Does she ever sleep at night. The people under her command are killing people, terrorizing communities. Shame on Noem.

RFK Jr. is a threat to public health. People will die because he is firing experts and replacing them with people who share his whacko views.

Kennedy Fires N.I.H. Scientist Who Filed Whistle-Blower Complaint

I missed this earlier this week, but the Directors of NIAID, NICHD, NIMHD, & NINR were all fired. The NIAID Director, Mazzaro, was likely fired in retaliation for speaking out against the anti-vaccine moves made by the administration.

News today that ICE shot a woman is chilling. The videos online show that there are some abusive, masked thugs masquerading as law enforcement.

Nobody deserves this. The courts need to step in.

Of course, Trump will ignore laws he doesn't like.

โ€œTerrible things are happening outside. Poor helpless people are being dragged out of their homes. Families are torn apart. Men, women, and children are separated. Children come home from school to find that their parents have disappeared.โ€

The obscene face of Christian Nationalism: outlandish untaxed wealth in defiance of Jesus. Oh, and this time, slave laborers, too! Glory!

Just remember, for any money you give to Heaven, there is always a 100% handling fee here on Earth.

At least somebody in GA is standing up to RFK jrโ€™s disastrous policies. Some of the doctors in Middle GA are feeding right into it. Itโ€™s already causing me and my family minor problems. TY Senator Warnock!!!!

Will the U.S. Treasury release a $1 silver coin honoring Trump. A Treasury design was released. His profile on one side, his defiant "Fight, fight, fight" on the other.

Federal law (31 U.S.C. ยง 5112) and the 2020 redesign act say that portraits of living persons are prohibited on Treasury coins.

Iโ€™m a US citizen and a veteran. ICE arrested me for no reason. Jailed for three days without an explanation or ability to notify anyone, George Retes argues the only path to healing starts with the government taking accountability for its actions.

"I believe that Americans would agree that the government canโ€™t just make people disappear without any process or explanation. Second, because I want to give the government a chance to admit that they were wrong.

So far the government has not done so."

Trump Casually Golfs His Way Through Yet Another National Crisis The presidentโ€™s Saturday outing comes as his administration throws the kitchen sink at Democrats, blaming the Left for at least 750,000 federal workers being either furloughed or working without pay.

More than 750,000 federal workers are either furloughed or working without pay after Republicans and Democrats failed to reach a funding deal, and Donald Trump is playing golf.

Federal agents hurled tear gas at people on a busy Logan Square street, outside a grocery store and near an elementary school.

Reckless, undertrained ICE hires are a danger to everyone. This is terrorism against US citizens.

When this is over (and it will be over), we will look back at this era in history and realize we had some of the dumbest people ever running this country for a hot minute....

....and we will suddenly realize how important it is to vote for smart people who have true accomplishments and can listen.
