Just to reiterate: What this administration is doing right now is orders of magnitude more dangerous for academic freedom and free speech than anything the right has spent the last 30 years complaining about.

Disgusting.

First, Epstein and Maxwell run a sex trafficking and child rape ring. Rich and famous people involved or turning a blind eye.

Then, collusion leading to slap on the wrist for Epstein.

Now, a Trump-Maxwell coverup.

Throughout: A betrayal of the victims.

Forty percent of the nearly 112,000 arrests by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) from Jan. 20 through late June were of convicted criminals. That’s compared with 53% of the nearly 51,000 arrests for same time period in 2024 under the Biden administration.(States Newsroom)

This is a meaningless trick. A court cannot violate rule 6(e), which prohibits public disclosure.

Such a great movie. If you hear otherwise do yourself a favor and go see it. It is about simple kindness. Period. Congrats @JamesGunn Superman lifts all spirits.

It’s opening weekend of my friend James Gunn's movie ..
Superman. My son went to go see it with his children and can't stop raving. Can't wait to see it myself!

Deadly incompetence.

But as Texas rescue crews raced to save lives, FEMA officials realized they needed Noem’s approval before sending additional assets.Noem didn’t authorize deployment of Urban Search & Rescue teams until Monday,more than 72 hours after flooding began, multiple sources told CNN.

There is something incredibly special about listening in the next room as your daughter sings the same lullaby to your grandchild that you sang to her.

Putin is now taunting Trump. Not good. Making Trump (and America) look weak.

Nope. It is 2030. And I have said repeatedly I am never running for office again. Blessed by almost 40 years of political service. Now busy with helping in different ways.

Hey. Guess what? All you had to do was vote no and they would not have happened. Phony BS.

β€œThough he voted for the legislation, Mr. Hawley said he was so opposed to the Medicaid provisions that he intended to spend the next two years trying to get them overturned.” NYT

It is hard to pick out the most insulting and cynical part of this bill. In the running…the limited deduction on tips and Social security benefits are phased out in 2028…right after the next Presidential election. Tax breaks for the wealthiest…are permanent.

McGovern: "A family making less than $50,000 a year? They get less than $1 a day in tax cuts. You can't buy a damn cup of coffee with that. But those making a million dollars or more? They'll get more than $250 a day in tax breaks ... that's how rigged this bill is to benefit the wealthy."

From Politico…note the word HAPPILY!! β€œDuring our interview, Thune happily pointed out that the Senate extracted more Medicaid spending cuts than the House β€” a counter to House conservatives who frequently complain that the Senate GOP Conference is full of RINOs who hate cutting spending.”

Remember, while of course Lisa’s vote was a disappointment, remember McCormick barely beat Casey and he had no qualms about selling out his folks. And Budd in NC, Cornyn in TX, Moreno in Ohio. They are beatable. AND Ron Johnson in WI!!!

Frankly it is notable that it only took them 6 months to drastically cut healthcare for over 11 million Americans while making sure the richest got richer.
