Canada has made trade deals with China. The EU now has deals in place with most of South America, and the US is being left out in the cold. #AmericaLast

Education Budget Battle Brewing in D.C. South Dakota schools could lose more than $18 million

Recently, South Dakota saw Governor Larry Rhoden announce what he describes as a β€œflat” budget for public schools in fiscal year 2026 (FY26). Calling it flat is misleading…

If that weren’t concerning enough, even deeper cuts may be coming out of Washington.

A woman recording an ICE agent tells him "Shame on you."

The agent responds, "Have you all not learned from the past couple of days?"

"Learned what?" she asks

Then he knocks her phone out of her hand

Opinion | Six surgeons general: It’s our duty to warn the nation about RFK Jr. We took an oath to declare dangers when we found them. We’re doing that again today.

"Secretary Kennedy is entitled to his views. But he is not entitled to put people’s health at risk. He has rejected science, misled the public and compromised the health of Americans." wapo.st/3VTALll

Pritzker: It appears they are amassing ICE officers… It’s been reported that about 300 officers are planning to come in and do what they did in LA β€” terrorize neighborhoods and cause mayhem. Their plan is to create enough chaos on the ground that troops will have to be called in

ICYMI: watch this highlight reel from RFK Jr’s Senate hearings yesterday. What you heard is real. He was completely unhinged and disconnected from reality.

It’s clear, Kennedy is dangerous and should never have been confirmed.

Spencer Kuvin, Epstein's victims' lawyer, says the FBI interviewed 40+ girls, some just 14, and prepared a 54-count indictment. Then came the secret plea deal that let Epstein walk. Those interviews are in the files. Kuvin says Alan Dershowitz scoured the girls' MySpace pages to smear them as liars.

100,000 Virginians could lose their health insurance due to costs as out-of-pocket premiums rise 30% to 50% when ACA enhanced tax credits expire at the end of this year.Β 

I’m cosponsoring legislation with @underwood.house.gov to make those tax credits permanent. Read more in @virginiamercury.com ⬇️

A family opened a town’s first bookstore. A bathroom bill is driving them away. The Phelans ran the only bookstore in Vermillion, South Dakota. They sold it and moved after a new law would’ve required their daughter to use a boy’s bathroom.

The Phelans ran the only bookstore in Vermillion, South Dakota.

But after the state passed a measure preventing transgender young people like their daughter from using girls’ bathrooms, they sold it and moved away.

Where are the hard-working Americans who screamed, β€œThey’re stealing our jobs”?

You’re getting your wish. Immigrant workers aren’t showing up, and farm owners are hiring.

The landlord gutting America’s hospitals Medical Properties Trust buys up hospitals and then leases them back to health care systems. Dozens of its hospitals have gone belly up.

One reason so many American hospitals are struggling? Investors buy them up, then suck them dry, charging such high rents that services are gutted.
Reveal explores what happened to one Louisiana hospital when Medical Properties Trust came to town. www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

Rasmus Jarlov on Twitter writes: "There is nothing to celebrate. Moving from average tariffs of less than 2% on trade between the USA and Europe to 15% under today’s deal will inevitably lead to inflation. Almost everything will become more expensive in both Europe and the USA, and we will all be worse off. The economic illiteracy in the White House is doing serious damage to the West."

Stylish Skunk replies: "I have a feeling you have 0 idea what you're talking about.

In fact I know you do."

Rasmus Jarlov responds: "Of course. I am former minister of trade in Denmark and you are an anonymous Twitter profile. You probably know a lot more than me. For sure."

Kennedy to oust care task force, WSJ reports; HHS says no decision yet U.S. Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is planning to remove all the members of an advisory panel that determines what cancer screenings and other preventive health measures insurers must cover, the Wall Street Journal reported on Friday, citing people familiar with the matter.

RFK Jr. plans to fire all 16 members of the U.S. Preventive Services Task Force calling them too β€œwoke”. The panel sets free coverage rules for cancer screenings & more. A key meeting was quietly canceled.

BREAKING: We just subpoenaed the Epstein files.

As a survivor of sexual assault, I know the pain & trauma survivors carry. This subpoena is a massive victory for every survivor who has ever been silenced, dismissed, or harmed.

Bondi must release the files immediately. We demand accountability.
