The Administration is using the threat of Americans going hungry so that they can dramatically increase the cost of health care across the country.
What a sick ruse it all is.

Seems odd, but is quite expected. I am seeing that his fans have a hate double standard. They think these things are not hateful to say to the left:
NPR reports over 30 people have been fired, put on leave or faced calls to resign over social media posts criticizing Charlie Kirk or issues around his assassination. Seems odd those supporting his open debate style seemingly want to limit debate on him. https://loom.ly/m_0MjDM
People are losing jobs due to social media posts about Charlie Kirk
Some GOP officials want to clamp down on perceived expressions of schadenfreude about Charlie Kirk's death. Conservative activists are publicizing social media posts that are celebrating his death.

I have said before that I believe there are four “Washington D.C.”s. One is the snarky one that just means “corrupt politicians.” One is Sorkin’s, a place of idealist clashes between the good and the bad. (1/)

Once again, President Donald Trump demonstrated his power to shake up global financial markets. This time, by returning to one of his favorite topics: whether to fire Fed Chair Jerome Powell

I’ll say it again: Jon Husted is one of the most vulnerable Senators in America:
- boring
- arrogant
- not very bright
- tied to scandals
- point man of Ohio’s poor economic performance
- MAGA not into him
- voted for the Big Ugly Bill and keeps lying about what’s in it

Talk about an admission of guilt: “The office of… U.S. Sen. Jon Husted has deleted a social media post after being asked about the message it sent. The post on X claimed that President Donald Trump’s One Big Beautiful Bill Act is a “pro-family” bill” for “working class families.””

Camp Mystic’s leader got a ‘life threatening’ flood alert. They evacuated an hour later.
More than an hour passed between Camp Mystic receiving a severe flood warning and a decision to evacuate young campers asleep in cabins by the Guadalupe River.

The New York Times’ editorial decisions make more sense when you remember their publisher is a fifth-generation owner who was handed the paper as a birthright while the managing editor was a Harvard legacy whose father founded Staples.

Now that Congress and the president have helped the 1%, it’s time to help the whole country. It’s past time for the US to reckon with our legacy of slavery. If we had, then the BBB would never have been proposed and we would not be building and filling concentration camps.

This confident ignorance is pure BS. His calculation is on billionaires’ capital, not their income.
The US federal budget has billions in it to subsidize billionaires’ income.
If he used accurate assumptions for the US budget plus total billionaire wealth, he would be confronted with fallacy.

Fun fact: If you taxed every U.S. billionaire into oblivion—wiped out their entire net worths—you could fund the federal government for…less than a year. And like it or not, many of them built things that vastly improved people’s lives.
I know it’s trendy to hate billionaires, but many didn’t get rich by accident.
