Sorry, President Trump. We believe in democracy, not authoritarianism.
The House GOP just passed a draconian budget resolution, but despite GOP misinformation, this is just a blueprint, not a final bill. That means thereβs still time to push back against proposed Medicaid cuts and tax breaks for the ultra-wealthy. Hereβs what you need to know. π

Cover of X-Men (2024) issue 12, featuring Puck in the center surrounded by Psylocke, Cyclops, and Guardian, all looking downwards.
Got really busy last week, but I've been catching up on comics. This week's issue of X-Men was pretty good! I love the solidarity between the X-Men and Alpha Flight. It's nice to see their contributions during Fall of X recognized, and I'm glad Scott was ready to help them out...

At @cbr.bsky.social, I reviewed Exceptional X-Men #6, an insightful look at what it's like to be a mutant that can't "pass" as human.

I reviewed Sentinels #5, which has been one of the best series of the current era. I've seen it accused of being "copoganda" by people who clearly never read past a preview. This was never going be a comfortable read but was executed flawlessly.
