BREAKING: Attorney General Pam Bondi has ordered Kash Patel to review multiple life-saving gun safety measures—with the intention of eliminating them. Violent crime is at a 50-year low following bipartisan progress. Trump is willing to reverse all of that to line the pockets of the gun industry.
Trump Administration to Roll Back Array of Gun Control Measures
Taken together, they signal an abrupt reversal from efforts by the Biden administration to stem the flood of unregulated semiautomatic handguns and rifles.

When people say 'politics is too divisive now,' what they really mean is 'I was more comfortable when certain groups suffered quietly.'

Staffers at 18 rape crisis centers told ProPublica that payments were delayed for months after North Carolina’s state Legislature directed $15 million for sexual assault survivors away from Democratic-led agencies that had long overseen such money.

A Political Power Grab Redirected Funds for North Carolina’s Sexual Abuse Survivors. Women in Crisis Paid the Price.
The move, which led to disruptions in services for sexual assault and domestic violence survivors, provides a glimpse of the consequences when a branch of government assumes unprecedented control.

Dear all foreign friends outside the United States,
Our country is big. Like really big. Like so much bigger than you ken. Our states are bigger than many countries, and there's 50 of them.
So when you wonder why we are not all marching on DC
I live 2,500 miles (4000 km) from the White House

The White House Correspondents’ Association said it fired host Amber Ruffin so it can instead focus the dinner on celebrating the First Amendment.
Which apparently can be done best by preventing a gay black woman from speaking.

The reason that the US is locking up tourists for weeks in hellish detention centers rather than letting them book tickets back home is because the detention centers are owned by corporations. They are charging the taxpayers fortunes to cage these people, and making bonanzas off their suffering.

Jeffrey Goldberg thinking he was being pranked and then realizing he was actually just in the war plans group chat is such a good microcosm of how it feels to be alive right now, everything seems fake until you realize it’s actually real and incredibly stupid

Trump walks to Marine One to head to Mar-a-Lago to play golf on the taxpayers dime.
This trip will cost us $3.1 million, which could be used by USAID to feed 710 starving children for a full year.
