Without treatment, millions of people with H.I.V. would be at risk of severe illness and premature death. The loss of treatment also threatens the emergence of drug-resistant strains of H.I.V.; both outcomes could have a global impact, including in the United States.

Just weeks into his second term, Donald Trump has proposed out taking over Gaza, reclaiming the Panama Canal and buying Greenland from Denmark. Allies can’t tell if he’s serious.

Trump was up late and early this morning crying about 60 Minutes formatting their Kamala Harris interview to ***checks notes*** fit within a 60 minute format.

Trump posted a Fox News clips highlighting Kamala Harris’ use of tissue to blow her nose.

"Trump wasn’t simply mistaken or proven wrong. He deliberately lied, and the question now is whether the press will actually hold him accountable or remain his willing accomplices. The early returns aren’t great."
Trump's walk back on lowering prices is a media failure
He was lying all along and got away with it.

Face Eating Leopard Eats Faces. Chip Roy, a hard core MAGA nut, is no longer kosher b/c he dare disobey Trump and Musk. Now, he's thrown to the wolves like Mike Johnson and others.

This is what you've enabled, Republicans. Oh well.

Thanks to Elon Musk and Donald Trump, Republicans cut $190 million for pediatric cancer research from the funding bill.

This, 100%.
If you're a prominent voice for the Dems and you capitulate to the GOP to endear yourself to Trump, there's something you need to understand

MAGA will never, ever respect you

What you showed them is you can be pushed around, bought off, and owned like a little bitch

Enjoy that
