7 things the Trump administration could do instead of sending money to Argentina:

- Lower health insurance premiums
- Restore family food assistance
- Cancel student debt
- Fund public media
- Restore USAID
- Fund military child care for 20 years
- Fund the CFPB for 50 years

Yep, it’s the food stamps.

Priorities.

We’ve lost the context PT 3

We’ve lost the context PT 2

We’ve lost the context PT 1

The last 48 hours have shown why people have stopped relying on legacy journalism and have migrated to independent journalists in droves.

The benefit of legacy journalism is supposed to be “editors” and “factchecking” and they can’t even get that right in a rush to blame trans people.

Our only real enemy is the belief that this world is filled with enemies to be conquered rather than filled with neighbors to be loved.

Big sigh. Watch this.

Can you see why the Yankees’ moment of silence, the lowered flags, the promise of the Presidential Medal of Freedom, feel like a gut punch to the very people he spent years targeting?

No one wished death on this man, but what we’re seeing right now is too f*cking much.

The Shameful Christian Idolatry and Fraudulent Martyrdom of Charlie Kirk As news of his shooting broke, the Jesus-washing of Charlie Kirk’s life by Conservative Christians began almost immediately.

Charlie Kirk has left a hateful, dehumanizing legacy of words that Conservative Christians are either choosing to ignore in their zeal to canonize him, or they simply share his racist, phobic, misogynist, Islamophobic, antisemitic, supremacist sentiments.

Deeply disturbing rhetoric is spreading from influential MAGA figures (including the President of the United States and the owner of that other website). They have no idea who the shooter is, and many of these same people mocked Democrats when they were victims of political violence in the past. 1/

The attack on Charlie Kirk is disgusting, vile, and reprehensible.

In the United States of America, we must reject political violence in EVERY form.

This!

No note. Brilliant!

After Pressure from Pressley, Oversight Committee to Convene Closed-Door Roundtable with Survivors of Epstein’s Abuse (1/2) “If we are to hold powerful abusers to account, we must center the voices they tried to silence. This upcoming roundtable is a step toward the healing, accountability, and transparency survivors deserve. To the survivors who are stepping forward to share their stories and to those who continue to hold their stories close: thank you for your strength. I see you, your experiences are real, and I am so sorry for what you went through.”

After Pressure from Pressley, Oversight Committee to Convene Closed-Door Roundtable with Survivors of Epstein’s Abuse (2/2) “I strongly encourage all of my Oversight colleagues to join this roundtable and provide the survivors the space to share their stories and be heard with the respect and dignity they deserve. But justice delayed is justice denied. I continue to demand a full and public Congressional hearing to ensure their testimony is documented in the Congressional Record and shared transparently with the public. And as the Oversight Committee continues its investigation, I continue to demand the release of the full, unredacted Epstein files with the names of survivors protected.”

UPDATE: House Oversight is convening a private roundtable with survivors of Epstein’s abuse.

This is a testament to our pressure.

I look forward to hearing from survivors & won't stop pushing for a full, public hearing so their stories are documented in the Congressional Record.

Just for the quick reminder

Kristi Noem must resign now.

Did their copywriter get DOGE’d?

I give 2 shits about Bezos wedding. Strike that, I give 0 shits. If Jeff wants to start paying fair wages THEN I’d be happy to his name in the news.

Good! Jesse Watters says whatever makes him giggle later and seems to never get checked. That isn’t journalism, it’s a sad attempt at bad comedy.
