Scoop: The Trump admin is lying.

I received a notice from my healthcare marketplace warning that my premiums will increase in 2026. Who does the Trump admin think they are fooling with this BS?

SCOOP: The Trump admin is arguing there will be lower premiums and more health care plans for Affordable Care Act enrollees next year compared to before the pandemic, according to a memo sent to Congressional offices today.

These are the states that are suing the regime for withholding SNAP benefits. If your state isn’t on this list and you care about families, mothers, babies, and children starving it’s time to call your reps.

They say they will replace it with “Grokipedia.”

Why? Because quick, free, independent fact-checking is their enemy.

They cannot control it. And that terrifies them

Using American cities as "training grounds for our military" isn’t just intrinsically un-American, it's unconstitutional.

More like a tin-pot dictator than a President every day.
Trump to top military officials: "I told Pete, we should use some of these dangerous cities as training grounds for our military. National Guard, but our military. Because we're going into Chicago very soon. That's a big city with an incompetent governor. Stupid governor."

The Council is an apolitical board of scholars that safeguards libraries, museums, archives, and preservation projects from politics. Trump just fired most of them, saying replacements must “align with his vision.” It’s another blatant attempt to rewrite history.
