Austerity for thee, a ballroom for me: The two Americas under Trump
While Trump asks Americans to tighten their belts, his administration is spending billions on apparent vanity projects. The "drain the swamp" president has become the swamp. A look at who's really sacrificing in Trump's America, and who isn't.

Moriarty: "A police officer of color who was off duty was boxed in by ICE - she's a citizen - they demanded to know who she was & see her papers. She was going to try to record it & they ripped the phone out of her hand. That happened to a cop. That's what's happening here on the streets of MN."

Kimmel’s back—proof that public pressure can make a difference. But folks in our region won’t be able to watch tonight because KOMO’s owner, Sinclair, refuses to air the show on its ABC stations. It’s corporate cowardice to censor programming just because the president doesn’t like it.

This bears repeating. The whole, ‘good for your immune system’ rhetoric is nonsense generally, but it’s PARTICULARLY dangerous when it comes to measles 👇
Screenshot:

Recovering from measles does not protect against cancer or any other disease besides measles. In fact, a measles infection has the ability to wipe out immune responses built up against other infections— a phenomenon called immune amnesia, driven by the destruction of memory T- and B-cells. This leaves people who recover from the measles virus more vulnerable to all other germs.

The most frustrating thing about Smith's report is that the facts were known: Trump planned in advance to use false claims of voter fraud to challenge a loss, his words incited J6 violence, he supported rioters, calling them things like "patriots," & Americans, nonetheless, reelected him.
