We won’t notice it at first

Maybe an outbreak of cholera in southwest Kansas goes undetected

Perhaps the number of flu related deaths ticks up just a bit each year

But-ultimately, inexorably-the destruction of the CDC will lead to countless deaths

All because of two men

During a town hall Wednesday in Worth County, Iowans urged Hinson to “stop lying” after she claimed that the president’s key legislation had ushered in “higher wages” and an improved cost of living.

“Higher wages?” shouted one woman incredulously. “For who? For you?”

NEW RESULT: Democrats have flipped a state Senate in Iowa.

This was a seat Trump carried by 11%, but Democratic nominee Catherine Drey has just won it by 10.4%.

This is the second legislative flip by Dems in Iowa this year. It also means the GOP loses its supermajority in Iowa’s senate.

Well, turns out that the Trump "pivot" to Ukraine was probably non-existent. He has, once again, protected Putin. And at the same time Trump has sabotaged the crucial US-Indian relationship and maneuvered Zelensky into a very dangerous position. open.substack.com/pub/phillips...

I don't understand why the administration keeps saying that other countries pay our tariffs. This is simply not true even in the most optimistic scenario (e.g., a US importer negotiates something with their foreign partner). If the policy is good, why lie about it?

The President—who uses antisemitic slurs—is building concentration camps and an enormous secret police force.

Ya know, maybe this is just because I’m Jewish, but I wish the political opposition and the media made a bigger deal about it!

This is what true leadership looks like. You lead with compassion & empathy. You comfort & heal.

Not the hateful BS happening right now.

I miss Biden’s leadership. He wasn’t perfect, but he is a good man & a true leader.

These pics don’t fit their narrative of him being unfit.
