Thank God. I hope Congress puts an end to money-grubbing Witkoff and Kushner leading negotiations (does anyone actually believe VP Vance is leading the talks?). Neither should be anywhere near the peace talks. Their true allegiance is to money and more money.

✊✊✊ 🌊🌊🌊 It can be done! And I believe as it's a state charge and not a federal one, that The Ginger Dickhead can't pardon him?

Perfect image for the #TidyBowlReflectingPool. The Republican Party’s morals are in the toilet.

Gosh. I wonder what this is about.

💉 Did you know, if you live in or are traveling to a measles outbreak area, your baby can receive the measles vaccine as early as 6 months❓ Babies under 12 mo are at highest risk for severe disease from measles. Early vaccination provides critical protection during outbreaks.

“‘These cuts were not spread evenly,’ Liu said. ‘Namely, the National Institute on Minority Health and Health Disparities was hit the hardest. About 30% of all of its funding was cut. That’s 10 times more than the average.’” www.nbcnews.com/health/healt...

One year ago, the Trump administration eliminated $1.8 billion for research that helps protect people's health and safety. Now it's spending $1.8b on a new DOJ political slush fund instead. Let us count the ways this money could be better spent...reply to this post and share your ideas.

He's also IN THE FILES. THAT'S why he doesn't want to release them.

Thank you, @katiephang.bsky.social. If it were up to mainstream media, too few struggling Americans would know about Trump’s latest crime.

VRA gutted, Black voters silenced, $1.776 billion in reparations to Trump allies, and now $100 million to resettle 10,000 more WHITE South Africans in the US. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

Friends, a madman is in charge of the country — but almost no Republican member of Congress, no major CEO or university president or head of a major foundation seems willing to sound the alarm. These people are all cowards. Where are America's leaders? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MC0vKzRmPos

An American leader who believes in science.

I don't care what your politics are, this is bullshit.

Seeing coverage of Congress as a young man in Indiana, I remember watching Barney Frank run circles around bad-faith arguments with his formidable intellect and unique political style.

I love this interview. Where is Barbara Walter’s when you need her?

BREAKING: Former Capitol Police Officer Harry Dunn & MPD Officer Hodges are suing to block the $1.8B “weaponization” slush fund.

What an ass.

happy bday Norwegian writer Sigrid Undset, b.1882, she won Nobel Prize in Lit. in 1928. “It’s a good thing when you don’t dare do something if you don’t think it’s right. But it’s not good when you think something’s not right because you don’t dare do it.”

happy bday the iconic Malcolm X, b.1925, Omaha, NE. “I'm for truth, no matter who tells it. I'm for justice, no matter who it is for or against. I'm a human being, first and foremost, and as such I'm for whoever and whatever benefits humanity as a whole.” “Truth is on the side of the oppressed.”

“You’re not to be so blind with patriotism that you ignore reality; wrong is wrong no matter who does it or who says it” 💞 🗽 ☮️ Malcom X

happy bday French writer Honoré de Balzac, b.1799. “The more one judges, the less one loves.” “Laws are spider webs through which the big flies pass and the little ones get caught.” “Who is to decide which is the grimmer sight: withered hearts, or empty skulls?”

Happy birthday Honoré de Balzac.

The president of the United States is a fucking gangster.

Nothing makes you look guiltier than forcing the Justice Department to promise never to investigate your taxes or prosecute you for anything they might find.

And their kids don’t need 30 dolls. 2 or 3 dolls are the limit.

I hadn’t thought about the fact that DOJ should have been *defending the lawsuit*, not helping Trump get a nearly $1.8 billion settlement that’s ostensibly going to his cop-killing criminal allies. I’m not convinced Trump will be able to give that money away; God knows he’d love another billion+.

Best thing I've seen all day.
