This is terrible.

The Trump administration not only fired Coast Guard Admiral Linda Fagan, but a Trump official told her she had only three hours to vacate her house.

Donโ€™t ever tell me Republicans support the military.

THIS IS IT. The special general elections for Floridaโ€™s 1st & 6th Congressional Districts are on APRIL 1, 2025. If we flip these seats, we can STOP Project 2025. No excuses! Mark your calendars! Show up!

Do we need a movie where Danny Ocean, Ethan Hunt, and Nicolas Cage team up to stop a villainโ€”middle aged white man with foreign accentโ€”and his teenage minions from pulling off the biggest heist in history, stealing everyoneโ€™s data from the govt?

Will that get the public to treat it as actually bad?

Jasmine Crockett: "The problem is that Americans thought it was okay to take a full fledged criminal and make him the President of the US and then they want to act aghast when he does criminal things. Let me tell you, we have a thug in charge of the US and if we don't wake up we may not have a US"

Devastating for scientists and their research, and everyone who benefits from that research.

Iโ€™m not sure if everyone outside academia is aware that a delay or โ€œpauseโ€ in grant funding often means the researchers themselves are lost from the field, along with their expertise.

One Colorado Republican in Congress is criticizing President Trump for pardoning J6 rioters who violently attacked police. It's not former police officer Rep. Gabe Evans. He's still in line with Trump. It's fellow freshman Rep. Jeff Hurd. #copolitics
