With Lisa Cook suing to challenge Trump's firing of her, experts in mortgage law tell me her lawyer can now use discovery to dig into the role Trump loyalist William Pulte played in singling out mortgages of her, Schiff and Letitia James for scrutiny:

I have been following politics for decades and the amount of sycophancy around Trump is so off the charts. I think there was some cultish stuff with Reagan, but nothing even close to this.

FOX: On the issue of fluoride, what has been the response from dentists who may be concerned that some children in lower incomes may not get preventative care?

RFK JR: It is an issue. It's a balance. You're gonna see probably slightly more cavities.

Did you know that Medicaid covers 4 in 10 U.S. births? That's right, nearly half of all babies born in this country rely on Medicaid for their first few years of life. And Republicans want to take that away from them.

This is MY Representative @liccardo.house.gov and I'm very proud he represents me! Thank you @liccardo.house.gov for asking the questions that need to be asked, drawing attention to the utter ridiculousness of R committees going after the Biden admin, when there is so much corruption in this one.
While enduring our third House Financial Services Committee hearing dedicated solely to criticize whatever the last administration did, I asked a few questions to explore how political corruption in this administration is undermining basic financial protections for every American consumer.

Don't forget: Stephen Miller makes money off deportation.
Stephen Miller says “unchecked migration” got Mamdani the win. Adds that migration has ruined a once-great NYC, which is an interesting read on NYC’s history.

Lindsey Graham doesn't want you to know the name of his opponent but will try every last pathetic attempt to save his seat.

My name is Lee Johnson. I am a Democrat running to retire Lindsey. If you are with me I need you to share this and follow my account. Let’s end this nightmare.

Here's a very partial list of what Dems have succeeded in getting excluded from the Big Ugly via Byrd Rule challenges.

It makes the bill less-shitty and may create a delay Dems can use to exacerbate the unpopularity of the bill.

Just going to put this here since the current administration doesn’t seem to care if your children get sick.

RFK Jr and his psuedo-health dingbats will likely try to remove vaccines from the children’s recommended vaccine list.

Download it and keep it handy, you may end up needing it later.

I’m choked up seeing this—it’s shameful.

Iranian refugees got snatched by “immigration agents” dressed like bounty hunters in West LA’s Sawtelle neighborhood.

We’re really about to send them back to a country we just bombed? A regime known for jailing, torturing, and killing its own people?
