This administration continues to insult the intelligence of the people it is supposed to serve Outright lies and rehashing of long disproven “hypotheses.” There is no middle ground here. No compromise approach The human toll from this utter nonsense is already clear to see. Criminal negligence

This isn’t about fraud - it’s about cutting your healthcare so that Trump can afford the tax cuts he gave to billionaires. They’re cutting more money in healthcare than they’ve prosecuted for fraud. The math doesn’t add up. www.cbsnews.com/news/medicai...

When it happens, please remember that those of us who published lengthy books about January 6 explicitly said that month—and every month after—that the Insurrection never ended and Trump would eventually move to end our democracy permanently. We've been saying it for five years.

A worker making $50,000 a year contributes to Social Security on 100% of their income. A CEO making $20 million a year contributes to Social Security on less than 1% of their income. Instead of raising the retirement age, we should scrap the Social Security tax cap.

This is going to surprise, well, no one who has been paying attention, but Trump's birthright citizenship legal arguments are based on the theories of a former Confederate officer, white supremacist, who went on to argue the segregationists case in Plessy v. Fergueson. www.vox.com/politics/483...

The ugly history behind Trump’s birthright citizenship case in the Supreme Court

The peculiar legal argument behind Trump’s attack on citizenship was invented by 19th-century anti-Chinese racists.

Iranian school was on U.S. target list, may have been mistaken as military site

The strike on an Iranian elementary school killed at least 175, many of them children, raising questions as to whether the military’s use of AI-enabled targeting was a factor.

The costs of this Iran war debacle will likely be more than the cost of extending the ACA health insurance subsidies. If you asked Americans, which do you want: another war in the Middle East or lower health care costs at home, is the margin 90 to 10? 95 to 5?

Mass horror at the killings of Renee Good & Alex Pretti has DHS’s budget at stake. And yet in the past week, agents left a blind refugee to die alone. And lied about it. They pretended to be police looking for a missing child, to detain a college kid. And lied about it. What does this tell you?
