President Trump wants to let China buy some of our most sophisticated AI chips. This is the equivalent of President Truman giving Russia some of our best nuclear blueprints for a nuclear weapon in the middle of the Cold War.

The biggest of those corporations is Cal-Maine, which just announced quarterly profits of $509 million — more than 3x what it made a year ago.
Corporate concentration + bird flu = a price-hiking free for all.

The biggest divide in America today is not between “right” and “left,” or between Republicans and Democrats.
It’s between democracy and oligarchy.

Donald Trump and Elon Musk talk obsessively about rooting out fraud at the Social Security Administration. The agency’s inspector general recently found that less than one per cent of benefits distributed between 2015 and 2022 were improper.

Trump isn’t cutting waste and abuse. He’s cutting programs that help regular people - like Medicaid - to fund tax cuts for billionaires and corporations. He only closes agencies that were stopping his rich friends bilk consumers.
