Here's a scandal you may not have heard about: Trump wants to pay AI companies to deny seniors on Medicare treatments their doctors say they need.

What would actually improve Texansβ health is stopping rural hospitals from closing and expanding healthcare.
But Texas Republicans only care about serving Trumpβnot the health of Texans.
Listen to @voteannjohnson.bsky.social call out Republicans for their blatant racism against minority communities in Texas. #txlege

The Republican author of the 2021 Texas Congressional maps Joan Huffman said maps were βrace-blind.β
Now Greg Abbott claims they were racist all alongβand should be redrawn to give the GOP an advantage.
So which is it? And why wait until right before primary season?
The disparity btwn whatβs actually happening in Los Angeles and the way itβs being mischaracterized is one of the biggest stress tests of modern media in recent memory. Botted socials, AI, old clips, declining literacyβitβs like seeing a broken emergency response system hit by a storm.

Listen to your voters. Respect their will. Decriminalize marijuana NOW!
BREAKING: Dan Patrick is coming for your THC.
Dan could use a puff or twoβmight help him chill out and mind his own business.

Developing: The House is voting to ban THC tonight.
In the so-called "freedom state," adults should have the right to use cannabinoid products. We allow alcohol and tobaccoβwhy not a gummy or oil to relax or ease pain?
This isnβt political. Itβs about personal freedom.
