Let’s break this down—because the gaslighting is wild: 📌Oct 2022 – Biden signs EO to cut drug prices 📌Jan 2025 – Trump takes office and kills Biden’s EO to cut drug prices 📌May 2025 – Trump signs his own EO to lower drug prices Trump canceled Biden’s plan then brought it back w/his name on it.

the american electoral system is basically 500,000 information-resistant people across a handful of states taking a guess and then going "haha! oops!" every two years. this process takes 18 months and costs four trillion dollars every time

I’m about to board my flight to El Salvador, where I hope to meet with senior government officials to discuss the return of Kilmar Abrego Garcia. I also hope to see Kilmar and check on his condition — and remind him that we won’t stop fighting until he’s home.

I blame the people that are still in denial. Who say they don't read the news because it's too depressing. The people that feel privileged enough to remain blissfully unaware, but don't take the responsibility that comes with the privilege. If you are privileged, you have a civic duty to stand up.

I suppose it’s time to talk about this… and game out the potential consequences… if trump were to actually try to take Greenland by force. First and foremost, Greenland is a territory of Denmark, a NATO ally. So, this would mean a declaration of war against Denmark, and by proxy, against NATO. +

This is a better success metric than most others imo. A successful country is one where her citizens are spending more of their time in a state of well being. Such metrics should be focused on and celebrated, not sidelined. Goes without saying, that's beyond the grasp of this administration.

I understand that this was the only situation where Dems had any leverage. But, my underlying question is - if the government shuts down, isn't that what the Trump administration wants? What prevents them from just keeping it shut? It would make things so much easier for DOGE. No?

However I'm realizing that their actions are all Trump actions. They are all just doing what he commands. So In some cases, I might in the future merge these sections into the mainline so that it can be grouped by stories (like Ukraine) rather than be split under Rubio,Trump and Hegseth.
