Speaking as someone who has spent most of her life in or around Illinois wetlands that will lose protection, this is a great tragedy for all. Shame on the Farm Bureau for supporting this change.

Trump administration to strip protections for wetlands and streams, leaving Illinois habitat at risk
At the heart of the proposal announced earlier this week is a new, stricter definition to the long-debated legal term, “Waters of the United States.”

President Trump campaigned on bringing down grocery prices day one, but it’s almost Thanksgiving and prices are up. Household budgets are being carved up alongside the Thanksgiving turkey. Families are paying 40% more for tin foil to wrap leftovers, 22% more for cranberry sauce and the list goes on.

I don’t know what the Supreme Court will do, but I am confident that at the District Court level it is still the case that the Pentagon cannot recall a sitting US Senator to active duty in order to court martial him for something he said. Article 1, Section 6, among other constitutional provisions.

RFK is not a man of any kind or of any level of power “in science.”
He is a man in politics who has been given power to impose his ideology *on* science.
The ability to censor and censure scientists is not the same thing as being “in science.”

Over many interviews, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. told Michael Scherer about how he plans to remake America’s public-health system. Can he lead the scientific establishment he’s spent much of his life crusading against?

Like the Afghanistan pullout it also came at the same time people started getting mad about the economy and was the moment people who weakly supported him were like well I didn't vote for this.
it's very fitting that in retrospect, Trump's failure to oust Jimmy Kimmel was the point that his administration turned. It's been all losses ever since

This seems a significantly worse "tell" of derangement
-Sen Kelly has flown nearly 40 *combat missions* as a pilot.
-He's done 375+ carrier landings (Jeesh!)
-He's been in space as astronaut.
-He's flown 50+ different kinds of aircraft
And Hegseth and Trump are picking fight about valor with him?
