Trump misappropriating congressionally allocated Medicare funds for what amounts to influence of voters with $90 checks. This letter arrived in the mail today. There’s no header on the stationary. @democrats.senate.gov @warren.senate.gov

Prices for McD’s this year. Current Fed minimum wage is $7.25/hr regular, $2.13hr tipped. Everything on this menu exceeds the Federal tipped minimum wage, so, more than an hour’s wage to afford.
Photo showing McDonald’s prices as of June 2026, with all menu prices exceeding the Federal tipped minimum hourly wage of $2.13, and the Big Mac as the most expensive menu item at $8.39.

I got my son this t-shirt in Spain last year. Sadly, I had to explain why it was so funny, and who The Ramones were (my son is not the model in the photo!).

Per the “order” itself, it can’t stand alone as point A in it gives the order’s existence life because of the settlement agreement.

@muellershewrote.com Please opine on my (uneducated) take that the “non-addendum” per Blanche is inextricably part of the settlement, per point A in the “order:”

Galloping Goat @gallopinggoat.bsky.social · 02/06/2026
Here’s the text of what Blanche described, poorly and with omissions. Its existence is predicated on the settlement agreement, as outlined in point A. It cannot stand alone. Summary “This…agreement directed the AG to issue an order establishing funding and any other… requirements for the fund.”
Paraphrasing, and summarizing: “A. This settlement agreement in Trump vs. IRS … has created the “Anti-Weaponization Fund.”  The settlement agreement directed the Attorney General to issue the funding and any other relevant requirements for the fund.”

IANAL but the “non addendum” has three points, the first two of which specifically refer to the settlement agreement. I don’t think it lives on its own. Screenshot from the justice department:
The “addendum,” as referenced in the video clip, specifically grounds itself in the settlement creating the $1.776B slush fund.

This AUS tax document was submitted to a sub Reddit to show how the tax payer’s taxes were distributed. All costs for the year of that service. Healthcare $420, higher ed $183, public welfare $846, defense $203. I wish the US had such transparency.
This document shows budget line items as listed above, showing the distribution of the taxpayer’s yearly assessment of $2,190 to various governmental needs such as education, health, defense, housing, public safety, etc.

Anonymous is saying that photo is an image from google:
Image shows the photograph used by ICE/DHS appeared on Reddit for another matter at least 5 days ago.

His goons from Triple Canopy are the muscle DOGE used to refuse access to the EPA headquarters. His ambitions are all over the administration.

Grateful the 52 wk high for the Dow still has 6 months to go.

I love that for the next six months, the DJIA 52 week high will read 45,073. No escaping who owns this debacle.

Elon spent $25M trying to buy an election, approximately ~8 hours of his income. We need to tax the rich like the 1970’s, when this country invested in our infrastructure and institutions - the same institutions being torn apart today.

The recently empowered US Marshals preventing congress persons from entering a DOGE occupied agency were also wearing “triple canopy” badges and hats (as has Musk) - that’s part of Eric Prince’s operation. They’re already compromised.
Picture shows Senator Ed Markey being denied entrance to the EPA headquarters by a guard wearing “triple canopy” arm badge and hat.

As an example, I live in a town of 9k spread over ~40 square miles. These are my OTA choices. With more juice and some commercial will, I should be able to get ABC, NBC, etc.

Proud of my Xmas Eve dinner - conchinita pibil, soft masarepa (think creamy polenta), black beans, poblano and cheese with sides: pico, pickled onions, queso fresco and blood orange segments. Kiddo made tiramisu for desert!

My sweet boy made tiramisu tonight (for the first time)! He took a bite just to check, and yes, is pleased. ❤️
This picture shows a slightly sloppy edged tiramisu with the corner missing as he tried a little bit before it sets overnight.
