Because the U.S. brought Agent Orange to Vietnam, the cleanup program is more akin to restitution than charity. The project is why the U.S. has “an extraordinary relationship” with “a country that should by all rights hate us,” one official said.

Omg. This is horrifying. Congresswoman Kelly Morrison just revealed that Medicaid covers HALF of the kids in the United states, more than 40% of the births — and Republicans want it gone. The Republican funding bill impacts ALL OF US.

Tesla earned $2.3 billion in the United States in 2024. You'd think it paid a lot in taxes, right? Well it paid precisely $0 in federal income taxes last year. You want waste and fraud? Look at what some big corporations and the rich are getting away with.
