CDC backpedals on vaccines and autism, despite earlier assurances from RFK Jr. The CDC, under the direction of an unqualified health secretary, is now promoting claims that flunk Logic 101.

Walmart spent $35.3B on stock buybacks from 2019 to 2024, enough to give each of its 2.2M employees annual bonuses of $2,719.

Last year, Walmart CEO Doug McMillon pocketed $27.4M — 930x the company's median employee pay of just $29,469.

Textbook corporate greed.

The President of the United States is threatening to go to war with an American city.

This is not a joke. This is not normal.

Donald Trump isn't a strongman, he's a scared man. Illinois won’t be intimidated by a wannabe dictator.

Trump Family Amasses $5 Billion Fortune After Crypto Launch The WLFI token traded far above its previous value, confirming—at least on paper—a huge windfall for the president and his sons.

Exclusive: US aid cuts leave food for millions mouldering in storage The food stocks have been stuck inside four U.S. government warehouses since the Trump administration's decision in January to cut global aid programs.

While Elon Musk gets $38 billion in government contracts and Trump gets a $400 million flying palace, food rations that could feed 3.5 million people for a month sit mouldering in warehouses because of U.S. aid cuts.
