Donald Trump's budget director Russell Vought is the architect not just of Project 2025 but of the past 36 chaotic days of Trump 2.0. We need to dig into Vought's philosophy of "radical constitutionalism" and where it could lead the nation.

Last Monday eggs were $2.50 and today they are $6. To those who voted for this, I saw this on TikTok: “I had my Christian sister tell me, "Well it's more about the economy"
So I replied, "So like Judas, you sold us all for 30 pieces of silver". She didn't know what to say after that!"

A mother fox carries her baby by grasping with her teeth the loose, non-sensitive skin at the back of the neck. When she grips & lifts her baby off the ground it causes relaxation, baby assumes a compact posture with hind legs drawn, heart rate slows & makes no sounds while carried. 📸 Sharon Denny
