So I added it up and my insurance has paid out $2.35 million since September ‘24 for 5 surgeries, 31 days in hospital and 5 months of outpatient care.

Trump: “Let the states decide!”

Also Trump: “I meant except New York.”
The Trump administration is considering a move to halt New York City’s congestion pricing program, according to people with knowledge of the matter. The move could start a legal battle between the state and federal governments, and effectively kill the program.

so let me get this straight — Trump’s been convicted of sexual abuse, so allegations of sexual assault by his defense secretary nominee are no big deal.

did I get that right?
