BREAKING: RFK Jr, the most unfit and unqualified candidate for HHS Secretary, has just been confirmed by the Senate. With a drunken abuser heading the Pentagon, and a convicted felon in the White House, America clearly isn't hiring its best.

Trump is reportedly looking to shrink the FDIC and consolidate it into other govt agencies. The FDIC was created during the Depression to protect bank deposits. This would come after Trump and DOGE shuttered the CFPB, which protects us from financial fraud. See the pattern?

Republicans are entirely at fault. It would've been better had none of them won their elections. But that doesn't excuse Democrats from failing to use the same parliamentary maneuvers Republicans have used for decades to hinder Democratic majorities. If we have to shame them into it, so be it.

This has always been the GOP's strategy: 1) Cut taxes for the wealthy & corporations by claiming they'll pay for themselves. 2) Explode the deficit. 3) Demand cuts to programs that millions of people rely on. 4) Repeat. Don't let them get away with it.

Let me pause here to point out that among the reasons that the Commission chose to rename Fort Bragg was because Braxton Bragg "is considered one of the worst generals of the Civil War; most of the battles he was involved in ended in defeat and resulted in tremendous losses for the Confederate Army"

I obviously don't know Bragg's family, but personally I'd feel insulted for my family member's name to be used like this. He's not being honored—they pulled his name out of a list of alternatives to intentionally associate him with a confederate traitor and slaver.

Legacy media is sleepwalking us into fascism.

A tweet from Carole Cadwalladr warns of an alleged illegal power grab in the U.S., calling it a "digital coup" led by Elon Musk. Below the tweet is a screenshot of The New York Times front page with headlines about Musk's team gaining access to Treasury payment systems. Large red text over the image reads, "IT'S A COUP."
