Opinion | Yes, Trump and Kennedy are decapitating the CDC, but they're keeping TikTok alive despite a Congressional ban, so Americans will still receive all the health and medical information that they need.

Whether it's Democrats making it harder for kids to get cigarettes or Republicans making it harder for kids to get vaccines, both sides have imposed the will of government on America's children.

My focus group reported feeling squeezed by Trump's tariffs, job layoffs, and Medicaid cuts. But they expressed strong support for his billionaire tax cuts since all of them had bought Powerball tickets and felt good about their chances.

Rise up America 🇺🇸

Translation: We billionaires need massive amounts of electricity for our AI to make us trillionaires and put people out of work, and we thank you for being able to convince so many dopes into paying a lot more on their electric bills over the next few years to make it happen.

Instead of imposing the sanctions he promised he defunded support for the Baltics.

Pathetic but not surprising.

Trump Is Accusing Foes With Multiple Mortgages of Fraud. Records Show 3 of His Cabinet Members Have Them. The White House has targeted opponents, including a Fed governor, for having more than one primary residence on their loan papers. ProPublica found that, in one case, a Trump cabinet secretary got two...

Strong reporting here from ProPublica, which found that three Trump Cabinet members -- at Labor, Transportation and EPA -- call multiple homes their primary residence on mortgages.

That's the same move that led Trump to fire Lisa Cook from her job at the Fed. bit.ly/466yMyI

Two pro-Palestinian protesters have been detained after throwing red liquid over the stand of Israeli defence firm Elbit Systems at a Polish arms fair.

Elbit's presence at the event has drawn criticism due to the use of its weaponry in Gaza, including in the strike that killed a Polish aid worker.

look at the USA, many federal tools abused by trump,ripe for authoritarionism, were cheered on by so called liberals

@jkbjournalist.bsky.social went through all the…old…Epstein Files dumped last night and found many were duplicates to make it seem like a big release.

“This has repeatedly happened as Miami Herald has fought over the past six years to unseal Epstein files,” she says.

Where are the real Files?

The guy that ordered 8 fighter jets to perform a low altitude fly-over in an effort to drown out Epstein survivors is the same guy who wants you to believe he's innocent.

-Immigration cops decide to 'investigate' a 30-minute discrepancy on a time card
-Draw two firefighter crews to a 'remote' location by lying
-Took those crews off an *active* fire that was barely 10% contained
-Arrested two contractors working as firefighters. No one knows where they are now

Firefighters question leaders’ role in ICE raid near Bear Gulch Fire - High Country News Firefighting veterans believe the management team overseeing fire crews played a key role in handing team members over to immigration authorities.

Holy shit:

Stateline spoke to nearly a dozen firefighters, agency staffers and contractors, who said that top officials assigned to the fire deployed the crews to a remote location under false pretenses so federal agents could check their immigration status.

7. At all of the shelters visited in the middle of the night, ProBAR staff witnessed children who had been pulled out of their beds. They were confused and scared. At Hands of Healing Los Fresnos, one young girl was extremely distraught, crying and repeatedly saying that she could not go back to Guatemala. At New Hope McAllen, one young girl was so scared that she vomited and asked to speak with a clinician. At Urban Strategies Alamo, one young teenager was scared that he might end up murdered like one of his family members. At Compass Connection in Harlingen, an attorney was able to meet with only one child. None of these children’s parents in their home country had requested their return. ProBAR’s client and named Plaintiff ARMD was at Compass Connection, but he was transported to a plane without notifying me as his attorney of record.

🚨NEW: Declarations filed in the lawsuit against the rushed attempt to deport 600 Guatemalan children reveals the chaotic way the Trump admin carried out the operation.

Children were taken out of bed after midnight to be rushed onto planes. One girl "was so scared she vomited."

By the time we wake up tomorrow, the United States will own a minority stake in The Smiths.

“rude post“…….

April 20, he wrote: ‘If a trans-identified male is in a female-only space, he is committing a violent, abusive act. Make a scene, call the cops and if all else fails, punch him in the balls.’

In the former official’s opinion, it was more likely that the vessel was carrying migrants on a human smuggling run. It would be impossible to know for sure, however, given that any evidence of drug smuggling was destroyed in the attack.

You know that boat the administration blew up? A former law enforcement official told the NYT the boat seemed to be carrying not drugs but *’migrants *

First ever football match at the Dell.

On this day in 1898 Southampton FC played their first game at the Dell. This photo was taken looking towards the Milton Road end as Saints beat Brighton United 4-1. The Dell would be home to the club until 2001.

I wrote a history of the iconic ground a while ago: historicsouthampton.co.uk/the-dell/

Big news: California, Oregon and Washington State just announced a joint "West Coast Health Alliance" to counter Trump/RFK destruction of our public health system.

As I argued last week (see below), this is becoming a new frontier in Dem Gov resistance to Trump.

The Trump admin dumped half a dozen men with serious criminal records in the Kingdom of Eswatini, where they are being jailed indefinitely despite all having finished serving criminal sentences in the United States. It’s a disturbing situation.

Pritzker: "When did we become a country where it's ok for the US president to insist on national television that a state should call him to beg for anything? Especially something we don't want. Have we truly lost all sense of sanity in this nation that we treat this as normal?"

Pritzker: "Any rational person who has spent even the most minimal amount of time studying human history has to ask themselves one important question: once they get the citizens of this nation comfortable with the current atrocities committed under the color of law, what comes next?"

Days after declaring that women are nothing but "a bunch of holes," Elijah Schaffer proudly announced that his Rift TV network now has its own credentialed White House correspondent.

Sen. Mark Warner, D-Va., the vice chair of the Intelligence Committee, says he was denied a meeting with career intelligence workers because Laura Loomer objected.
