paid for by cuts to reproductive health care
paid for by cuts to Medicare & Medicaid
paid for by cuts to SNAP
paid for by cuts to clean energy projects
paid for by cuts to obesity prevention
paid for by cuts to disaster response

Hannah Neeleman's Ballerina Farm Halts Sale of Raw Milk Due to Bacteria Concerns: Report
Hannah and Daniel Neeleman have paused Ballerina Farm's sale of raw milk following health violations discovered during routine testing. Screenings from summer 2025 showed high levels of coliform, the ...
This is bonkers. MAHA 'farmers' with ecoli tainted raw milk admit they really don't know how to make the stuff after all.
"Producing raw milk takes careful planning from a facility and infrastructure standpoint. Unfortunately, we learned this after the fact."

Do not give these ICE and CBP THUGS more money to brutalize and murder with impunity. The goal should be to get these pigs off our streets and out of our cities. Anything short of that is pointless. Never trust the word of trump and never doubt the monumental cowardice of this republican congress.

Trump goes public with plan to "take over" elections
After the FBI seized 700 boxes of ballots in Georgia, the president calls on Republicans to assert control over voting "in at least 15 places.β
This is important to pay attention to. Trump's saying the quiet part of the plan out loud. With the midterms increasingly looking like a bloodbath for the GOP, he's calling on the Republicans to take over the election. This is what an attempt to end democracy looks like. Read @ariberman.bsky.social
