RFK Jr's move to eliminate the Administration for Community Living, which helps disabled & aging people stay at home instead of being institutionalized, is disastrous.

These motherfuckers are going to kill children. I've been saying it for a year, but RFK Jr might as well be a serial murderer.

Emanuel: I worked for two administrations that tirelessly fought to get us out of a recession. And now we have an administration that just shrugs and says, “Well, there could be a little pain here.”

Well, if you have 11 billionaires in your cabinet, what do you know about pain?

So one Musk company has just overpaid for another Musk company by ~$20 billion so that the main product of the first company (Grok) can be tampered with by Musk until it stops giving negative—honest—answers about him and Trump.

I would say this is unbelievable, but Musk is capable of any depravity.

Nearly every Republican in the Senate voted to overturn a Biden Admin rule that limited bank overdraft fees to $5.

This rule, initially established by the now gutted CFPB, was expected to save consumers $5 billion annually.

The GOP is the party of junk fees.

These men behind bars are not in prison after being charged with crimes. They are "enemy combatants" being detained in a concentration camp.

As such, Kristi Noem's crass photo-op using them as props violates the Geneva Convention's prohibition of ‘exposure to public curiosity’ of those captured.
