Opinion | Six surgeons general: Itโ€™s our duty to warn the nation about RFK Jr. We took an oath to declare dangers when we found them. Weโ€™re doing that again today.

An urgent warning from the last six surgeons general about RFK Jrโ€™s threats to America.

Itโ€™s long past time for this hack to resign.

Marรญa Corina Machado, Venezuelan opposition leader, wins Nobel Peace Prize The prize honored Machado, who is in hiding, for keeping โ€œthe flame of democracy burningโ€ but the White House accused the Nobel jury of โ€œplacing politics over peace.โ€

Marรญa Corina Machado, Venezuelan opposition leader โ€” & champion for democracyโ€” wins Nobel Peace Prize.

Trump, who is replacing democracy with fascist authoritarianism, still doesnโ€™t get why he didnโ€™t win it.

Worse, heโ€™s moping like the sore loser!

Apart from helping Comey's selective prosecution defense, this also means the president of the United States uses direct messages on Truth Social to communicate with cabinet officials.

I didn't know that, but we can be sure intelligence agencies all over the planet already did.

Excuse me Mr President. Did you even pass 8th grade math?

No wonder his companies went bankrupt 6 times.

Why has the media become so vulnerable to Trump, and what can we do about it? Even after Disney's reversal on Jimmy Kimmel, the vulnerability remains โ€” unless we change the rules.

Robert Reich explains why this is a problem.

The Dangers of the Concentration of Media Ownership The Berkeley High Jacket is the award-winning student newspaper of Berkeley High School in California. Since 1912 the Jacket has provided a platform for professional-level student journalism.

In 1983, the U.S. media was dominated by 50 companies.

Today, that number has shrunk to just SIX giant media conglomerates โ€” and in many ways, they act as one...

Little wonder fewer and fewer Americans trust mainstream media.

Trump keeps revealing what an idiot he is. He doesn't know math, so it's not surprising that he still doesn't understand that tariffs are sales taxes paid by Americans.

OMG. He REALLY said this today. The PRESIDENT of the USA has never heard of habeas corpus. Even 7th graders know that itโ€™s a basic tenet of our constitution; that one cannot be detained without due process. Heaven help us!

Trump will probably sue the Nobel Prize committee or threaten Norway with tariffs if he doesnโ€™t win a Nobel Peace Prize!

US demands EU dismantle green regulations in threat to trade deal Washington wants American companies to be exempted from rules such as having to draw up climate transition plans

Dear EU,

Please don't cave in to these monsters.

"Unlike traditional trade negotiations, the US is not offering concessions in return. โ€œItโ€™s a one-way street,โ€ said one EU official."

A quarter of FBI agents are assigned to immigration enforcement, per FBI data Nearly a quarter of FBI agents are currently assigned to immigration enforcement, with the number climbing above 40 percent in the bureauโ€™s largest field offices.

The total amount of FBI resources devoted to immigration is likely higherโ€”The FBI data Warner obtained reflects the number of agents working on immigration at least 50% of their time. It does not account for scores of agents detailed for lesser portion of their time.

And is anyone surprised? Incompetents running this regime may be the only reason we can come back from this disaster.
