We’re deeply disappointed in much of the U.S. media. Grateful, however, to international journalists who are telling the truth.

Republicans snuck a line into their "big beautiful bill” that could CLOSE nearly 200 Planned Parenthood locations.
And guess what? 90% of those centers would be in states where abortion is LEGAL.
It’s one step closer to banning abortion nationwide.

We’ve talked about this before, but we wanted to expand on it a little more. Late last week, Elon Musk’s so-called “Department of Government Efficiency” (DOGE) effectively took control of the Department of the Interior without a single Senate confirmation, public hearing, or vote.

Owens — only the third person to run the program in its 57 years — told his staff that “over the past months, it has become clear that I would not be allowed to run the show as I have always run it, to make independent decisions based on what was right for ‘60 Minutes,’ right for the audience.”
Oligarchs won't defend democracy: "Paramount’s controlling shareholder, Shari Redstone, is eager to secure the Trump administration’s approval for a multibillion-dollar sale of her company to Skydance, a company run by the son of the tech billionaire Larry Ellison."

Also once he caves or acquiesces, that will start a domino effect. 47 doesn’t feel the need to have a sacrificial lamb. He would rather turn a blind eye. He won’t give the opposition anything.

Pretty monstrous…
SCOOP — The US sent Iraqi refugee Omar Ameen to Rwanda via new diplomatic relationship in which they've agreed to act as a "third country" for deportees unable to be safely returned to their country of origin, per cables reviewed by me.
This is first reported instance. Cable indicates more to come.

A State Department cable indicates at least 10 more people will be subjected to the same.

The lies spill out so freely & easily! What companies are rushing to create jobs in this country?! Even if that were true, not one can flip a switch, swing open a door, and say come on in & get to work! They’re all fraudsters. Every last one of them. Shame on Jake Tapper for giving him airtime.

My favorite spot is on my balcony looking through my telescope. I gasp every time I see Jupiter & its moons. I get giddy when I locate Saturn - that ring is breathtaking. And gazing at the Moon’s surface is truly mesmerizing. I took this photo through the eyepiece when I first got my telescope.
