The federal government plans to eliminate services for LGBTQ youth who call 988, the national suicide and crisis hotline, according to a Health and Human Services budget draft leaked last week.

Previous to the FDA, folks would put chalk and plaster of Paris in milk to make it appear white. They could also add formaldehyde to cover the smell and taste of spoiled milk.

What’s wild is that even Trump’s sycophants can’t figure out what he wants enough to properly suck up. The headlines read like the world’s worst guessing game. Is he a liquidationist? What’s his strategy siding with Russia? How can we please the orange ball in the sky?

I was at this town hall and McCormick dodged the questions about DOGE & tyranny. I hope Bluestein publishes the video elsewhere because one of his clips shows McCormick comparing his frustrated (but civil and generally respectful) constituents to the January 6th insurrectionists.
Over on X, simple tweets by my colleague Greg Bluestein of the Atlanta Journal Constitution have been blocked. They were nothing but video of a town hall held by Rep. Rich McCormick R-GA where he was asked questions about DOGE

The results of this confirmation process were not what we wanted -- but GA’s Senators did the right thing by joining 36 other Dems to hold the Senate floor through the night to speak out against RFK Jr's nomination to run HHS.

THANK YOU Senators Warnock and Ossoff. @senossoff.bsky.social
