The best way to confront a bully about the misinformation he is spreading is to confront him in front of everyone. Macron just did that.

President Macron humiliated Donald Trump on live television. He shut him up and fact checked him mid sentence.

Dear media,

They aren’t “cutting waste, fraud, and abuse” they are cutting programs and agencies they disagree with ideologically.

DO YOUR FUCKING JOBS and stop parroting their talking points.

The U.S. attorney in Washington says DOJ "will be vigilant in standing against entities" like the Associated Press, that "refuse to put America first."

The AP's transgression is, apparently, not adopting the president's preferred name for the Gulf of Mexico.

The rumors are true: The proposed SAVE Act, now considered a priority for Republicans in the House, will make it harder, if not practically impossible, for millions of women to vote.

The SAVE Act, which purports to fend off the phantasmal threat of voter fraud, would throw millions of women off the voting rolls.

In addition, though it will not happen and who knows, it may even soon be illegal to say it, Trump, Musk and their anti-Constitutional coup plotters, planners and implementers should all be relieved of their jobs by whatever legal means available.

This amounts to the most significant data leak in cyber history. Private individuals in the data business now have access to your Social Security information.

This violates privacy laws in every state. Hopefully, state AGs will file suit & pursue criminal charges.

The controversy is not merely that Matt Gaetz raped underaged girls.

The controversy is not even just that Donald Trump wants to make this sex predator attorney general.

The controversy is that the entire GOP is OK with that.
