In 1944, MN teenager Jeanne Gibson went to work in the Seattle shipyards welding destroyers for the Allies. She then moved to Juneau and joined the Army Transportation Corps supplying ships in the Pacific. She later got a Master’s and her pilots license. RIP, hero. 🫡 www.kron4.com/news/bay-are...

The State Department said it takes "full responsibility" for "hastily" altering and then presenting a map of Africa at a global AIDS conference that mislabeled every single country it highlighted. An analysis by Reuters found a watermark in the map image that suggests it was made with OpenAI.

RFK Jr. and Oz attacked California for its Medicaid home care, citing growth as proof of fraud. For @motherjones.com, I reported on how the growth isn't proof of fraud, and growth of participants is proof the program is more accessible than in other states. www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

California does Medicaid home care well. They're being punished for it.

Republicans are deferring $850 million from the state because of unfounded fraud claims.

It's darkly depressing that the entire GOP -- from the White House to Congress to the Supreme Court -- insists that the president and his aides cannot be held accountable for all the very clear crimes that they clearly committed, but they think Dr. Fauci should hang for alleged mishandling of COVID.

Plumbing is one of the most licensed, highly trained professions. A union apprenticeship takes 5 years w/about 10,000 hours of on-the-job training & 1200+ hours of classroom instruction. Plumbers are more educated & highly trained than Linda McMahon who has zero training in education.

The New York Times quotes MAGA Rep. Brian Mast as saying Iran has been “attacking everybody’s ships” in the Strait of Hormuz “for decades.” This is patently false, but NYT doesn’t dispute it. NYT seems to think fairness means letting Republicans lie in its stories.

“The fact of the matter is, President Trump is the first president dealing with what has been the status quo for decades — which is Iran attacking everybody’s ships, everybody’s navy, everybody’s anything going through the Strait of Hormuz,” Representative Brian Mast, the Florida Republican who chairs the Foreign Relations Committee, said on Friday during an interview on Fox News. “After this escalation from them, we are now the United States of America that says this is not going to be the status quo. It’s going to change.”
