The world’s first trillionaire initiated a move that has left more than half a million people dead, most of whom are children.

In New Jersey, a single mother struggled to figure out how to feed her two young sons with $50.
In Oklahoma, a 61-year-old woman questioned whether driving to a food pantry was worth the gas money.
And in Colorado, a woman grabbed food from a Walmart dumpster.

While US venture capitalists were buying monkey jpegs, and DOGE coins, and figuring out how to get Black women fired, and tweeting about white birthrates, and trying to mandate which bathroom trans kids should use, China was making progress on climate change and taking the lead in a real industry.

I hope the respondents all understood the difference between "achieving financial independence" and "having enough money to do the things you want to do"!

Um... what is the difference, exactly?

Hello journalists. If you report this you gotta say that under the Constitution he has no power to do it. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

It's important to note that this is not about installing some early warning system that might save lives, this is about sending people to save lives of dying children after the catastrophe had already occurred.

Twelve hours of suspenseful "Will they? Won't they?" reportage about the House. Before that, same with Senate.

Simple rule β€” GOP quislings always bow to Trump β€” made these foreseeable from the get-go.

(Will stop believing in this rule, when there's an exception to it. So far, none.)

Washington, D.C., has a population roughly equivalent to Alaska's.

And it has zero senators. If D.C. had senators, the GOP megablil bill would have failed today.

Instead, Murkowski got carve-outs and money for Alaska, and then voted to subject DC to the bill

STAGGERING: This new study of 133 countries is the first to estimate the impact of all USAID’s work. In 2 decades, it has saved *92M* lives. Current cuts, if not reversed, are forecast to cost up to *14M* lives thru 2030. www.thelancet.com/journals/lan...

It shouldn't get lost that just today, Senate Republicans have voted to close nursing homes, close rural hospitals, and cut food stamp benefits for children and veterans.

I see your point, but aren't they separable questions? I am against lots of specific cuts, but I'm also against trump/musk's program and strategy (and the world view that leads to them).

As an aside, i hate the indexing/ search on the nytimes website! This story is all over the front page, but on the site it's "trump goes after universities" and no links to the medicaid package. I search "medicaid" & get an opinion piece by brooks and a bunch of older articles. (I'm a subscriber).

Usually when something is reposted it includes the header info of the original post. I suppose what happened here is trump copied and pasted it.
