Politico: "Republicans tried to punt health care cuts until after the midterms. It didn’t work. While most GOP-enacted cuts to Medicaid and other safety net programs won’t happen until 2027, Democrats are speaking to the voters already feeling the squeeze"

But no worries! Ripping out 100s of trees, ignoring judges, destroying trails, picnic, and memorial areas, all so he can indulge in yet another vanity project will surely help his abysmal numbers.

Right-wing billionaires now own the Washington Post, the LA Times, CNN, CBS News, virtually every local TV station, virtually every news radio station, most local newspapers, X, Facebook, Threads, and TikTok. (Did I miss any?) They own almost the entire information environment.

Former Michigan Sen. Debbie Stabenow says Trump attacked Iran under Netanyahu’s influence, ignoring warnings about the Strait of Hormuz. Meanwhile, Americans are putting food and gas on credit cards. She recalled seeing someone buy just $2 worth of gas to pick up their child from daycare.

Yeah, the problem with the tweet *wasn’t* that it violated “CBS News standards.”
Tweet from Jan Crawford Greenberg:

“Earlier, I tweeted a video from an Abdul El-Sayed town hall. I deleted that tweet because it was a violation of CBS News standards. I apologize.”

For people whining abt Dems and investigations, this is interesting. Dems in both the House and the Senate HAVE been demanding records from lawsuits that did not get sued by Trump, including top GOP lawfirm K&E. This could set up an interesting confrontation next year.

And Trump figures, because he's a star/president and can do anything he wants to anyone or anything he wants, that the courts won't be able to keep up with him.
