A Florida-based company is charging military veterans as much as $20,000 for help with disability claims, even though the VA has said that may be illegal and the service should be free. But so far nobody's stopping the company and others like it.

All the Twitter accounts from Russia and Nigeria seem to have migrated to #Threads. Don't be surprised when #Bluesky is next.

Wells Fargo scammed millions of people by opening fake accounts. The Trump Administration just reduced a former Wells Fargo exec's $10 million fine to $0. Trump is making life more affordable for Wall Street executives — and more expensive for everyone else.

Anyone on Threads notice that the Q-MAGA seems to have taken over? Or at least their Russian 'bot actors have.

The language may mislead voters into believing noncitizens are voting en masse. This is a redundant and unnecessary alarmist proposition. Please vote no on Prop 16! #Texas www.texastribune.org/2025/10/24/t...

Despite not having approval from the DC Historic Committee; despite the shutdown that cancelled so many paychecks (but not Congress); the ballroom continues.

CNN put together a clip of RKF Jr denying today he linked antidepressants and mass shootings, followed by a clip of RFK Jr last week linking antidepressants and mass shootings

Anyone who listened to RFK Jr. yesterday knows that he was at "the top of his class" at school in the same way that other idiot, Donald Trump, was. He was *definitely* not. Also, what would Nancy Reagan make of his "Just Say Yes To Drugs" campaign? But all that liquor helps explain his policies.

suffice it to say it's not normal for the AG and FBI director to meet with administration officials about an ongoing coverup

What twisted priorities the US has when we can have a $45,000,000 birthday parade and a $200,000,000 golden ballroom without blinking but someone who represented the United States in the Olympics has to sell his singlet to help pay for medical bills that would be covered in other advanced nations.
