Trump forgets that he hired Powell in the same way that he forgets that he said the new NAFTA, that he negotiated and signed, was the best trade deal ever. Now he tries to blame how terrible it is on others.

This "budget bill" is a transfer horse containing the seeds of dictatorship.

Sunlight kills. What do you think they are hiding?...everything!

White House asks US Supreme Court to block access to DOGE records The Trump administration on Wednesday asked the U.S. Supreme Court to set aside a judge's order requiring Elon Musk's Department of Government Efficiency to answer questions and disclose documents about its operations.

Using that famous chainsaw, Doge has shut down USAID, canceled fed contracts & programs, terminated thousands of fed workers & Trump goes to SCOTUS saying Doge is simply an ‘advisory body exempt from requests for docs under FOIA??’ 🤔

Did you find Kathy's bluesky handle? I'm an old friend of hers but lost her when she left FB. Can you share it?

I had an oregano plant pop up in my yard last year. I guess from bird droppings. I harvested some fresh and in September cut it all way back and hung it to dry in my garage. It much more flavorful than store bought and its free.

I like the rugosa types but the tea and most other types have too many disease and pest issues for me. My former home owner loved them and as they die out, I replace them with fruits and veggies.

Looks like A variagated brunnera.

Keep up the great reporting. Fight the fascists.

Why are we spending billions on jet fighters when they are outdated? Drones are the future...and present.

The current administration still trying to hide information and ugnore the next pandemic, like they did in the last one.

He must want the next pandemic to kill more people.

Let's hope that Americans value there democracy and are will to defend it like the Koreans.

What if the home team loses?

Pentagon pick left Guard after being reported as possible ‘insider threat’ due to tattoo Pete Hegseth was barred from protecting President Biden’s inauguration in 2021 after enlisted soldiers complained that Hegseth’s chest tattoo might signify that he was a white supremacist. The D.C. N...

Pete Hegseth could not even join the Army today because we don’t support extremism in the military.

He was removed from a deployment, got out, then wrote a letter titled “Fuck Biden”. This is not how an Officer behaves. He should not lead the U.S. military.

I try to read for an hour each morning.

And I thought DeVos was bad.

It's like he is daring the senate to confront his unqualified sycophants. At least Gaetz backed out.

Or so you thought...

You don't "become" uninformed. That's everyone's original state. You become misinformed by listening to those with an obvious agenda without critical thinking.
