Mark Kelly speaks at a press conference
Mark Kelly: “Jobs are down. Wages are flat. Costs are up & this President is asleep — Like literally, he’s falling asleep on the job. It’s hurting the American people — He’s doing nothing to try to help people with the cost of groceries, rent, & healthcare”

Mamdani: Oftentimes when we win elections, we tell people to go home and just trust us. But the message really has to be that we want you to come along with us… That’s something we’ve been looking to share with New Yorkers: We want to not only win with New Yorkers, but also govern with New Yorkers.

For First Time in Decades, Child Deaths Will Rise This Year
Almost a quarter of a million more children around the world are projected to die in 2025 than in 2024.
This fetid landmark, this historical stain on humanity is primarily due to the stunningly reckless obliteration of America's foreign assistance agency earlier this year.
Led by the richest man on earth. In secret, on a weekend. With zero analysis or discussion of its catastrophic impacts.

American Big Oil Pays More in Taxes Abroad
A new report details how fossil fuel lobbyists have won huge U.S. tax giveaways.
Cheaper for Big Oil to buy Congress than to pay taxes. Let alone pay for the harm of their pollution.

That last point. Cassidy really has enormous leverage if he wants to use it. He would win this fight. Worst case is he winds up losing a primary and spends his 70s (he's 68 now) as a hero to millions. He'll likely never have as much influence over anything again as he has over this right now.

Trump Pardons Developer Prosecuted by His Administration
This summer, Trump administration officials had lauded the indictment of Timothy J. Leiweke as an effort to root out corruption and unfair business practices.
President Trump on Tuesday pardoned Timothy Leiweke, a real estate developer who had been charged by the president’s own Justice Department earlier this year with rigging the bidding process for a sports arena.

The big sticking point in the White House’s health care proposal
For many GOP members, an expansion of abortion restrictions in Obamacare is a must-have in any tentative health care plan.
Anti-abortion groups are pushing to ban abortion coverage for anyone who gets tax credits to pay for health insurance through the Affordable Care Act.
If Congress caves, this would be the first federal ban on private insurance coverage of abortion, and could push care out of reach for millions.

What load of crap JD is spreading. Investment companies bought up millions of housing units after the 2008 junk mortgage crash & rent them for usurious rents.

Let's make one thing crystal clear:
Admiral Mitch Bradley is an American hero, a true professional, and has my 100% support. I stand by him and the combat decisions he has made — on the September 2 mission and all others since.
America is fortunate to have such men protecting us. When this @DeptofWar says we have the back of our warriors — we mean it.

US admiral to retire amid military strikes in Caribbean and tensions with Venezuela
Alvin Holsey just took over the US southern command late last year for a position that normally lasts three years
Remember 6 weeks ago when Admiral Alvin Holsey, head of the U.S. military’s southern command, abruptly decided to retire?
Makes me think at least one top-ranking officer knows what a war crime is.
