No one should ever have the power to autonomously cancel hundreds of millions of dollars for scientific research based on some lies they saw on YouTube.

Republicans, before you vote to close 1 of 4 nursing homes, can you update us on where those people will go?

Maybe call a few seniors in your state and go over plans for where they go next?

Or call the son whose dad has dementia and tell him how he can be a full-time caregiver?
BREAKING: 1 in 4 nursing homes say they will be forced to close if Republicans pass Trump’s Big Beautiful Bill.

No grandma should be kicked out of her nursing home so that Mark Zuckerberg can buy another Hawaiian island.

A HUGE scandal.

Someone told Emil Bove he should defy the courts.

Who could that possibly have been?

Who told him he should drop charges against Eric Adams for a quid pro quo?

There must be a full investigation to find out who.
“Bove stated that D.O.J. would need to consider telling the courts ‘fuck you’ and ignore any such order.” This story is just a blockbuster in every way - exposing Bove & others to both contempt and a suite of bar ethics charges. Hope to add more as time permits, but the whistleblower a hero.

As the US Army celebrates it 250th birthday, Trump is celebrating the enemy that tried to defeat it.
Trump announces at Fort Bragg that he is going to restore the names of other military bases that are named after Confederate generals, getting a big cheer from the troops for Robert E. Lee.

Insane this isn’t a bigger global story.

Climate change is causing glacier collapse in the Alps.

The Swiss town of Blatten was destroyed yesterday. The few buildings that survived the 3.5 million cubic metres of landslide are now slowly drowning as the collapsed mountain damns the river.

This is major. As a reminder, DOGE stormed the USIP building in March with the help of DC Metro Police who were originally called there by building employees. Even tho, USIP owned the building, DOGE just…took it. Background: www.thehandbasket.co/p/us-institu...
JUST IN: Judge Howell rules that the Trump/DOGE takeover of the U.S. Institute of Peace was illegal and should be treated as null and void.

Bobby Jr. wants to make you sick. Trump wants to put you out of work. And the Republicans in Congress want you to become uninsurable if you lose your job.

And we, normal voters, can only still try to stop the last item on the list,
