'Morris hit McConnell for voting against Kennedy’s confirmation and vowed to join the HHS secretary’s crusade to “remove deadly toxins and chemicals from our food and water” if elected.'
Republicans are de-regulating toxins and chemicals, not removing them! Are we really this stupid in the US?

After my son's appendectomy, we found out the hospital was in-network, but the pediatric surgeon wasn't. So, just out of curiosity, I checked the provider db to see which surgeon there would've been covered. None. Not one in-network pediatric surgeon at the biggest hospital in the area.

I can't even afford to *inherit* a house in my hometown, but it's definitely not because of immigrants. It's because of technology company executives.

As in, the Dems got sucked into responding to the constant grievances about identity that are the only things the Republican party cares about?
Hate to see Pete Buttigieg pandering to white male fragility.

So, Homan doesn't have an actual position in the administration, right? Just "border czar"? Which seems to entail going on TV a lot and acting belligerent.

That sure makes it sound like the prosecutor is being instructed to avoid looking into Epstein's ties with any Republicans.
I guess that makes sense now that Republicans' crimes aren't considered illegal, and Democrats' lawful actions are considered crimes.

This administration is going to steal from us at every opportunity and blow up the national debt like one of Elon's rockets.
At least maybe some of it can go to the victims instead of the ballroom. 😕

"As much as a quarter of all FBI agents—including highly specialized counterintelligence and counterterrorism agents...have been reassigned to assist ICE and CBP with immigration enforcement."
I can't figure out whether it's profound incompetence or an active effort to destroy the United States.

It's starting to feel like the megalomaniacal tech barons have purchased full control of the country and are attempting to make all their bizarre sci-fi fantasies come true without any input from the rest of us.

Of course... Universities must enforce political correctness. Can't have college professors going around talking about ideas that make some of the students uncomfortable. Safe spaces required (for the reactionary right).
