Trump on Jerome Powell: "I'd love to fire his ass. He should be fired. The only thing Scott [Bessent] is blowing it on is the Fed. The rates are too high, Scott. And if you don't get it fixed fast, I'm going to fire your ass."

Remarkable how resilient this line about "symbolic deliveries of food" has become vis a vis criticism of the Sumud Flotilla. The point of the Flotilla is to breach the blockade in the 1st place, to then enable the repetition of this breach, and to compel international pressure to render it obsolete.

The White House is objectively and demonstrably pro-sex trafficking
NEW: When Andrew Tate landed in the US, Customs & Border Protection seized his electronic devices. But @propublica.org found that a White House official told DHS to return the devices, emphasizing that the request came from the White House.

You can really understand a lot of the outrage and contempt from the press at Democrats seriously trying to contest the GOP in redistricting and legislative brinkmanship as the equivalent of those 19th century anti-suffragist cartoons attacking women for pretending to be men.

We are at a point where the vice-President can claim that one of the most widely used and tested medications is "useless" because disregard for science is seen as a virtue.
JD Vance calls ibuprofen "useless medication" and implies it's not "necessary, safe and effective."
