It'd be nice if Republicans cared as much about Americans losing their health care as they do about Trump losing the Nobel Peace Prize.

“The Founders would never believe that it would ever come to pass that one state militia could be sent to another state for the purposes of political retribution”

Democrats should not (must not) take Musk's money, but I want to point out how chilling it is for the president of the United States to be promising "very serious consequences" to someone if they donate to the opposition party.

Trump says Elon Musk will face 'very serious consequences' if he funds Democratic candidates
In an interview with NBC News, the president also said he assumes his relationship with the tech billionaire is over following their recent falling out.

With the Supreme Court now handing DOGE access to Social Security data, it’s becoming undeniable, the Trump administration is building the “deep state” themselves. Don’t get distracted by the noise.

In an act of integrity and resistance, a supervisor in the Nashville federal prosecutor’s office resigned over how the Abrego Garcia case was being handled. The charges are bogus, pure political theater meant to justify a wrongful abduction.

For years we've heard from the right about "welfare queens" and other so-called "freeloaders" pulling one over on the government.
But actually, it's the wealthy who are the real freeloaders — pulling one over on us all by skirting their taxes.
Where is the outrage over that?

WATCH: Trump’s Ag Sec Rollins claims “20-30% of the food stamp program SNAP is fraud/waste/abuse”🤔
As Trump & the GOP cut trillions in health care for regular folks they are also attacking food for the poor — all to make room for tax cuts for the rich.

It is not research if it has a predestined outcome mandated to align with what the government wants you to believe - real research is "INDEPENDENT"!!!
Linda McMahon: "Universities should continue to be able to do research as long as they're abiding by the laws and in sync, I think, with the administration and what the administration is trying to accomplish."

100 years ago today a Tennessee grand jury indicted science teacher John Scopes for violating the state’s law making it a crime “to teach any theory that denies the story of the Divine Creation of man as taught in the Bible, and to teach instead that man has descended from a lower order of animals.”
