Calling the press “fake news” is harmful. Calling them “seditious, perhaps even treasonous” for publishing reporting is something else entirely. Treason is a capital crime. Suggesting journalists should face it for exercising their First Amendment rights and doing their jobs is dangerous.

“We are rapidly approaching a tipping point… Anti-vaccine propaganda is imbued throughout the information ecosystem. Actions to remove access to a number of vaccines are accelerating. If we’re going to do something to stop this, we better do it really soon. We had better do it now.”
Delaying the birth dose of the hep B vaccine was just the beginning. Trump is ordering RFK Jr to overhaul the entire childhood vaccine schedule. Here’s a preview of the dishonest, Denmark-infused MAHA strategy to harm as many kids as possible.

Reject any and every lie of this regime that they are fighting the drug trade. Their boss pardons a drug kingpin who helped bring 400 tons of cocaine into the U.S.

Your Black Friday reminder that in 75% of U.S. industries, a smaller number of companies now control more of the business than they did twenty years ago. We must stop the monopolization of America. Shop small if you can, please.

A reminder: Trump 1.0 ordered the Afghanistan withdrawal, and Trump 2.0 granted the shooter asylum this past April. Trump 2.0 also dismantled the joint terrorism task force, and gutted our national security apparatus.

Holy shit. So Elon decides it would be nice to know what region of the world people are posting from. So they add that little feature.
2 hours later they figure out that many Trump supporters with millions of followers are posting from other countries. Surprise!
That "feature" is now gone.

KERNEN: If we're reversing some tariffs to try to help affordability, isn't that acknowledging that tariffs were responsible for some of the higher prices and inflation?
