Unpopular opinion: The fact that they can quickly install data centers nationally means they could've been updating infrastructure which they claimed was too difficult and expensive.

Trump went from making insane genocidal threats this morning to hyping the “golden age” of Iran hours later, and he received no concessions in between. He’s an absolute basket case who needs to be removed from power before he follows through on one of his mass murder fantasies.

When Trump says it won’t end up costing the United States to illegally invade and “control” Venezuela because of the value of their oil, he means there will be a massive public cost, but that’s ok because private companies and oligarchs, including his family, will make a ton of money.

If average HealthCare.gov plan premiums double in a few months due to Republican inaction, 4 million people will lose health insurance. Without health coverage, many will get sicker or skip care entirely. So much for “Make America Healthy Again.”

Trump doesn’t get to “determine” we’re at war—that’s Congress’s job. Check the Constitution, Art. 1, Sec 8, Clause 11.  And while he’s talking tough out of one side of his mouth, he’s disbanding the DOJ task force fighting cartels with the other. This isn’t about public safety. It’s a power grab.
