Until now we were subsidizing Affordable Care Act healthcare plans and investing hundreds of billions of dollars in infrastructure and manufacturing jobs, but then Americans elected Trump and he pissed all that away.

1. Tonight at Gillette Stadium, Zach Bryan, one of the biggest country music artists in the world, wore a Free Palestine shirt onstage. Gillette Stadium is owned by Robert Kraft, who pushed Ed Sheeran and his promoter to drop Macklemore from his tour. Bryan isn’t just a major country artist.

It is easy enough to see why Trump cut what used to be a White House staple... transcriptionists. The reason being he embarrasses himself when people actually read what he says. Trump has been, is, and will continue to be nearly functionally illiterate shown by the words he utters.

In his conversation with El-Sayed, Jesse Watters said "space force" is monitoring the Iranians so they can't collect their nuclear materials from a mountain. Space Force is not. The National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency is. If you're going to be on TV claiming to "know", then you should know.
