Trump celebrated what he claims is America’s "Golden Age" at an all-day event attended by America’s oligarchs, including Elon Musk, Jensen Huang, Mark Zuckerberg, Sundar Pichai, Satya Nadella, Tom Brown, Dave Limp, and Shyam Sankar. Together, they control $ 1.5 trillion. So much for the golden age.

The truth of this is only shocking to those that have tried to deny the truth of electing a confirmed felon, entitled, spoiled brat, and career criminal who has been a scofflaw all his life. America is getting what it deserves.

Wait, a man who drove his wife to suicide by proving how popular he is with the ladies stole money from black kids for their health to fund an entourage to prove how important he is? It's *almost* as if RFK, Jr. is a truly horrible, insecure person!

Black text on a white page that reads:

New York City has spent one-third of this year under a Flash Flood Emergency activation.

Today, we are preparing for a nor’easter that could bring heavy rain and coastal flooding.

I brought together commissioners and senior leaders from more than a dozen City agencies and departments at City Hall to coordinate a whole-of-government response to protect our neighborhoods.

If a politician takes money from weapons manufacturers, don't be surprised when they back weapons contracts. If a politician takes money from Big Pharma, don't be surprised when they try to stop guaranteed healthcare. That's why I don't take ANY corporate money. None.

Kennedy ordered CDC to delete the 2 measle death records in Pennsylvania. Maybe it's a bad idea to have a one-time heroin addict known for eating roadkill and sniffing cocaine off a toilet seat responsible for anything to do with health and food safety. Trump brought the swamp with his sick cabinet.

When I was an advisor to the Forest Service, we were presented with a study showing that the climate crisis would double the number of acres burned. I urged them to repurpose Smokey. They just laughed it off. This is not quite what I meant, but it works. Forest fires now burn 2x historical acreages.
