If your newspaper is giving Donald Trump softer headlines and gauzier coverage than People Magazine, that should be a bit of a wake up call.

Republicans Are Pulling the Plug on American Healthcare We must protect and expand coverage, invest in safe staffing, and fund community hospitals, writes Dr. Bryce Pulliam.

The “One Big Beautiful Bill Act” forces families to choose between insurance, groceries, or rent. This leads to delayed care, skipped doctor visits, and missed medications due to costs, resulting in worsening health and unnecessary suffering or death.

Lil Marco behind him?

WTF. Everyone, cameras out. Get it all on video.

Remember when we saw video of big plastic bags being tossed out of the Lincoln bathroom window?

FBI: "We didn't zip tie children."

REPORTER: "Here's a photo of a zip tied 14 year old."

FBI" "OK, we didn't zip tie YOUNG children."

"But Her Emails" he cried softly

Rep. Seth Moulton the admin's briefing on Trump's boat strikes: "I found their justification for what they're doing so flimsy that it makes the case for the Iraq War look like a slam dunk. It was that bad."

Zelenskyy:

"25 manufacturers are working to enable [the Russians] to produce the Oreshnik - not in large numbers, but still, about 6 per year.Twenty-five manufacturers,Russian companies. And they are not under sanctions.It is very important to sanction these companies.I believe this is crucial."

You make running for office look like a blast

Garamendi: If you look at the negotiations, there was a winner — it was China — and there was a loser — it was Trump… Trump went into that as a loser, and he came out of it as an even bigger loser. The fact of the matter is that China dominated that discussion.

Starting tomorrow, 22 million Americans will see their monthly health insurance premium costs more than double

Once again, if Trump really wanted to sanction Russia, he has an ideal vehicle crying out to be used; the Graham-Blumenthal act. However, he will not even allow Senate Republicans to vote on it. The only conclusion is that he really does not want to hurt Putin

There are a lot of important threads in here, but Trump getting one of his billionaire friends to fund the military really gets me. I want the troops to be paid. But a privately funded army, which evades Congress’s power to oversee how the $ is spent, should ring all our republican alarms.

life makes so much more sense - fight, freeze or fawn

Independents blame Trump and the GOP for the shutdown by a 2:1 margin.

Trump’s approval with people under 30 has completely cratered.

63% of Americans disapprove of Trump’s management of the federal government.

Trump administration slashes number of refugees, prioritizes Afrikaners The State Department will also no longer manage the resettlement of refugees.

This doesn’t just gut refugee admissions — it creates a race-based system that prioritizes white South Africans over people facing real danger in their home countries.

An insult to everything we stand for. Trump is burying Ronald Reagan’s vision of America as a “shining city on a hill.”

Johnson enjoys inflicting pain, suffering, (and worse) upon others. This is classic sadism. And sadism NEVER exists in isolation, it's always accompanied by sociopathy-psychopathy (ASPD).

Accusing Jordan Silverman A D.C. teaching assistant was accused of molesting up to 15 kids. Multiple law enforcement agencies cleared him. But his nightmare was just beginning.

Re-upping this piece once more because it was a long time in the making. But also because after he was wrongly accused by media outlets, law firms, and politicians, Silverman deserves to have as many people read about his vindication as possible.

Worth noting that Trump came out and admitted that he will not do anything about Chinese purchases of "sanctioned" Russian oil. Its too important to China, it seems. www.politico.eu/article/dona...

Glad to see @mmasnick.bsky.social wrote about Kavanaugh stops — and thanks for citing my coverage:

The intimidation is routine

Who had guns and armor?

Juarez teacher Liz Winfield shared a powerful #CupOfJoe. She, along w/ @ctulocal1.bsky.social is standing up to defend students and neighborhoods, because federal terror has no place in Black, brown and immigrant communities.
