The people who lost children and other loved ones in the Texas floods are owed honest answers from officials. They should be told why flash flood warnings issued hours earlier were not conveyed to people in the path of the water. They don’t need more prayers from politicians. They need answers.

From Gavin Newsom:
“Mike Johnson would hate for you to know that 40% of his district are on Medicaid! 1.6 million people from Louisianans or 35% rely on it!

It would be terrible if it went viral!”

I wrote about one of the most vindictive people I’ve ever met so, uh, if something happens to me… www.thenation.com/article/poli...
Charlie and the Ambassadorship Factory
Charlie Kushner, the newly confirmed US ambassador to France, is a vindictive, felonious, and score-settling real-estate mogul, not unlike a certain US president.

America cannot long remain free, nor first among nations, if it becomes the kind of place where universities are dismantled because they don't align politically with the current head of the government.

This certainly needs to be out there.
Reminder: when Sean Duffy was a congressman, he and other Republicans voted against upgrading air traffic control systems.

Now, he’s trying to blame those systems for Newark airport’s outages – while claiming DOGE’s cuts of critical support staff at the FAA had nothing to do with it.

Hello?

So, white immigrants are encouraged and those of any color are deported, imprisoned or ignored when they deserve protection? I am ashamed and embarrassed of this country.
NEW: As the Trump admin is flying Afrikaners here today to be resettled as "refugees," @Sec_Noem is terminating Temporary Protected Status for Afghanistan — meaning they may start deporting women and allies who protected our troops to the Taliban to be persecuted or killed!

Every time I think the corruption can’t get worse…..
It’s especially galling that AG Pam Bondi personally wrote the memo approving the gift of the Qatari airplane. Her last job was as a lobbyist for Qatar! efile.fara.gov/docs/6415-Ex...

DOGE initially promised to save taxpayers $2 trillion. Now it admits it's only delivered $160B in cuts.

And even those minimal savings are nearly wiped out by the cost of implementing DOGE's cuts: $135B.

We're losing vital government services (that are efficient!) for basically nothing in return.
NEW: The Great Lakes hold 95% of all the surface freshwater in the United States.

Severe cuts have decimated the NOAA Great Lakes lab.

Scientists worry they’ve lost the ability to protect the public from toxic algal blooms, which can kill animals and sicken people.
