To be honest, given our current economic situation, I have no problem with self-indulgent rich women paying millions, while ordinary Americans struggle to feed their families, pretending to go into "space." I do question, however, the value of their return.

Remember this as you pay our federal income taxes today: Trump & Musk Families will combine to pay about $0 in federal income taxes because the system is crooked for rich owners of capital & they fired all of the IRS agents who audited rich owners of capital.

Another unvaccinated child has died from the measles in Texas.
There are over 600 cases in the US right now.
Letting children die to a completely preventable disease is absolute insanity.

If a deranged president intentionally destroying the country's economy with a ludicrous obsession (and misunderstanding) of tariffs *isn't* justification for invoking the 25th Amendment, I honestly can't imagine any scenario that would be.

The bigger question we should be asking is: Why are Trump officials using Signal for their communications instead of formal, traceable channels?
The answer seems clear — to avoid transparency.

In any other administration of the past 80 years, the defense secretary and the national security advisor would, following an equivalent scandal, now resign.

If these men had any sense of honor, they would already have resigned. The fact that they are all still in their jobs is just as damning as their terrifying and lawless incompetence.

The DEI purge at the Pentagon is White Supremacy.
The dismantling of the Dept of Education is Christian Nationalism.
The rampage by the kids in DOGE is just petty dumbfuckery.
