๐Ÿ”” Attention Michiganโ€™s local governments, K-12 schools, community colleges and universities!

Matt Hall has all but said he wonโ€™t deliver you a budget by the statutory deadline of July 1.

Meanwhile, the Senate Democratsโ€™ budget has been passed for weeks.

Ben Franklin on inoculation, after his son died from smallpox.

โ€œIn 1736, I lost one of my sons, a fine boy of four years old, by the small-pox, taken in the common way. I long regretted bitterly, and still regret that I had not given it to him by inoculationโ€.

BREAKING: the heroes at Susman Godfrey sue the Trump administration over the illegal retaliation against them

They have more integrity in their pinky finger than these other firms that have been capitulating have in their entire partnerships

And kudos to the team at Munger for representing them

Did Trump help insiders cash in on his tariff flip-flopping?
YouTube video by Senator Elizabeth Warren Did Trump help insiders cash in on his tariff flip-flopping?

I'm calling for an investigation into whether President Trump manipulated the market to benefit his Wall Street donorsโ€”all while working people and small businesses paid the price.

Did Trump help insiders cash in on his tariff flip-flopping? It sure looks like corruption.

AFRICOM commander Gen. Langley tells senators that China is "trying to replicate" USAID programs in Africa as the US scales back USAID.

"They're trying to use that as an extension of the Belt and Road Initiative to gain favor by the African countries," Langley said.

Wow who couldโ€™ve guessed that this would happen

Itโ€™s almost as if USAID was a pillar of American soft power and influence in the world

Itโ€™s almost as if it was entirely predictable that Americaโ€™s adversaries would work to fill the void left by USAIDโ€™s destruction

The โ€œmethods for doing soโ€ are (1) getting two thirds of Congress and three fourths of the states to repeal the 22nd Amendment and (2) declaring himself king.

Thatโ€™s it.

Stop treating this despotic bullshit as if itโ€™s some worthwhile thought experiment we have to consider as legitimate.

Frightening that the POTUS and his National Security staff insist on downplaying the threats to our nationโ€™s security and putting service memberโ€™s lives at risk by making secret operations details accessible to anyone
