Trump's EPA doesn't care about you, your kids or pets. It has approved several new pesticides and their use on crops. This includes 2 new fluorinates considered to be PFAS, or "forever chemicals" for corn, soybeans and wheat. You want to eat cancer causing, hormonal disrupting foods? EPA says yes.

Uber has launched its "Women Only" driver program. I took advantage a couple days ago on a ride to the airport. Easy to do, and I got a great driver.

These women are people. These women are speaking up for all girls and all women. Our culture gives permission to wealthy men to break the law, harm without care and hurt children. Their money gives them immunity. Maybe.

All our military leaders from around the entire world have been forced to return to the USA. 1. Time for a group photo. Hegseth has removed as many women and people of color as he could. 2. It's the perfect moment for an enemy to attack us or an ally. 3. Our military doesn't deserve the stress.

This language and the on-purpose word choices are so, so racist. It tells me everything I need to know about just who is equal in America. The idea that without a strong back, a worker dies is a sneaky slavery reference. Many thanks to Sherrilyn Ifill for pointing out this language.

They’re not going to get out of this by playing semantics. Sending detailed information about an upcoming military strike on unclassified channels (and even to the wrong guy) is wrong, reckless, and obviously a threat to American troops.

Fox News reported that JD Vance had to move to an “undisclosed location” due to protests at the Vermont resort where he’s skiing this weekend. For inflicting misery on the world and here at home in America, this is exactly the energy that should greet Vance wherever he goes for the rest of his days.

Musk is a billionaire, and his Super Bowl ads support the lies of the party he owns, now. Remember, Republicans are silent in the face of Musk's and Trump's grift and the invasion of our federal government. I prefer us giving food and medication to the people who most need it, wherever they are.

Now it’s all starting to make sense

🚨BREAKING NEWS FROM @PunchbowlNews :

Rep. Matt Gaetz's (R-Fla.) resignation from Congress came two days before the House Ethics Committee was set to vote on releasing a “highly damaging” report outlining its investigation into the Republican, according to multiple sources familiar with the probe.

The committee planned to vote Friday on releasing the report. Ethics loses its jurisdiction over Gaetz when he leaves Congress.

The secretive panel has been investigating Gaetz on and off since 2021.

President-elect Donald Trump announced that he would nominate Gaetz to be attorney general Wednesday.
