ICYMI: NPR re-aired and re-published a segment featuring Rachael Sirianni, PhD, professor and vice chair of neurological surgery, about how NIH funding cuts have impacted her lab's pediatric cancer research.

Old news, but eye-opening — So, mild-mannered, soft-spoken Treasury Sec, Scott Bessent, is not so mild-mannered outside the public eye. Last year, he was at a ‘Rich Guys Club’ at a rich person’s bday party threatening to whoop someone’s azz: Bill Pulte. 🫢👇🏼 www.politico.com/news/magazin...

ICYMI I’m running out of words for these people. 😶😡

You’ve probably heard that Trump’s Board of Peace fund is empty. But, did you know that their JP Morgan account is not? And, that there’s no transparency? Yeah…that.

Senator Susan Collins (R-Maine) So…. Ok, she’s explaining what causes her voice tremors. Good on her for doing that. She’s been in Congr for 30 yrs &, at age 73, is running for another 6-yr term. Why? It’s *public service*. Not a ‘forever’ job.😡 www.newscentermaine.com/article/news...

Wow…. Bondi gets fired last month, but today she is all over the news. Not only has Trump appointed her to sit on the WH ’AI Advisory Panel’, but we find out today tht right after her firing, she was diagnosed w/thyroid cancer. I just gonna leave it there. 🤐 www.usnews.com/news/politic...

Cruelty is the point! But, y’all already know that, right? And, I have no doubt that Stephen Miller’s grubby paws are all over this. 😡 This is another way to get thousands out of the country. What a 💩 he is. 🎁👇🏼 www.nytimes.com/2026/05/22/u...

Greetings You may already knw tht Tulsi Gabbard resigned, but check out wht she’s been doing (for DJT) while she was DNI: - attempted to rewrite the 2016 Russia election interference - attended the Fulton Cty raid - seized voting machines frm Puerto Rico 👇🏼 www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

Woo!! THAT was fun to watch! GO, Stephen! GO, Stephen! GO, Stephen!! 🕺 🙌🏼

Trump indicts Raúl Castro, 94, former Cuban president. So, I don’t know abt you, but this is fishy. The crime occurred in 1996, 5+ admins ago, incl 2 Reps (Bush & Trump). 1- why didn’t prev admins indict him 2-why didn’t Trump1 Bcz he wants Cuba… *now*.🤬 🎁👇🏼 www.nytimes.com/live/2026/05...

SOME GOOD NEWS, FOR A CHANGE…👇 ENJOY. 😎✨

Wow! I’ve posted her website in my next comment.

I’m just gonna put this here. I’ve run out of words to explain how disgusted I am with these people. I want them all to be gone. 🎁👇🏼 www.nytimes.com/2026/05/19/u...

And, WAIT!! The East Wing and the Reflecting Pool aren’t the only debacles currently going on. He’s got a contractor (non-competitive contract) at Lafayette Park and other locations doing ‘fountain repair’. He bypassed the usual process by calling it urgent. 😡 🎁👇🏼 www.nytimes.com/2026/04/25/u...

Ok. This is just crazy. I was today years old when I found out that 5 minutes from the White House is a perfectly, wonderful venue that can host 1000 guests standing or 600-700 seated — The Andrew Mellon Auditorium And, it’s owned by the U.S. government. www.eventsatmellon.com

This is so Colbert & Letterman 🤭 Watch their fond farewell & 🖕🏼u CBS activity. 😅😅😅🛋️🪑🍉🎂😅😅😅 youtu.be/eBKWKu2Rqxc?...

Greetings! If you are not familiar w/ Marc Elias (Democracy Docket newsletter), PLZ look him up. Since 2020, he’s been laser-focused on litigating 🗳️ rights cases. He’s our guy—follow him if you aren’t doing so already. Below is a case tht hasn’t hit MSM. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

WHOA! Have you heard about the hacked walk signal in Denver? Mind 🤯 🤭

Sharing — More deets on the Trump Mobile T1 gold phone grift. I would say, “unbelievable”, but it *is* believable. It’s a Trump family project. 🫪📵

Well, wowie, wow, wow, wow. Last year, 600,000 Trump supporters handed over a $100 deposit for a Trump Mobile T1 phone that probably won’t materialize. Surprised? Nah…I’m not. But, the fact that MAGA peeps keep falling for Trump family BS is mind-boggling. www.thedailybeast.com/maga-fans-re...

Wow…. I’m speechless. Sec of the Dept of Transportation has been hella busy over the last 7 months — filming a reality show with his family. I know, I know…this was not on my Bingo card either. 🤦🏼‍♀️🤦🏾🤦🏽‍♀️🤷🏻 I mean, shouldn’t he be working on infrastructure projects, work on roads, airports, etc?!? 😠

Thinking about buying a Cybertruck w/the 18” wheelbase? Yeah, don’t do that. Tesla has recalled *all* of this version (they also have a 20”-wheelbase version) bcz THE WHEELS MIGHT FALL OFF. — I kid you not — Which also means be careful driving behind them. 🤯😱😵‍💫 www.motortrend.com/news/tesla-c...

Stumbled upon this article today. Lists how Trump is connected with the ppl he picked for top roles in his administration. Very interesting… www.pbs.org/newshour/pol...

ICYMI *Newsom/Fox News lawsuit moves forward* From Fox News — “We respectfully disagree w/the court’s decision & plan to vigorously defend against this frivolous lawsuit as it’s nothing more thn a blatant attempt to silence free speech & weaken the First Amendment” But Kimmel can’t tell a joke🤨

This is GREAT! In Texas, a LOT of far-right school board members are losing their elections. The ppl are giving them the 🥾! These were the peeps who were responsible for banning books , restricting LGBTQ+ rights, etc. So, yeah, kick ‘em out!!

ICYMI — Just in case you *did* miss this, here is yet another thing that Trump is adding his name, pic, signature, etc. If you apply for a new passport in DC, this is wht you’ll be issued.🙄 To get the standard issue, you’ll have to apply online or outside of DC. 1 /2 www.sfgate.com/news/article...

Sen. Jack Reed to Warsh as he dodges questions about divesting his assets: "Excuse me. I must commend you on the way you can circularly go around questions and not answer them. It's a skill. Unfortunately it's not a good skill for the chairman of the Fed."

When the Oval Office becomes a stock tip line, it’s corruption in plain sight. We must continue to sound the alarm. Head to the Substack page for everything you need to know: www.adamkinzinger.com/p/this-isnt-...

Fifteen minutes before the President announced he was pausing strikes on Iran, somebody moved $500 million in oil futures. Somebody knew. Somebody told them. Or somebody is them. New piece ↓ open.substack.com/pub/adamkinz...

Kevin Warsh just lost me. He argues he's going to be an independent Fed Chair, but refuses to acknowledge that Trump lost the 2020 election. If you can't state simple facts when you're in the political spotlight, you aren't independent. You're a coward.

Let’s take a trip thru the Way-Back machine, shall we? NYT exposes just how smarmy Chief Justice Roberts is, & how he is responsible for the ‘shadow docket’. In fact, there was no such thing until 2016, when Roberts objected to Pres Obama’s Clean Power Plan.🤬 🎁👇🏼👇🏼 www.nytimes.com/2026/04/18/u...

If you want to know about one of the ways that Trump is syphoning money from us & giving it to his fossil fuel donors, watch Senator Whitehouse explain below. An eye-opener for sure. So, in exchange for bankrolling his campaign and his various ideas, he’s working on repaying them…with our 💵💵💵🤬

BREAKING: “I made a mistake, and I am sincerely sorry,” Philz Coffee CEO said after having ordered Pride flags removed. I say again, the power is with the people! www.advocate.com/news/philz-c...

He’s such a bstrd! And, you really don’t have to ask who I’m referring to. You already know. 💸💸🤑💸💸 👆🏼👆🏼 That’s our (taxpayer’s) money that he’s playing with. Playing? Yeah, bcz he’s negotiating with himself since he oversees the agency. He’s disgusting. www.citizensforethics.org/news/analysi...

Wanna read abt yet another ridiculous Trump idea? It’s abt the damn arch tht he wants to build at the entrance of the Arlington Cemetery. Of course, the commission tht has to review & vote on it, approved it.🤨 Yeah…the commission is made up of his appointees 😠 🎁 👇🏼 www.nytimes.com/2026/04/17/b...

For SO many reasons, I’ll be glad when we’re on the other side of this nightmare. In addition to more details re the 4 men noted in the article headline, near the end it’s mentioned that Trump&Co have pd millions to countries to take deportees. MILLIONS of taxpayer $$$😡 abcnews.com/Internationa...

Sharing… Lucas Bean is on 🦋, but I found this 🎞️ in my FB feed. Posting this for folks who are/were unaware. And, to introduce you to Lucas as I see that he has a LOT of vids (UTube, FB, etc) w/ info you might be interested in. Plz read his bio on his UTube channel. youtu.be/tGvuJd9utII?...

An overview of some of the damage Hegseth is doing by firing very knowledgeable & well-respected leaders in the military. Plus, he’s doing this dumb 💩 **during** an unnecessary, ego-driven war. And, let’s not forget that he booted a chaplain. My head is 😵‍💫. 🎁 👇🏼 www.nytimes.com/2026/04/02/u...

Oh, SNAP😲 Pamela Jo’s troubles are far from over. Now, I understand (if true) why she was begging (?) Trump not to fire her. Apparently, a boatload of lawyers, judges, et al, have been waiting in the wings in FL for the right time to follow thru on major complaints. 1 /3 youtu.be/ToFOSfI5Bdg?...

Remember when Pamela Jo was really pissed that Pres Biden’s portrait had not been removed from at the DOJ office that she fired www.ms.now/news/pam-bon...

Well, this completely sucks, but the article does say he overstayed his student visa (and admitted that to the immigration judge). However, guess who also overstayed his student visa but is still here? Elon Musk & his brother, Kimball. Kimball said so in public. www.syracuse.com/news/2026/04...

What Rich said! 👇🏼 Pam Bondi was fired because she wasn’t corrupt enough. BOOM [Consider following/subscribing to ‘Ohh, That’s Rich’ on FB, YouTube, 🦋, IG… he’s everywhere. And, he’s *VERY* good] 👇🏼👇🏼 youtube.com/shorts/MJXW0...

Wait, WHAT?! Pam Bondi is OUT?! 🫨😲 I’m seriously getting whiplash over here. And, that bish thought she had an f’ing force field around her…. with her smug azz. Sorry… I’ve got so much to say abt her. Ugh! Bottom line, though, is she is ripe for lawsuits now. WOW! www.sfgate.com/news/article...

A short ‘Once upon a time’ story beginning with Friedrich Trump (Drumpf/Trumpf) of Bavaria (Germany). The wormy apple (Donald Trump) didn’t fall far from the tree. youtube.com/shorts/9DRze...

Michael Popock of LegalAF (MeidasTouch Network) interviewed 4 Democratic State AGs just before the State of the Union address a few weeks ago. I enjoyed listening to them speak about their efforts (& successes) of protecting our voting rights. And, standing up to Trump. ⚖️ youtu.be/1Y7NxNj9cZQ?...

Stephen Miller allegedly urged Department of Homeland Security agents to “force confrontations” with protesters in Minneapolis in order to win a “PR battle." trib.al/NcbpdiX

Marc Elias has created a 38-minute video covering the entire timeline of the *supposed* release of the Epstein files. He starts w/a mini bio of Epstein, talks abt the many lies & showboating by Pam Bondi, then where we are today. He says have a 🪑, grab 🥃, & pay attention youtu.be/mYPLyCMPgdY?...

This article offers a peek into wht the future may (🤞🏼) hold for Trump, Cab members, or anyone in his admin who thought (or thinks) they are untouchable. It’s long but a really great read. Both Rep Raskin & Marc Elias gave a lot of input. Definitely worth your time. newrepublic.com/article/2073...

What could lie ahead — Plz read/share article below. This article is a good one for everyone yelling that the Congr Dems aren’t doing anything, or posting loud (all caps) “DO SOMETHING!” everywhere. 🙄 Not being the maj party limits wht can be done but it doesn’t mean they’re doing nothing. 👇🏼👇🏼

🤬 By the time Trump leaves (by whatever means) the White House — the *People’s House* — will be unrecognizable. And, that means inside & out. During late night work, a statue of Christopher Columbus was erected. An arch is also coming. 😢😢 🎁 article 👇🏼 www.nytimes.com/2026/03/26/u...
