America today is a country where regulators won't allow private companies to air interviews of the opposition on TV, but declare that taxpayer funded propaganda is fine.

Wild that he gets this coverage after he packed the Utah Supreme Court in order to try to prevent it from enforcing a referendum-passed gerrymandering ban to steal a congressional seat for the GOP (and disenfranchise his state's largest city)

Democrats blast Trump for frequently falling asleep during official events, but we saw the exact same thing from Joe Biden. And by "the exact same thing," I mean he never actually fell asleep in public but it totally felt like he might. by Jake Tapper

This 33-year-old nurse told the FBI she knew she was “going to set him free” after border patrol agents brought in a man whose face was bloodied and seriously injured. She treated him and helped him escape, and she faces charges now. He got away, and they never relocated him.

A great deal happened today. But nothing more important than this. SCOTUS allows Trump Administration to continue sending detained migrants to third countries with which the migrants have no prior connection. Just appalling.

Puerto Rico is in a water crisis, as a US board slashes the island's social/infrastructure spend to protect corporate bondholders, and a developer tries to build a $2.5B private city on acres of untouched coastline. As one councilmember explains, much of this exploitation can be traced back to NYC.

I know this is shocking, but it never seems to work out for them when Republicans bring right-wing internet conspiracies into courtrooms or committee hearings where the opposition actually gets to see their “evidence” and respond to it. They fare much better with the cultists on X.

No. Federal appropriations law has long barred using taxpayer funds for political advertising.

45 have untreated mental illnesses.
35 have an

134 live paycheck to paycheck.
23 have experienced homelessness.
59 are victims of domestic violence.
20 have experienced discrimination for their age, race, gender, or religion.
1 is transexual.
Some people would have you believe that this 1 person is the greatest threat and the biggest concern for everyone else in the crowd. How does that make sense?
