Didn’t Sarah Huckabee Sanders implement Medicaid work requirements in Arkansas?

Wonder how that went…

Due to the ongoing U.S. measles outbreak, a Texas man worried that his young son was at risk and took him to get vaccinated.

The cost of the shot? $1,400.

So let me get this straight…

Under Hegseth’s leadership, the Army is rolling out a policy that could kick out Black men for razor bumps—a medical condition that disproportionately affects us.

Meanwhile, troops who refused the COVID vaccine? They got waivers. Sympathy. Career protection.

i think that democrats should be preparing for the next time they win power but honestly, calling it "project 2029" speaks to a lack of imagination with regard to the task at hand.

Ever wonder WHY some people see MAGA as a family, and what you can do to help pull family and friends out? Take a look at this very important conversation with the founder of Leaving MAGA:

Fetterman said he didn’t want to spend his summer “sitting in the Capitol.” Cool. Millions of Americans don’t want to die because they can’t afford insulin. You were elected to work, not to tan your ass in Delaware.

“ICE” better catch a clue before they attack folks and then lie to a judge about being attacked. We are watching and recording them, as is our right. We’re not just relying on surveillance video.

If you think ICE is bad now, just wait till they hire 10,000 more agents and open more concentration camps.

I just enacted the most game-changing housing reforms in recent California history.

We're urgently embracing an abundance agenda by tearing down the barriers that have delayed new affordable housing and infrastructure for decades.

Let’s get building, California.

Cruelty is the point - several Fox News hosts seemed gleeful at the notion that a detained migrant might be attacked and eaten by a crocodile or killed by a python. Good Christian folks laughing about animals eating prisoners. Jesse Watters seems to think they are all named Jose.

The GOP aims to kill green energy, but it's their constituents who will lose.

Red-state voters “will be losing out on jobs that they would have been getting otherwise, but they might not know that.”
Senate version of "beautiful" bill will "kill" America's clean energy sector, experts say
New taxes on wind and solar are "truly bizarre, a self-defeating measure."

Americans who buy the rhapsodizing about Prime Minister Orban’s Hungary as a model for the U.S. should more closely examine the results, says the @ibanews.bsky.social's Michael Maya:

Autocracy, Corruption, and Decline: Why Hungary and Orbanism Must Never be a Model for the U.S.
Adopting Orban's model would risk reshaping the U.S. into a country with weakened checks and balances, corruption, and a flagging economy.

This has always been the GOP's strategy:

1) Cut taxes for the wealthy & corporations by claiming they'll pay for themselves.

2) Explode deficits

3) Use the debt as an excuse to demand cuts to vital programs that help millions.

4) Repeat.
