Wow. This is what happens when a country prosecutes their president for coup and crimes.

I don't know who needs to hear this, but we didn't have multiple plane crashes per week under President Biden.

Yosemite halts camping reservations, with no timetable for their return Yosemite halts camping reservations, with no timetable for their return at a time when federal employees are being laid off

Gift link because soo few people subscribe to local papers, and the impact of the Musk/Trump cuts is worth everybody knowing about.

JUST IN: Another medical horror story in an affidavit from a USAID employee stationed overseas. Says his pregnant wife was not medevac-ed for emergency health care because of directives from DC. Took intervention of a U.S. senator to reverse — but was too late. s3.documentcloud.org/documents/25...

It's annoying how clearly this is going to play out.

They gut the FAA.
Therefore, the FAA can't do its job well because it was gutted.
Therefore, they say "The FAA sucks, we have to privatize it." which is what Project 2025 wants to do. They're manufacturing the crises for their end goal.

The fact that MAGA is okay with Elon Musk having their personal identify information including bank accounts, tax returns, and social security number because they believe it makes liberals cry is some next level ish.

Wait. Have @doge and Elon just been pulling numbers from usaspending.gov ?

Then releasing it as if they discovered it ?

Brilliant if true. Absolutely brilliant. Fooled me.

Very Trump like too.

Any usaspending.gov experts out there that can tell us ?

When’s the last time we could say the Blazers are winning games bc of their defense?

If Matisse could find his way back, that adds an All-NBA defender. Imagine him and Tou wreaking havoc together.

FACTS: "There are proposals from Republicans to cut $2.3 trillion from Medicaid."

THIS is what it would do: It would destroy Medicaid. It wouldn't fight inflation. It wouldn't bring anybody's prices down. It would just steal people's health care

Hands Off Our Medicaid

About that Vaccine Study RFK Cited At His Confirmation Hearing Kennedy used a study from his allies to defend his discredited claims about vaccines and autism.

ICYMI, during his confirmation hearing, RFK cited a study:

- by a scientist who has had past work on vaccines retracted, lost his job for anti-vax stuff, and runs a research “institute” out of a residential address
- in a “journal” from an obviously grifty LLC run by his allies

Today’s show was my last at CNN. My closing message: It’s never a good time to bow down to a tyrant… don’t give in to the lies. Don’t give in to fear. Hold on to the truth… and hope.

Joe Rogan’s theory of politics being “I’m just a little podcast man who just asks questions” is starting to ring hollow even for some folks in his audience.

This same Christian Nationalist symbol is tattooed on the guy they just confirmed. Hegseth has raged against Muslims while drunk in public. He’s told racist jokes about Mexicans according to his sister-in-law. We know what he’s about and why he has that tattoo. So disgraceful.

UPDATE: Secret Service agents — not ICE — were denied entry at a Chicago school despite initial CPS reports, a CPS source said.

Secret Service agents were looking for an 11-year-old who posted an anti-Trump video, the source said. https://buff.ly/3EatFDz
