Federal records contradict what FEMA leader told Congress about Texas flood response Funding for FEMA's disaster survivor hotline lapsed the day after the Texas floods, federal records show. It took DHS Secretary Kristi Noem five days to approve more money.

Parts of the Constitution were erased from the Library of Congress website, including the section featuring the foreign emoluments clause.

The removal was blamed on a "coding error."

Here's a reminder of what the clause says, just in case Congress ever decides to enforce it...

Fact check:

mRNA vaccines for respiratory viruses are meant to prevent severe illness (bad Pneumonia).

This means beefing up our immunity in the *lower* respiratory tract, eg the lungs.

Kennedy talks about the *upper* respiratory tract and vaccine efficacy in nonsensical gibberish.

This is the most infuriatingly witless talking point. No history is β€œerased” by the removal of a monument. What he means is β€œwe want to celebrate and honor racism,” but that sounds bad, so we’re supposed to pretend this illiterate goon has some deep interest in the study of history.

One of the few things I'm absolutely sure of is that there's nothing wrong with being trans. We're just a type of person. We deserve equality because all people deserve equality.

A genuinely good part of the old Republican aesthetic is how it sought to play down wealth, an impulse born from Protestant values. You can see this in how Bush dressed and decorated his living spaces

That aesthetic now replaced by gilt detailing designed to remind you that the occupant is wealthy.

What stage of democratic breakdown is it when corporate CEO's have to favor the president with personal gifts in order to ensure favorable treatment from the government?

The Library of Congress got caught quietly altering its online display of the Constitution, removing Sections 9 and 10 of Article I. Trump's least favorite sections which guarantees the right to challenge unlawful detention and requires the government to justify confinement.
