On his private jet they may wear suits and ties, lipstick and heels, but if Sean Duffy ever ventures behind the first class curtain, he’ll see how economy class has changed since the days of casual sexism and pursers in short skirts.

Duffy on his demand that air travelers not wear slippers or pajamas: "It honors our country ... don't take your shoes off and put your feet on the chair ahead of you"

There is a reason why Witkoff did not want any officials with the State Dept or anyone else present during his many meetings w/Putin - he didn’t want witnesses to his treasonous behavior. Highly unusual, but makes perfect sense when you consider that he only cared about Russia.

New limits on school loans could narrow physician and nurse pipeline, educators warn
Under new Trump administration rules, students won't be able to borrow as much for medical or nursing school or some other health professions.

Salt water laced with cancer-causing chemicals, a byproduct of oil and gas drilling, keeps shooting out of the ground in Oklahoma.

Experts say it means even more wastewater is spreading underground, poisoning the state’s water supply.

We have seen the Trump playbook before. In 2020 it was to pressure election officials to overturn the result of a free and fair election. Now it is to intimidate state legislatures to illegal redistrict. We defeated him the and we will do so again.

Senator Ruben Gallego torched Hegseth. Senator Mark Kelly flew combat missions. Hegseth follows trump’s orders. Gallego said the truth out loud: cowardice isn’t defense, and attacking a veteran to please a president is betrayal.

This isn't the first time Trump and his administration have broken the law or violated the US Constitution. It's time to hold them to account.

tRump's regime is targeting college affordability by cutting financial aid and slowing cancellation of student debt from the Biden admin. If these changes continue, colleges will gradually enroll fewer students of color and fewer students from low-income families.

Trump’s Anti-Affordability Agenda Has a New Target: College
University of Iowa sociology professor Louise Seamster says that the administration’s changes to financial aid policies are going to make our colleges less racially and economically diverse.

Jesse Watters thinks the murder of Jamal Khashoggi is hilarious. He also seems to think the pledges of investment made by foreign governments mean much of anything. The entire GDP of Saudi Arabia is only $1.24 trillion. The Crown Prince's pledge means nothing.

Trump has repeatedly claimed that gas prices have fallen, are at $2 per gallon, and are the lowest in two decades. Not surprisingly, he’s lying. The national average for regular gas stands at $3.055 today, almost exactly the same as $3.056 a year ago under President Biden, according to AAA. ⛽️

True tale: A Baltimore police colonel called a rival at 3 a.m. from a crime scene: "Leon, I got you now. You fucked up. You wrote "POLICE" backwards on the front of the EVU truck."
"Eddie, that's so it reads correctly in a rear view mirror."
Long pause.
"Aw Leon, you got an answer for everything."

For the life of me I don't understand why posts like this are not creating intense discussion about Trump's fitness for office. If our leader is not aware of what is happening around him, does not see the sky as blue, how can he remain in this job?

It's profoundly dangerous for the country.
