Trump just said some federal employees β€œdon’t deserve to be taken care of.” That’s not leadership, it’s cruelty.

Hundreds of thousands of Americans are working or waiting without pay, and the president seems proud of it.

We need a leader who reopens government, not one who weaponizes it.

This 4-year-old's heart is failing. A federal grant that might help him was canceled A Cornell University researcher has been developing an artificial heart for children for more than 20 years. Now, his research is on hold and his lab is shut down.

An artificial heart for children with congenital heart defects was almost finished. Families had waited for years it.

Then, Trump canceled billions in grants for universities β€” including the grant for this device.

The cruelty is endless. www.npr.org/2025/10/09/n...

It’s been this way since Obama was elected president and Republicans led by Mitch McConnell started openly cheating and bragging about it.

Veterans react to Hegseth’s β€˜insulting’ address to generals and admirals Defense secretary’s speech touching on physical fitness and doctrine of lethality was seen as β€˜egotistical’ and β€˜dangerous’

Besides the idiot fuckery of PUBLICLY ANNOUNCING that ALL MILITARY LEADERS will be in ONE PLACE AT THE SAME TIME, this is what the speech is about????

Another headline-grabbing distraction. By sending troops, DJT shifts attention away, AGAIN, from the financial and operational investigations that could expose powerful people and institutions connected to Epstein. It's not just a distraction β€” it’s a message.

The deceptive phrase behind Trump's Medicaid purge How the idea of β€œable-bodied” is abused

"When politicians say 'able-bodied,' it’s a roundabout way of downplaying the challenges faced by people who have been left behind, yet deemed capable enough to contribute to capitalism.

But their language fails to hide the true message: The state does not want to help you."

Comedy. Criticism. Commentary. All protected speech. Pulling Jimmy Kimmel off the air is an outrageous act of censorship.

Feed hungry people of all ages. Provide clean running water to everyone including the indigenous Americans who have none (this just 😑). Welcome immigrants who are escaping cruelty, violence, wars, collapsed economies.

Just be kind.

No, I don’t wish violence on anyone. But let’s not make Charlie Kirk into a saint. He was a mean-spirited hater. Let’s decry assassinations, but save our tears for those worthy of mourning.
