Rep. Lieu: The President is not well. Trump has repeatedly fallen asleep at multiple Cabinet meetings, at multiple White House events, and at a raucous basketball game last night. The White House needs to explain why Trump keeps going to the hospital and why they keep giving him cognitive tests.

So apparently white Americans in Minneapolis are putting Mexican flags on their cars so ICE agents waste time pulling them over. They call it ICE fishing. 🤣😂

If the WH is truly serious about lawlessness (ahem), maybe they’re going after the wrong city. Dallas has a higher violent crime rate per capita AND a lower density (usually density correlates w violent crime). I’m sure Gov. Abbot could use the help

I’m old (kinda) & with that I have a long memory (still). I would never advocate withholding disaster relief funds when needed, but it’s fair game to remind that the federal government should be there to help those in real need. Remember Hurricane Sandy? Rep Chip Roy was Sen Cruz’s Chief of Staff

They're called public records for a reason. Starting today, WIRED will *stop paywalling* articles that are primarily based on public records obtained through the Freedom of Information Act, becoming the first publication to partner with @freedom.press to offer this for our new coverage.

As the administration does its best to hide public records from the public, Wired magazine is stepping up to help stem the secrecy

Guidance from my physician, quoting an actual research paper, no less: if you got your MMR in the 60’s it’s highly likely you have little to no immunity. So I’m going straight MMR. For those who react negatively to immunizations or immune compromised, Titer tests are a good precautionary step.

Another instance of DOGE stepping in it. If the airlines and airports and the terminated employees are not hammering this WH Administration, that’s scary. And a search on “probationary” isn’t AI, that’s a “find” with a fuzzy search: business intelligence 101-stuff. Amateurs.
