I hope someone gets these stats to Donald. They will drive him crazy. (Well, crazier.)

Donald Trump’s State of the Union this week drew an audience of 28 million television viewers.

Joe Biden’s 2024 State of the Union drew an audience of 32.2 million viewers.

If you hit a cop, you go to jail, unless you're white. Then you get a pardon and maybe a cabinet job.

What musicians did after an executive order on DEI led to the cancellation of U.S. Marine Band collaboration After an executive order ending DEI initiatives, the U.S. Marine Band canceled a concert featuring young musicians of color. Veterans stepped in to mentor the aspiring musicians.

This is how people counter dumb executive orders…a great story. www.cbsnews.com/news/concert...

Conservatives who lost the GOP to Trump telling Democrats who to nominate need to take a seat. Like 2020, after Trump the electorate will be looking for competent governance in 2028. There are plenty of successful Democratic governors to choose from, Whitmer, Beshear, Newsome and several others.

Chaos at the V.A.: Inside the DOGE Cuts Disrupting the Veterans Agency Clinical trials have been delayed, contracts canceled and support staff fired. With deeper cuts coming, some are warning of potential harms to veterans.

β€œScientists are already considering moving trials to other institutions, which will mean veterans are no longer first in line for participation, and could cause millions of dollars in research funds to go to waste…”

The quote is actually about the late GOP Rep. Jim Collins of Dallas. β€œHe’s a really great guy but if he were any dumber, you’d have to water him once a week.”

They want to gut Medicaid, and give billionaires more tax breaks. That’s the real story.

Budzinski: "We saw just yesterday another round of layoffs at the VA -- 1,400 more people. When we're trying to address veterans suicide rates, when you're cutting jobs for folks that are actually answering those suicide hotlines, how is that in the service of our veterans?"

If you’re cheering for a South African sociopath to fuck over US military veterans then you should probably stop with that America first bullshit.

I’ve always liked The Atlantic. But since they took over Washington Week it’s been abysmal. Gwen Ifill is spinning in her grave. Trump hasn’t β€œpivoted” toward Putin. He’s been Putin’s puppet for 10 years.
