Baldwin to RFK Jr: "Is funding for Alzheimer's research centers DEI? Because you're holding up $65m for 14 of those centers in 9 states, including UW Madison. Is funding for cancer centers DEI? Because you're holding up $47m in cancer center support grants at 9 cancer centers in 8 states."

Breaking News: Wendy McMahon, the president of CBS News, said she would resign. McMahon had allied herself with Bill Owens, the “60 Minutes” executive producer who recently resigned. It’s the latest in a showdown between the news division and President Trump.

Jesus. No one's asserting that MS-13 isn't bad. They're asserting that Abrego Garcia didn't have anything to do with it.
This stunt not only doesn't provide that evidence, it pretty much proves they don't have it. Why else would they go to such lengths to muddy the waters like this?

Can’t believe they flippered tariffs against us yesterday.
A month ago, our car was totaled from a hit and run. Yesterday, we bought a new (used) vehicle. It's shiny and pretty and sooo nice.
As much as I didn't want a car payment...finding the silver lining in buying this big hunk of metal before tariffs cause vehicles to get even more stupid expensive.

Every single Democrat in Congress should be demanding the resignation of Waltz and Hegseth. Every single one.
This is a massive scandal. There should be a serious price to pay.

This story is absolutely bonkers.
Top national security officials in the Trump admin shared operational details of a military strike on Yemen in a Signal group chat, one they mistakenly added a journalist to, so he watched the whole thing play out in real time.
Just utter morons.

Ira Hayes was an alcoholic, but I guess not even that kind of personal connection can trump Pete Hesgeth's fundamental racism.
A page on the Defense Department’s website celebrated Pfc. Ira Hayes, a Pima Indian who was one of the six Marines photographed hoisting a U.S. flag at Iwo Jima in 1945.
The page, along with many others about minority service members, has now been erased.

If you're in NE Kansas, "Waitress" is a must-see at Topeka Civic Theatre. The music and story are beautiful, and (I know I'm biased as the choreographer but) this cast and crew make you forget it's a community theatre production.
