Headline: "Good news! Pete Hegseth wanted Scouting America to ban trans kids. The organization said no way!" Actual story: "We do not put boys and girls together in intimate spaces and in order to do that we need to have some knowledge of who they are," Krone said.

Young people are dying overseas while the man who sent them there is working on his golf swing. For some leaders, war is tragedy. For Trump, it’s just background noise between tee times.

While the McDonald’s CEO gets roasted for his awkward burger taste test... McDonald’s is among the top employers of workers who rely on food stamps. And McDonald's CEO recently raked in $18.2M — over 1,000x the company's median employee pay. That should leave a bad taste in your mouth.

Under questioning by Rand Paul, ICE officials confirm that yelling at officers is not assault and recording officers is not a crime. Dear ICE - There is no statute of limitations for murder. Law enforcement, including ICE, does not have absolute immunity. Presidencies end. Accountability does not.

Idaho Republicans’ New Extreme Bathroom Bill Carries 5-Year Prison Sentence, Applies to All Private Businesses
The bill, which has already garnered support among legislators, imposes a statewide bathroom ban with penalties as severe as the state’s abortion law. It's the harshest anti-trans bill ever proposed.

If you grew up in an abusive home, you understand all Americans live in a home just like that right now. You want to just become invisible and endure it. Try to avoid the eye and the attention so you can go to bed hurting a little less. But in my experience, walking on eggshells has never solved it.
