With the exception of LeBron James, I cannot think of a single billionaire who would end up where they are now if we just rolled it back and had them do it again

This is an unfortunate new EXTRA challenge in covering breaking news โ€” and an important reason why historically federal law enforcement agencies try hard to be responsible, authoritative, and not, you know, torch their reputations for likes and LULZ:

This is supposedly a stripper clip with the rounds found at the scene of the shooting in Dallas today.

Itโ€™s like someone is intentionally trying to see what level of dumb shit the American people will accept as truth.

Call me old fashioned, but if you canโ€™t pronounce the name of a drug, you should not be making policies to restrict it.

in states whose GOP governors are voluntarily sending National Guard troops to the capital โ€” including Ohio โ€” some 30,000 people are unhoused. The daily cost of operating safe shelter for all 30,000 would be less than one day of the D.C. occupation.

Crime Festers in Republican States While Their Troops Patrol Washington

Memphis, TN, has a murder rate 2x that of Washington, D.C.
Texas, Ohio, and Missouri also have cities with higher rates of violent crime than D.C.

Yet the governors in these states sent National Guard troops to the District while not doing the same in their own cities.

In 1970, Kent University students who were protesting the Vietnam War were shot and killed by soldiers from the Ohio National Guard.

The event resulted in 4 deaths and 9 injuries and was a defining moment of the era.

Is the Trump regime going to repeat this tragedy in every state under siege now?

The Governor of Ohio sent armed national guard troops with limited crowd control training to put down peaceful protests on the Kent State campus. As a result, 4 students were killed and 9 were wounded. Trumpโ€™s use of the military and ICE will be much worse.

Please share this link as it is very important that colleagues and the general public are aware that since the end of April all NIH funding at Northwestern University remains frozen.

Another update: Northwestern University has still not received any funds from NIH since March 26, 2025.

We still have not received written communication stating that the funds are frozen, the reason why, or what can be done to restore it.

According to the HHS TAGGS site (https:/taggs.hhs.gov/ ), the total of unexpended balances of
the NIH grants that have been terminated is $550 M (spreadsheet attached). These are formally
terminated grants. This does not include "paused" grants at Columbia, Harvard, Brown, Cornell,
and Cornell Weill Medical School nor the large amount of funding that has been withheld from
Northwestern University (and perhaps others institutions) through blocking payments at the level of
the Payment Management System. Since you note the involvement of "several buckets", it does
not seem that several billions of dollars is an exaggeration.

Mike DeWine has chosen to send the Ohio National Guard to DC to help Trump distract from the Epstein files. DeWine is complicit.

DeWine is protecting pedophiles.

This isn't even debatable. There is no counter-argument.
