Trump just ordered the military into Portland, and he’s giving them the green light to use lethal force on American citizens. Authoritarianism is an abstract concept but Trump is making its impacts real and tangible. Let’s be real about it: This is the beginning of dictatorship in America.

The air traffic controllers on duty when a helicopter crashed into a commercial jet in Washington, killing 67 people, were never tested to determine if any of them had alcohol in their system at the time of the accident, in a break with FAA rules, witnesses said during public hearings.

After D.C. Plane Crash, Air Traffic Controllers Were Not Tested for Alcohol
The F.A.A. has since been training on-call specialists to be snappier about administering alcohol and drug tests after a serious incident, an official said.

Torres: If the bill is so popular, why are the cuts largely delayed until after the midterm election? And if the bill surgically targets fraud, waste and abuse, why is it necessary to set up a $50 billion stabilization fund for rural hospitals?

Dump’s proposed 25% tariffs on pharmaceutical imports will increase U.S. drug costs by nearly $51 billion or by as much as 12.9%. No only will seniors and others taking medications be harmed, cost will increase for the federal government paying Medicare and Medicaid. 🤦‍♀️ www.yahoo.com/news/trump-p...

Not sure who needs to hear this, but any govt official who violates someone's constitutional rights -- and is acting outside the scope of their lawful authority -- can be PERSONALLY liable in a civil suit. ICE officers. Cabinet members. White House staffers. Even the president.

The stock portfolios of more than two dozen members of Congress outperformed the market in 2024. This isn't due to luck or skill. Lawmakers can use privileged information to trade stocks while they’re supposed to be working for you. Make no mistake, it’s legalized corruption.

So it’s going well!
The image is a line graph titled "S&P 500 INDEXED TO INAUGURATION DAY." The x-axis represents "Days from Inauguration Day," ranging from 0 to 200, and the y-axis represents the "Index," ranging from 90 to 120. The graph compares the performance of the S&P 500 index during the first 200 days of three U.S. presidential terms: Obama in 2013 (black line), Biden in 2021 (blue line), and Trump in 2025 (red line). The Obama and Biden lines show a general upward trend, reaching around 115 on the index by day 200, with Obama's line slightly higher. The Trump line starts at 100 but drops sharply to around 90 within the first 50 days and continues to decline. Small circular images of Obama, Biden, and Trump are placed near their respective lines on the graph. The legend at the bottom identifies the lines as "Obama - 2013" (black), "Biden - 2021" (blue), and "Trump - 2025" (red).
