Yes, RFK Jr. said autistic children will never pay taxes, hold a job, play baseball or write a poem The U.S. health secretary was giving a press briefing about CDC findings on the growing number of autism diagnoses, calling them "preventable."

How do the attorneys who are blocking ethical practices in DC get disbarred? For example, Bondi.

@americanbar.org when will Bondi be disbarred for asking attorneys to commit perjury for the administration?

A Republican-backed bill would upend voter registration. Here are 8 things to know Congressional Republicans are pushing legislation that would make sweeping changes to voter registration, including requiring those signing up to present documents proving U.S. citizenship.

The GOP can save their breath, because the SAVE act has NOTHING to do with saving anyone but Republicans who fear their own voters.

This is voter disenfranchisement, pure and simple.

Tell Republicans to save it for someone dumber, because we’re not falling for it! Hands off her vote!

Who Does the SAVE Act Impact? 

1 in 3 American Women lack proof of citizenship documents with their current legal name.

69M married women could lose their voting rights if the SAVE Act is passed. Transgender individuals too.

Why? Absent a valid passport, you must present a birth certificate *with the same name as your registration* to be registered.

This is insane!

Screenshot of three tweets from @JamesSurowiecki dated 2 April 2025. (1) "It's also important to understand that the tariff rates that foreign countries are supposedly charging us are just made-up numbers. South Korea, with which we have a trade agreement, is not charging a 50% tariff on U.S. exports. Nor is the EU charging a 39% tariff." (2) "Just figured out where these fake tariff rates come from. They didn't actually calculate tariff rates + non-tariff barriers, as they say they did. Instead, for every country, they just took our trade deficit with that country and divided it by the country's exports to us.

So we have a $17.9 billion trade deficit with Indonesia. Its exports to us are $28 billion. $17.9/$28 = 64%, which Trump claims is the tariff rate Indonesia charges us. What extraordinary nonsense this is." (3) "Even given that it's Trump, I cannot believe they said "We'll just divide the trade deficit by imports and tell people that's the tariff rate." And then they decided to set our tariffs by just cutting that totally made-up rate in half! This is so dumb and deceptive."

Wow. Just wow. How Trump set the tariff rates. This is blithering, staggering, mind-boggling, jaw-cracking, gums-bleeding stupidity.

Waltz and staff used Gmail for government communications, officials say Trump’s national security adviser is trying to manage his way out of a crisis. But new revelations about his team’s operational security are piling up in the inbox.

Just the latest example of careless data security practices by top Trump staff who are already under fire for SignalGate - insecurely conducting military operations.

What would cut government waste? Stop giving contracts to corporations and businesses. Fund farmers. Fund safety and security and healthcare for all. We pay for it. Social security, Medicare, and housing should not be unavailable. Education should be free for everyone- since we pay for it.
