If someone can’t clearly say “Yes, Donald Trump lost the 2020 election,” they shouldn’t be confirmed to anything.

RFK Jr. told the House E&C Committee today that the way to bring down healthcare costs is to "clean up the risk pool" — remove the people who cost too much. He said the $4.3 trillion we spend on chronic disease is the emergency. He said most of Minnesota's autism services funding was stolen. 🧵
Trials. From top to bottom, the whole chain, from the White House to those pressing the button.
No one is amazed, I guess, that Trump couldn't find one (1) non-Jeffrey Epstein customer to be Fed Chair?
“To say that President Trump is corrupt is to somehow understate the size, scope and magnitude of his corruption.
It is as if you were to describe a modern thermonuclear device as a ‘bomb.’ That is true enough, but it is not quite the truth. It does not capture the nature of the thing in full.”
Careful with over-funding the Brownshirts, it'll make the Pentagon jealous
Investigating the SPLC for infiltrating far-right extremist groups is a giant flashing neon sign from the Trump regime that says "but we like these people because they vote for us!(And would kill for us)"
It shows everyone who the GOP bends the law for
“The US has provided no evidence that any of the vessels were involved in drug trafficking, and legal experts and rights groups say the attacks amount to extrajudicial killings as they apparently target civilians who do not pose any immediate threat.”

"Though Congress has been notified of the project, no members have said anything publicly, including Homeland Security Committee leaders Bennie Thompson, Rand Paul, Andrew Garbarino, and Gary Peters."
Exposing our troops to illness to own the libs like the literal death cult that they are
Republicans don't want to repeat the Dems' mistake with Ginsburg, so they'll brute-force a morally-bankrupt maga sycophant like James Ho or Aileen Cannon through before they lose their majority (as Thune all but confirms).
The Dems need to be ready for a fight and not another capitulation.
I think that large corporations have not yet internalized the high probability that Democrats are likely to have control over at least one house of Congress and thereby hold subpoena power in 10 months
You know they feel untouchable when they openly declare to journalists that they're doing war crimes and persistent human rights violations.
For all their whinging about human shields, the U.S. certainly feels like theirs right now
Did America just become a Kakistofascisoligartheocracy?! Or will Idiocracy do?
"Condemns" from an unaccountable genocidal regime is the equivalent of "sorry, not sorry"
I don't think I'll ever get over Clarence Thomas ruling on cases related to Jan 6 knowing that his wife was an active participant in the attempted coup.
Or ruling on cases related to government regulations and a wealth tax knowing he took gifts from billionaires.
It's a disgrace.
Agreed. It's clear to anyone with eyes that Trump isn't playing some 4D chess move, but rather behaving like a volatile narcissist unable to control his petty impulses to the detriment of the entire world.

the United States’ duty to safeguard tax return information under 26 U.S.C. § 6103 and the Privacy Act. The case remains in its early stages. Good cause exists to grant an extension in this matter while the Parties engage in discussions designed to resolve this matter and to avoid protracted litigation. This limited pause will neither prejudice the Parties nor delay ultimate resolution. Rather, the extension will promote judicial economy and allow the Parties to explore avenues that could narrow or resolve the issues efficiently. II. Argument A. Good Cause Supports a 90-day Extension. Courts routinely grant extensions motions where, as here, an extension serves the interests of justice and efficiency without harming any party. The Parties are engaging in discussions and need time to work through how to ensure those discussions can take place productively to avoid protracted litigation. This brief period will allow the Parties to initiate and structure those discussions in a manner that best serves the interests of all Parties and the Court
BREAKING: IRS confirms it's negotiating with Trump family to pay a "settlement" in the wildly defective lawsuit over the leak of his tax returns.

Always willing to go to war, but never interested in the material logistics of doing so. Yet more proof that soldiers are merely props exploited to meet the Republicans' own ends in their path to attain and hold power
"The U.S. State Department said that according to the agreement, Israel reserves the right to defend itself 'at any time, against planned, imminent, or ongoing attacks.'"
"Imminent" is doing a lot of heavy lifting for their inevitable excuse to violate a ceasefire Israel never wanted

Very big news: Minnesota prosecutors just charged a federal immigration agent with assault. It's not easy to bring state prosecutions against federal officers, but the law is clear that there's no absolute immunity from state prosecution. /1 statecourtreport.org/our-work/ana...
The best part might be that it contains “Top Secret Military Installations” [sic]. Not so secret anymore, genius.
France passed a law requiring solar panels on every parking lot with more than 80 spaces.
Equals 10 nuclear reactors
Reduces heat island, shades cars
The US -- 800 million parking spaces. Most of them are uncovered asphalt sitting in direct sunlight.
Why aren't we doing this?
Dear god. Very, very serious allegations of mass civil rights violations at the State of Florida's Everglades immigration detention center (officially known as "Alligator Alcatraz").
"A clear partisan divide exists among vaccine skeptics. Six in 10 Republicans surveyed favored administering fewer vaccines, compared to three in 10 Democrats."
We need to outlaw lying and peddling misinformation in government and media, this anti-science death cult bullshit is getting ridiculous.
I feel the whole ad system needs dismantled:
“However, when Googleʼs server responds to the network request with the opt-out it explicitly responds with a command to create an advertising cookie named IDE using the ‘set-cookie’ command. This non-compliance is easy to spot, hiding in plain sight.”
