Disinformation is now trumpeted on the CDC's website:

Your regular reminder that we desperately need to overturn Citizens United and get big money out of politics.

The average age of U.S. homebuyers is now 56, up from 49 last year.

Trump has made an estimated $3.4 billion in profit from his presidency.

As he rakes in cash, he’s also picking Americans’ pockets by pushing chaotic tariffs, gutting Medicaid, and giving tax cuts to billionaires and corporations that rip off consumers.

What an abomination.

The gap between teacher pay and other college graduates’ pay is the highest it’s been in over four decades.

Is there a “teacher shortage,” or a shortage of jobs that treat educators with the pay, dignity, and support they deserve?

Job growth is slowing to levels not seen since the pandemic.

Inflation is up as more tariffs hit.

Meanwhile, Trump is opening new golf courses, planning for a $200M White House ballroom, and diverting taxpayer dollars to renovate his "free" jet from Qatar.

Corporation For Public Broadcasting To Shut Down Operations After Loss Of Federal Funding The CPB will lay off staffers at the end of September following the loss of federal funding.

As corporate media bows to Trump, public broadcasting has never been more important.

A free press exists to question authority and help the public question it as well.

But authoritarians insist that they must never be questioned.

This is the cost of tyranny. deadline.com/2025/08/corp...

Our nation's federal employees are more than just numbers on a spreadsheet.

They make sure we have clean water.

They protect us from financial fraud.

They provide healthcare to our communities.

They make our government actually work for people.

Hurricane Science Was Great While It Lasted The U.S. is hacking away at support for state-of-the-art forecasting.

Just a year ago, the U.S. was better at predicting storms’ tracks than it had ever been. But now, @zoeschlanger.bsky.social reports, the country is rapidly losing state-of-the-art forecasting, just in time for hurricane season’s busiest months:

Under Trump's Big Ugly Bill, America's poorest families lose about $1600 per year.

The richest households gain about $12,000 per year.
