Gov. Mills: I’ll comply with the state and federal laws

Trump: We are the federal law. You better do it because you’re not going to get any federal funds.

During WWII, four brothers from the same Jewish family signed up to fight against the Nazis. Only one of the four brothers survived.

His grandson is the current President of Ukraine, Volodymyr Zelensky.

Rather than being able to focus on mourning their lost loved one, family members of one of the crew who died in this helo crash had to ask that the soldier's name was withheld in the midst of an online witch hunt following Trump admin comments blaming the crash on "DEI." This is horrific

A horrific story: A 22-year-old died from an asthma attack after his inhaler jumped from $66 to $539—out of reach when his insurance, a UnitedHealth Group subsidiary, stopped covering it. He struggled to breathe for five days before collapsing.

The cruelty of our healthcare system knows no bounds.
Man’s asthma inhaler cost went from $66 to $539, then he died, Wisconsin lawsuit says
The man wasn’t given a notice before the insurance company dropped the medication, the lawsuit says.

Great post here, Grits! Texans will bear huge pain from Trump's tariffs. Not to mention prices at your local H-E-B and other places will be going up.
Texas' imports from Mexico in 2023 were $142.7 billion, according to the Texas Economic Development Corporation. Assuming that number remains in the ballpark, the new 25% Trump tax on Mexican goods will cost Texans ~$35.7 billion per year. businessintexas.com/foreign-inve....

Cannot stop thinking about how Octavia Butler wrote a book in 1993 about climate change. It opens with deadly fires in LA in 2025. In the story, a fascist President has just won office with the campaign slogan "Make America Great Again."

She was a modern day Nostradamus. If only we'd listened.

Spoiler alert: Dallas is not a red city. And it could be 110 degrees at Olympic time.
FINNERTY: I'm wondering if you think the Trump administration should seriously look at moving the Los Angeles Olympics to a red city where things are gonna be run properly, like a city in Florida, maybe Miami, or maybe Dallas in Texas

He must have watched the movie Greenland.
Donald Trump says it is an “absolute necessity” for the United States to annex Greenland.

“For purposes of National Security and Freedom throughout the World, the United States of America feels that the ownership and control of Greenland is an absolute necessity.”
