Qatar is about to cut helium exports which is used for chip production. China has been studying US tactical & operational responses to Iran and considering invading Taiwan. Taiwan makes 90% of the world’s high end chips. You want to talk about potential devastation, that’d be it

Trump's health policy: -Slash grants for Alzheimer's research by 50% -Increase production of cancer-linked weedkiller chemical -Gut protections against forever chemicals -Throw 7.5M Americans off Medicaid How does ANY of this Make America Healthy Again?

A tsunami of corruption is sweeping through Washington. The Trump administration makes decisions based on how much they can enrich the wealthy and well-connected. We must act before our global standing craters, our economy falters, and Americans pay for this for generations to come.

U.S. President Donald Trump plans to take control of the Strait of Hormuz by force, in a move that could also last several weeks, an Israeli source tells KANN.

What an insane timeline we live in.

Q: You don’t regret that people might’ve lost important income to support their lives? A: No, I think it was more important to reduce the federal deficit. Q: Ok. Did you reduce the federal deficit? A: No, we didn’t.

I'm going with the Pope on this.

President Trump is presented daily with options on how he could end the war with Iran, six people familiar with the plans tell NBC News. He hasn't taken any so far.

Page One: “.. India’s foreign minister told the FT that negotiations .. were an example of what diplomacy could bring.” @financialtimes.com

Senate Democrats introduced a bill a few days ago that would've paid TSA & the Coast Guard while funding for the rest of DHS continued to be negotiated. Senate Republicans voted it down. The rest of the gibberish demented Grandpa Trump spewed in his post is pure fiction.

Trump has made being a congressional Republican the inside trade promised land. They'll never give him up.

Remember: There is nothing natural or inevitable about extreme inequality; it’s the result of an economic system that values wealth and power over human dignity and justice. It doesn't have to be this way.

Trump and his aides lowered the authorization level for lethal force, broadened target categories, inflated threat assessments and fired IGs according to more than a dozen current and former national security personnel. Nearly all spoke on condition of anonymity for fear of retaliation. 2/2
