Congrats on “opening” a strait that was open six weeks ago, and all it cost was at least 13 dead service members, thousands of dead Iranian civilians, tens of billions in taxpayer dollars, our loss in global standing, and the Iranian regime’s increase in power. Phenomenal work.

Iran is rejecting Trump’s claim that Tehran agreed to hand over its enriched uranium stockpile. A source close to Iran’s Parliament Speaker said “no form of nuclear material transfer to America has been negotiated,” directly contradicting Trump. 1/

LEFT: What Donald is making our troops in Iran eat. RIGHT: What Donald is giving folks at Mar-a-Lago to eat. Honestly, I thought I was going to make this point a lot better than I can. The food at Mar-a-Lago may be richer and more plentiful, but it still looks like poorly-plated slop.

April 2025, HHS fired the entire FOIA teams at the CDC, FDA, and NIH. The CDC’s office was eliminated. Then a watchdog group filed FOIA requests with DOGE, & DOGE denied them. A federal judge had to order compliance. Meanwhile, 12% of FOIA requests were fully granted last year. Lowest on record.

Pritzker: "When did we become a country where it's ok for the US president to insist on national television that a state should call him to beg for anything? Especially something we don't want. Have we truly lost all sense of sanity in this nation that we treat this as normal?"

Today marks 3 years since this corrupt SCOTUS passed Dobbs & overturned Roe v Wade. In my own country, guns & fetuses have more rights than I do as a woman. Women must have bodily autonomy. No man should decide what rights I have over my own body; that is between me & my doctor.

As if kicking Americans off their health insurance wasn’t bad enough, Trump’s budget could put more than 300 rural hospitals in the US at risk of closure. We already have a health care crisis in Rural America. Trump would make it even worse to give billionaires a tax break.

After yesterday's events in the White House, Haltbakk Bunkers, one of Norway's largest marine fuel companies, appears to have announced that it will no longer refuel American Navy vessels. Haltbakk has called on other European companies to refuse service to American forces.
