The FDA Let Substandard Factories Ship These Medications to the U.S. ProPublica identified more than 150 products that were exempted from import bans since 2013. Our list provides the names of the drugs or ingredients and their manufacturers, many of which are no longe...

NEW: In June, ProPublica reported that the FDA has given more than 20 foreign factories a special pass to send drugs to the U.S. even though they were made at plants the agency had banned.

Today, we’re publishing a list of those exempted drugs.

Spending $200 billion on ICE is a terrible idea I've covered federal law enforcement for two decades. Here are the things that worry me most.

"We’re creating something even more dangerous to the country: A masked monster of a law enforcement agency, one uniquely unsuited for its new power, authority, reach, and funding levels."

JB Pritzker: Blocking arms sales sends Israel ‘the right kind of message’ The Illinois Democrat said he backed the Senate bid to halt Israel arms sales to pressure Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu over Gaza crisis.

Governor Pritzker is right. No more blank checks for Netanyahu’s right-wing government and its military. No more blank checks for war crimes against Palestinians.

Although sentenced to 20 years on the damning evidence in the EpsteinTrumpFiles, Trump is taking steps to give Ghislaine Maxwell a pardon and complete freedom.
As for the victims (the teenage kids who were repeatedly raped), Trump & the GOP couldn’t care less.

"Ghislaine Maxwell remains the only child-rapist in history to receive well-wishes from a president of the United States."

But I was told by everyone on the right that the only person who could deploy the National Guard (or prevent the deployment of the National Guard) was Nancy Pelosi.

This is what happens when you pick The Hitler.

He’s just desperate to declare martial law and start just out right shooting all of the people he hates!

Yeah JD, we remember. We will never forget your boss was best friends with the guy who ran a literal child sex trafficking ring.

And then that guy was "silenced" forever.

And now we will just not talk about anything else until they...

The image shows a message written in large white chalk letters on an asphalt surface, possibly in a parking lot. The text reads: “PRISON WITHOUT DUE PROCESS IS A Concentration CAMP” The words are arranged vertically in a stacked format, with some words in all capital letters for emphasis. A parking space divider line and a concrete wheel stop are visible to the left, and there’s a strip of grass along the right edge.

The CEO of a a multi-trillion dollar company went to the White House, openly handed the US president a gift made of gold, and his company got a special exemption to tariffs the president has illegally imposed.

Also, the Founders took bribery so seriously the Constitution bans it 3 separate times.

Medicare for All - "That's socialism!"

Social Security - "That's socialism!"

Debt free education - "That's socialism!"

Universal childcare - "That's socialism!"

$1 trillion in tax cuts for the richest 1%...

"That's just how it is."

BREAKING: We filed a class action lawsuit against ICE for denying people access to lawyers and subjecting them to inhumane conditions at 26 Federal Plaza in New York.

ICE is illegally holding people here for weeks, often without adequate access to medical care, food, or legal counsel.

It needs a qualifier……

“…..a couple of hundred times a day.”

Trump and Putin will meet in Alaska next week, Trump says President Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin are planning to meet in the United States, multiple sources tell CBS News.

It’s truly depraved for Trump to welcome Vladimir Putin to the US while Putin is actively wanted by the International Criminal Court for war crimes in Ukraine.

Trump calls this a peace summit but it’s just an opportunity to hang out with one of his dictator buddies. www.cbsnews.com/news/trump-a...

A little math about that prison camp in Florida. $450 million per year for 3,000 people is $150,000/person per year. The cost for one person receiving SNAP for one year is $2256, yet they're telling us that's too expensive. threads.com/@unapologeticallyzae

US Senators Wyden, Warren launch probe into UnitedHealth's nursing home practices U.S. Senators Ron Wyden and Elizabeth Warren are launching an investigation into UnitedHealth Group related to allegations that the company secretly paid nursing homes thousands in bonuses to cut hospital transfers of sick residents.

Reports suggest UnitedHealth gave BONUSES to nursing homes for sending fewer people to the hospital, even if they were sick.

Senator Ron Wyden and I are pressing for answers. www.reuters.com/legal/govern...

Heinous.

Stephen Colbert is going SCORCHED EARTH right now. To RFK Jr: “Fuck you, you roid-addled nepo carnie! Fuck you, you roadkill-munching Luddite human slim jim!”

At a time in history when the most influential leaders of the U.S. need to stand up loudly and clearly for the rule of law, democracy, and decency, they are leading the charge in the opposite direction — fawning over the most dangerous authoritarian America has ever witnessed.

Not for one second do I believe this excuse.

Thou Shalt Redact The Names of Epstein's Victims, Not His Accomplices.

South Park omg 😂

I see why he bankrupted casinos.

The President of the United States went on CNBC today and said: He won the 2020 election (he didn’t). He has a 71% approval rating (he doesn’t). The jobs numbers were rigged (they weren’t).

I could say something funny here, but I won’t. It’s just so damn dangerous to have him in the White House.

‘How Much Does Fascism Cost?’: Chaos Erupts at Nebraska GOP Congressman’s Town Hall Over Trump’s Agenda Rep. Mike Flood walked into the University of Nebraska on Monday expecting to sell President Trump’s “One Big Beautiful Bill” to his constituents. Instead, he was met with chants, jeers, and unrele…

“How much does fascism cost?”
That’s what one Nebraskan shouted Monday night as Rep. Mike Flood stood in a storm of boos and chants—defending Trump’s budget, detention camps, and slashed benefits.
The town hall didn’t calm tensions. It exposed them.
And the question still echoes.
