Morning everyone. Do you know that your President just exempted himself, his family, and all his family's companies from our tax laws? You are subject to the law. Now he is not. No one should not pretend this is okay or normal. It's an ongoing constitutional crisis.

When one side says it's raining, and one side says it isn't, your job isn't to quote both sides. Your job is to look outside and see if it's fucking raining.

Federal law enforcement agents shot and killed a man in Minneapolis on Jan. 24 according to local police officials. DHS told Fox News that the man was “armed with a gun”. A video of the shooting appears to show that a gun was taken from the man before the first shot was fired. x.com/BillMelugin_...

ICE launched “Operation Catch of the Day”in Maine. I’m still waiting to see this same energy in places with actual immigration-driven labor markets like Texas, where construction, agriculture, and energy run on immigrant labor. Funny how enforcement never disrupts red states.

You know what's underrated? Letting people be. Letting them mispronounce a word, talk too much about a show they love, or get excited about something you don't understand. You don't have to get it, just be kind. Everyone's got something that lights them up. Let them shine, even if it's not your thing.

You can’t import another country’s vaccine policy without first importing their actual healthcare system. Our vaccine recommendations fill structural gaps in our healthcare system, which is widely regarded as fragmented, inaccessible to many, and riven with inequalities.

I again wish to point out that it is utterly catastrophic that RFK Jr. has unilaterally ended CDC recommendations for many childhood vaccines. It’s a betrayal of science, ethics, compassion, and the people of the United States. And it was also a specific goal of Project 2025 (page 254).
By statute or regulation, CDC guidance must be prohibited from taking on a prescriptive character. For example, never again should CDC officials be allowed to say in their official capacity that school children "should be" masked or vaccinated (through a schedule or otherwise) or prohibited from learning in a school building.
Such decisions should be left to parents and medical providers. We have learned that when CDC says what people "should" do, it readily becomes a "must" backed by severe punishments, including criminal penalties. CDC should report ont'r_7 s and effectiveness of all infectious disease-mitigation measures dispassi, > y and leave the "should" and "must" policy calls to politically accountable parties.

It's an old and obvious pattern. An unpopular president - failing on the economy and losing his grip on power at home - decides to launch a war for regime change abroad. The American people don’t want to “run” a foreign country while our leaders fail to improve life in this one.

A tweet quoting a reporter asking Trump whether Americans are impatient about affordability. Trump replies that affordability is a “hoax” created by Democrats. The image shows Trump sitting in a cabinet room looking tired or annoyed.

People need to be crystal clear about something: The requirement that the government ANSWER to a court on the legal basis for detaining someone is literally the core liberty right (habeas corpus). If the government says they don’t have to do that bc “national security,” YOU can be disappeared.
