for destroying international priorities #mapoli
Appeals court rules regime can't just slash funds for biomedical research; ruling uses regime's own Twitter post against it

Trump, Rubio and Hegseth are claiming Venezuela traffic's fentanyl, cocaine, is bad, has oil, has Cuban security guards, needs gunboat diplomacy, needs a leader, has leaders, needs Maduro's cabinet to do what we want, ruling the hemisphere is hard, wait until dozen's of countries follow suit #mapoli

"We love America" is one of the mantras of Bari Weiss' CBS News. "Unapologetically patriotic" is the term the Washington Post's newly right-wing editorial board uses for its ethos. But "America" isn't billionaires/Trump and good journalism isn't always patriotic. newrepublic.com/article/2049...
Bari Weiss Is Dead Wrong—Good Journalism Isn’t About Being Pro-America
The CBS boss and her new evening anchor have released new “principles.” Among them: “We Love America.” They have no understanding of journalism—but they sure know where their bread is buttered.

Sec Robert Kennedy Jr. is too sexy for his pants and too sexy for vaccines that protect children from liver disease. Was it Kennedy or Hegseth that required JD Vance's tie-breaking vote to get them to the 51 votes starting line? National Security Plan came out this week. You won't like it. #mapoli

Two things anger Trump, people asking about Epstein and people asking about sleeping through mtgs. Sleepy Don wakes up and rails against Somalis and Afghanis. The Afghani who killed the WV national guard women was trained by CIA as an assassin at a young age and came to the US post war #mapoli

“'The fact that we don't have money to pay journalists, but we have money to pay Bari Weiss between $100 and 200 million is indicative of what the Ellisons' true goal here is,' a network correspondent said. 'And it's not journalism.'"
CBS News staffers are ‘literally freaking out’ about Bari Weiss taking over newsroom
EXCLUSIVE: ‘People are using words like depressing and doomsday – feels like some sort of doomsday,’ one source told The Independent about the mood inside CBS News right now.

Taylor Swift is WINNING. Maga moved on to target other American cultural phenomenon in reactionary style👉 Bad Bunny NFL Super Bowl halftime. He should call his next album a country music album no matter what he makes.

Kavanaugh stops are racial profiling, which has been unconstitutional for law enforcement since 1975. #mapoli
What DHS pulled in Chicago on Tuesday is wildly unconstitutional. They smashed down almost every door in the building, dragged entire families into the street, and detained people for hours ("Kavanaugh stops").

Ms. Fisher was held for five hours and another senior citizen was held for three hours.

Federal goons in combat gear smashed through South Shore like it was Fallujah, ripping kids naked from their mothers, zip tying citizens, trashing apartments and calling it justice. This is not law enforcement. It is collective punishment dressed up as immigration policy.

There's nothing illegal about ICE block. This is solely about Apple appeasing the Trump regime.

With Google removing sideloading next year, these companies will have total control over what runs on your phone.

How Trump picks winners and losers in the "free" market.
This was done at the direction of Pam Bondi. The US government is now dictating what apps you can have on your phone.

The underlying threat here is if Apple didn't comply, they'd slap billions in tariffs on Apple products.
