It's an old story. Also reminds me of "Whitey on the Moon!"
Forgoing food. Cutting back on utilities. Driving less. Borrowing money. These are the sacrifices that tens of millions of people are making to afford their health care expenses, according to a West Health-Gallup Center on Healthcare in America survey released.
βͺNBC Newsβ¬ βͺ@nbcnews.comβ¬ Β· 11m Defense Department officials told senators in a closed-door briefing that they estimate the first six days of the war in Iran cost more than $11.3 billion, three sources say.
Quite the split screen:
-Millions of Americans are skipping meals or cutting back on utilities to afford health care
-First 6 days of Iran war cost $11.3 billion, Pentagon tells Congress
I love the idea that *this* US government, which has been nabbing landscapers and five year olds knows where Iranian sleeper cells are but just hasnβt gotten around to doing anything about it yet.
For more than 10 days, Iran has used Shahed drones to target American bases. But long before they flew across the Middle East, Shaheds fired by Russia targeted Ukrainian troops and infrastructure. https://to.pbs.org/4dhwNgf

That is way off. There have almost been more people killed by ICE than undocumented voting attempts. www.dailykos.com/stories/2026...
Tweet screenshot showing a Fox News post about Senator John Fetterman telling Bill Maher that a near-death experience βfreedβ him to speak out and that progressivism βleft him.β Below it, another tweet sarcastically comments, βBrain damage made me conservative.β
Perhaps his fear center in the amygdala was activated while his reasoning center in the prefrontal cortex was impaired? Or maybe he just became mean and weird.
Love this for Nancy Mace.

Thomas Massie found the Alexander brothers in the Epstein files. The DOJ redacted their last name.Kash Patel said there was no sex trafficking evidence in the filesβ¦
All three brothers were just convicted of it.
Not bad, but better yet, make it like Paul Prudhomme! cmhmdrecipes.blogspot.com/2010/01/caju...
This interview with the great @rebeccasolnit.bsky.social was a "wow" moment for me. Thanks, New York Times and David Marchese.

I couldn't help noticing the question that seemed the most Times-like to me.
the president of the united states just said he found out the country he started a war with had boats sometime after he started that war
It is already funny but now itβs become far funnier because they know everyone knows and is looking at their shoes but they still have to do this

Mockler: The neocon boomers surrounding Trump are mortgaging my generation's future for another very expensive Middle Eastern war. We tried this with Iraq. We tried this with Afghanistan. It left us in trillions and trillions of dollars in debt.
I quit teaching at Thomas Jefferson college of Population Health many years ago. They cut my course from 15 to 7 weeks, removed half the material we'd previously covered, and gave the same number of credits. I think degrees are now too often profit centers and not focused on academics.

Told yβall Elonβs DOGE team werenβt data analysts.
They were hackers!
A whistleblower says a DOGE engineer stole Social Security data and put it on a thumb drive, including personal information on hundreds of millions of Americans.
People need to go to prison for this shit.
Time to end elite impunity.

Mockler: I also find it very ironic that Republicans are so welcoming to any form of bigotry but the moment that bigotry is targeted towards them, they freak the hell out
If you listen carefully to the White House press secretary, her job, day and day out, is to look at you in the eye and say: "He is not insane. It all makes perfect sense."
I'm convinced that Trump cheated in all 3 presidential elections he ran in and he is going to try and do it again. They will TRY to delay the mid-terms but there will be a big backlash and fight against it. They won't succeed.

The Trump's gives nothing to their country . . .
... they only take !

Thanks to Trump's attacks on federal research funding, the National Cancer Institute hasn't made a single grant this fiscal year.
Just last month, Trump issued an EO to increase production of glyphosate, a chemical linked to cancer.
