So, Hegseth illegally ordered everyone killed in the first alleged drug boat strike on Sept. 2, prompting a second hit to finish off survivors in the water. — This is the real reason why Trump & Hegseth absolutely freaked out about the video against illegal orders.

One of the most exciting sunsets I've captured. A thunderstorm came rolling in just as the clouds started to change color. Smith Rock State Park in Oregon.

Mitch McConnell (with help from John Thune) SNUCK legislation into the "clean" CR on behalf of BIG ALCOHOL, which will effectively kill the hemp industry in America. Hemp Farmers will be devastated along w/thousands of small businesses, staggering job losses will pile up just before Holiday Season.
Government funding bill includes ban on hemp products.

Part of the legislation that ended the federal government shutdown could also mean the demise of the hemp industry. News4 spoke with a Maryland hemp farmer about the potential impact. www.nbcwashington.com/video/news/g...

They have no healthcare plan. They only have a plan to take away what exists.

Clark: So what are we doing here today? You have already voted to dismantle medicaid, the largest health care program in America. A program that covers 40% of all births in this country. 40% of children in this country. 40% of disabled people in this country.

The thing about Mamdani is that he’s a talented politician but not otherworldly or one in a billion, he’s just a competent guy with popular ideas who ran against an entitled piece of shit and to me it’s a lot more optimistic to imagine 1000 campaigns like his than to view him as a unique phenomenon

Incredibly bittersweet to be published in Teen Vogue this weekend after devastating layoffs, including my editor for this piece. It’s about how beauty influencers have fallen into and become part of the alt-right pipeline targeting girls and women

The Trump administration has filed an emergency request with the First Circuit Court of Appeals to block U.S. District Judge John McConnell’s order requiring it to fully fund the SNAP program using alternative funding sources by today.

This is what oligarchy looks like:

If you're Elon Musk, the richest man alive, Tesla gives you a $1 trillion pay package & Trump gives you a huge tax break.

If you're a poor kid on SNAP, Trump appeals a court decision that would have prevented you from going hungry.

Obscene.

Court orders Trump to make SNAP payments immediately. Instead he appeals the ruling. Americans starve. Via NYT.

Our aspiring dictator once again expresses his envy of a real one
Trump on President Xi: "During the meeting, he's here, and he's got about 6 people on each side. And every one of those people were at attention. And I made a comment to one of them and it got no response. And President Xi didn't let him. I said, I want my cabinet to behave like that."

Perhaps major media outlets should pay attention to what happened tonight and recognize that bending the knee to Trump or pandering to a MAGA audience they’ll never win over is not the path forward, morally, journalistically or financially.
