This is what happens when your country is run by incompetent knuckleheads.

These young Republicans are exactly what you would think young Republicans are like if you believed the absolute worst stereotype of young Republicans and Trump supporters.

Opinion | Six surgeons general: Itโ€™s our duty to warn the nation about RFK Jr. We took an oath to declare dangers when we found them. Weโ€™re doing that again today.

This piece poses as a collective statement from former US surgeon generals.

Thanks to Kennedy, we are facing the biggest barrage of misinformation in decades, that will cost us.

He is entitled to his views, but he is not entitled to put our collective health at risk.

These people have found their health care at the center of a shutdown showdown Small business owners, self-employed people and early retirees are among the 24 million Americans who could lose the tax credit

Republicans would rather shut down the government than help millions of Americans afford health care. This article tells some of their stories, and is a good reminder of whatโ€™s at stake.

Tom Homan wants you to know heโ€™s tough on crime and no one gets away. Be scared!, he says.

Unless, of course, itโ€™s him accepting big money bribes in crimes against the country; crimes where heโ€™s caught in the act on video!
Effing corrupt Trump administration!

RFK Jr. rolled out that old chestnut again about how healthy Americans were in the 60โ€™s, so hereโ€™s a fact check.

In 1965:

-42% of American adults smoked; itโ€™s 11% now.

-The infant morality rate was 24.7/1000; itโ€™s 5.6/1000 now.

-Overall life expectancy was 70 years; it's about 77 years now.

There have been downward revisions of jobs reports before, but absolutely NOTHING like this. This is astonishingly unprecedented in scale. If this happens to July's numbers too, it will easily be revised to job losses. I'm morbidly curious about wtf is behind this, and I hope there's more reporting.

Why is it acceptable for the president to use taxpayer money to fly overseas and cut a ribbon at his own golf course?

Donโ€™t normalize this abuse of office. Itโ€™s blatant corruption.

Trump plunges the US into a new war In fewer than six months in office, the self-proclaimed anti-war president has engrossed the US into a new war in the Middle East

"Trump has spent the last five months vowing that the Ukraine-Russia war would never have happened if he was president, vowing that the Israel-Gaza war would never have happened if he was president. And yet the reality is that not only has he not avoided war, but heโ€™s plunged us into a new one."

Kristi Noem must resign. She has deported a four year old with cancer, detained a U.S. marshal, and arrested two members of Congress. Sheโ€™s lost the confidence of the American people. ICE must stop terrorizing our communities.

For decades, Sec. Kennedy has spread lies about vaccines. Now, his misinformation will lead to preventable illness & death.

Firing independent experts is a dangerous move that makes it harder for Americans to access vaccines that are safe, effective & essential to saving lives.
