Is this what we want? A country where armed soldiers and masked federal agents roam our streets, set up traffic checkpoints in our cities, and physically tackle people on sidewalks? That is what’s coming across the country—and soon—if the occupation of DC isn’t stopped. 21/22

DiSabato: Jim Jordan knew that Dr. Strauss was performing unnecessary genital exams. And he absolutely knew that Dr. Strauss was taking showers with us on a daily basis..

Senate Republicans are calling to cut Medicaid and CHIP by over $1 trillion, growing to an 18% cut by 2034.

This would be at least four times the size of the largest Medicaid cut in history.

Is anyone allowed on TV this week who is against going to war with Iran?

I get their arguments for it, but why are those the only arguments being presented?

A very large percentage of the US population, even Trump voters, are against it. So why isn’t that viewpoint being heard?
