Oh. So now the “school choice” & local/parental control posse now wants attendance policy based on statewide test scores. Mkaaaay.

Katie Pavlich: Why is the left radicalizing students to leave school when the country has a 54% rate of not being able to read?

BTC: The lowest literacy rates are in red states.

Katie: That's actually not true.

Howard Lutnick continued his relationship with Jeffrey Epstein even AFTER Epstein was convicted of sex trafficking minors. Then, Lutnick lied about it. Why is he still in our government?

He should be held accountable.

Republicans telling women to have more babies feels like coyotes urging hens to have more chickens.

On right the new image Trump had posted outside DOJ. The resemblance between these two is NOT a coincidence.

Opinion | Shocker! SCOTUS Schools POTUS

Trump’s tantrum over SCOTUS tariff ruling demonstrates his mafia worldview — he expects loyalty to him over loyalty to the Constitution. www.nytimes.com/2026/02/21/o...

‘Don’t go to the US – not with Trump in charge’: the UK tourist with a valid visa detained by ICE for six weeks.

The average household lost more than $1,000 to Trump's tariffs.

Now the Court has spoken: this was unlawful all along.

The President owes you an apology - and a refund.

ICYMI:

Voter fraud found in Georgia by America PAC. This is the one that belongs to Elon Musk. When will the FBI raid be⁉️

But Drumpf would’ve passed & received a higher score than anyone, ever. Scores so high the likes of which nobody has ever seen before. 😏

Wild thought: if we don’t want one man yanking tariffs, taxes, and rights around by whim, maybe we rely on a deliberative legislature. Radical concept. Someone should really write that down. Maybe frame it.

At the end of the day, when every dollar of the massive slush fund of taxpayer money Republicans appropriated to DHS in 2025 is audited, we will find it to be the largest govt fraud scandal in history. In addition to ICE reforms, it will more than justify this shutdown.

Donald Trump is going to throw the whole world into chaos with disclosure about extraterrestrials but he won’t let you know who raped kids with Jeffrey Epstein.

I'm pretty sure there's not

HUD moves to end assistance for families with mixed immigration status The proposed rule reflects a similar move in Trump's first term.

A cruel formula for poverty.

In my late-1990s beginning journalism class I showed 1. Absence of Malice 2. Citizen Kane and 3. All The President’s Men. All 3 are now are relevant, yet so irrelevant. ☹️

FCC asks stations for "pro-America" programming, like daily Pledge of Allegiance Brendan Carr wants "patriotic" shows for Trump's yearlong America 250 celebration.

I'm kinda thinking that the FCC's Brendan Carr is the real heir to Joseph Goebbels. At the very least, Carr, like Goebbels, oversees the machinery of disseminating propaganda.

Happy #caturday from Travis & Holly.

The message from the DOJ is unmistakable: Justice is no longer the objective.

Retribution is.

It’s a grift. It’s always a grift.

YouTube video by David Pakman Show TOP MAGA podcaster EXPLODES on Trump: “F*ing bullsh!t lie”

MAGAts believed Drumpf, a swamp creature, would drain the swamp.

Now, they’re realizing that Drumpf is a member of the very class of pedophiles he claimed he would go after.

What I Saw at a Maternity Ward in Kenya After the U.S. Cut Off Food and Foreign Aid Photographs tell a story of two mothers determined to help their babies gain enough weight to leave the hospital — only to face little to no food again.

A maternity ward doctor donated his own blood during surgery to keep a pregnant patient alive.

One woman gained fewer than 10 pounds over her entire pregnancy.

Another collapsed and had seizures during labor.

Dear American consumers: Trump is going to f*ck you over again with a 10% global import tax — just being his feelings got hurt by the big, bad Supreme Court.

What a pathetic loser!

Maine, please free us from this feckless fool.
