Joseph Schwartz’s case is the latest in a string of health care fraud pardons by Trump. The president also granted clemency to nursing home magnate Philip Esformes, convicted of a $1.3B scheme, and Judith Negron, convicted in a $200M fraud case.

Yet another sad reminder that there is a two-tiered justice system in America: One for the rich. Another for everyone else.

This is what happens when you have an incompetent fool with no experience in charge of the Pentagon. Pete likes to put on makeup and appear on camera, boasting about war and its warriors, while essential tasks, like making sure those warriors are fed, are not seen as flashy enough to bother with.

It just never ends. The Trump administration has officially scheduled an auction for drilling rights in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge. Companies can bid for the right to drill in ANWR starting June 5.

The Senate vote to destroy America’s most visited wilderness could happen with 24 hours’ notice and the deadline runs out at the end of April.

Cardinal Cupich: "We're dehumanizing the victims of war by turning the suffering of people & killing of children & our own soldiers into entertainment. To splice together movie cuts w/ actual bombings & targeting of people for purposes of entertainment is sickening. This is not who we are."

We need your help. The Trump administration is dismantling the U.S. Forest Service. 193 million acres of public land (bigger than Texas) is being handed over to political operatives and industry insiders.

This is my favorite climate change chart. Japanese monks, aristocrats, and emperors kept meticulous records of cherry blossom festivals for 1,200 years and accidentally built the world's longest climate dataset.

Pretty staggering that the FT Trump interview opens with ‘if NATO doesn’t help us sort this mess, there’ll be problems’ and ends with ‘Russia might be helping target American soldiers, but really that’s sort of fair enough - we started it’. www.ft.com/content/1ca6...

Breast cancer mortality dropped 58% from 1975 to 2019. Localized, early detected breast cancer has a 99% 5 year survival rate. Modern mammogram tech was developed by NASA for telescopes. Last year, RFK Jr. cancelled 87 research grants on breast cancer. www.nytimes.com/2026/03/16/u...

Ted Lieu: “A foreign hacker likely has the Epstein Files — the best way to prevent blackmail of government officials, such as Trump & Howard Lutnick, would be for AG Pam Bondi to stop the cover up & release all the Epstein Files as required by law”

DISTRACTIONS DON’T WORK. COVERUPS WON’T WORK. NOT EVEN WAR. RELEASE THE EPSTEIN FILES.

Chris Murphy: "I Just came from a two hour, closed door classified briefing on the war. It just confirmed to me it's totally incoherent. We are not gonna be able to achieve any of our stated objectives ... this is a disaster of epic proportions, a 10 day debacle"

We shouldn’t need an exclusive report from one outlet’s sources to tell us how many of our troops are wounded. The Pentagon confirmed the number when confronted, but that’s too late: www.reuters.com/world/middle...

BREAKING: Trump FURIOUS at Kristi Noem – privately raging over her Senate testimony that implicated him in $220 million taxpayer-funded cosplay slush fund! What a bunch of idiots and cons that are running this country. The moron administration.

The Trump administration has opened the door for Venezuela to sell some gold into the US in a major boost to a country facing crippling dollar shortages due to restrictions on oil exports.

AOC: “That’s one reason he must be removed from office - if the Epstein files have such a hold on Trump & this admin that they are willing to plunge us & risk world war in order to save themselves politically - that is the definition of someone who cant make objective decisions for the American ppl”

WAPO: “.. Since the war began Saturday, Russia has passed Iran the locations of U.S. military assets, including warships and aircraft, said the three officials, who spoke on the condition of anonymity because of the matter’s sensitivity.” @washingtonpost.com www.washingtonpost.com/national-sec...

ICYMI — “No one wants to fight for Israel!” Marine veteran Brian McGinnis had his hand injured as AIPAC-backed Senator Sheehy (R) & joined Capitol Police officers in physically removing him as he spoke out against Trump and Bibi’s war.

Donald Trump is seeking to collect massive amounts of information — including personal and partisan voter data — at an unprecedented scale. He is trying to pressure AI companies into allowing unrestricted use of their powerful tools against American citizens. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/trum...
