Breaking News: Robert F. Kennedy Jr. said he personally instructed the CDC to abandon its position that vaccines do not cause autism. The move underscores his determination to challenge scientific orthodoxy — in this case, that vaccines save lives — and bend the health department to his will.

Clearly, Trump has learned something from his good friend MBS: If you don't like what your political opponents say, execute them.
Unfortunately for Mr. Trump, that's not what we do in America.

Trump is calling for the six Democratic lawmakers who urged the military not to follow any illegal orders to be arrested, and he’s reposting replies saying they should be hanged and calling them terrorists.

This dissent supporting the Texas GOP's racial gerrymandering reads like it's from some right-wing PR flack, but the author is federal appellate judge appointed by Ronald Reagan
The TX dissent is so unhinged it's making me queasy.
It's also wickedly antisemitic, mentioning "Soros" no fewer than 17 times, including gems like:
"Plaintiffs’ top expert Matt Barreto is a Soros operative. His CV confirms it. He expects to receive $2.5 million in his Soros piggybank."

You can disagree and argue as much as you like but the point of evaluating something scientifically is that not every statement should be given equal credence because evidence matters

Yup. I said this earlier today, but it was only a guess. Thanks for confirming it. It is no coincidence that of the 8 who came forward to do this, none of them are running in 2026. But they ran cover for some who are.

This year, the CFPB brought the fewest cases against big banks and giant companies for cheating consumers in the history of the CFPB.
Trump and his hatchet man Russ Vought are letting grifters and scammers off the hook – and trying to kill the agency that would hold them accountable.

This is the President openly announcing that he will violate court orders - two courts had concluded that the Trump regime withholding SNAP funding was illegal - and that the government had to pay out (at least reduced) SNAP benefits starting this week
