Democracy Wins As Senate Quietly Kills Trump's SAVE America Act As soon as Senate Republicans moved on to voting on a budget resolution, debate ended on the SAVE America Act without a vote, which means that Trump's election rigging bill is dead.

Maybe it's just me but I don't think Jeffrey Epstein's clients should be the ones to decide if Jeffrey Epstein's clients should be prosecuted.

Dismantling Voice of America was one of the most devastating things I’ve witnessed. VOA wasn’t propaganda, it was proof that free press could criticize its own leaders and still survive. And now we’re throwing away one of our greatest tools of freedom.

U.S. Considers Financial Support for Oil-Rich U.A.E.

Seems like NYT should have mentioned that UAE's spymaster bought 49% of Trump's World Liberty Financial and used $2B of its USD1 stablecoin, directing hundreds of millions to Trump.

"Few approve of how Donald Trump is handling the cost of living" – Overall: 33-67 – Immigration: 40-59 – Iran: 32-67 – Economy: 30-70 – Cost of living: 23(!)-76 "The nationwide poll was conducted April 16-20, 2026 using the AmeriSpeak® Panel, the probability-based panel of NORC at the University of Chicago. Online and telephone interviews using landlines and cell phones were conducted with 2,596 adults. The overall margin of sampling error is +/- 3.4 percentage points."

There's no other way to say it: This AP-NORC poll is atrocious for Trump.

– Overall: 33-67
– Immigration: 40-59
– Iran: 32-67
– Economy: 30-70
– Cost of living: 23(!)-76

37% of Republicans disapprove of his handling of the economy, 47% disapprove on cost of living.

Our Afghan allies provided critical support to U.S. forces for over 20 years, but the Trump-Vance Administration has turned its back on them and their families, shutting down key resettlement programs. The idea that we’re now in talks to send as many as 1,100 Afghans, whom we have already evacuated, to the DRC—a country with severe political instability, violence, and a massive refugee and humanitarian crisis—is insane. [1/2]

We told these Afghans that we would help ensure their safety after they helped us. We have an obligation to follow through on our promise because it’s the right thing to do, and because going back on our word will only make it harder for us to build the kinds of partnerships we may need to advance our national security in the future. [2/2]

My statement on reports that the Trump-Vance Administration may send Afghans, including those who served with the U.S. military and more than 400 children, to the Congo:

Last year, the flu vaccine saved 12,000 lives and prevented over 100,000 hospitalizations according to the CDC.

Ted Lieu: “The reality is that this cabinet's out of control incompetence & corruption have made it the worst cabinet since 1776

The Atlantic put out an article that shows that Kash Patel appears to be a raging alcoholic — he should not be FBI director. He should go seek help & treatment”

Genetically engineered T-cells are on a mission to obliterate cancer cells. A breakthrough in cancer treatment that could change lives forever.

I’ll never get over the fact that US Health is being run by a deranged asshole drug addict who has admitted to snorting cocaine off of a toilet seat and who has a disgusting fascination with cutting off penises from dead animals.

Netanyahu and his IDF are turning Israel into an international pariah state.

Yeah that will solve all of our problems…..

RFK Jr. is the perfect example of someone striving to create a "master race" that he would not be allowed to be a part of.

Rising Fuel Costs And Falling Demand Spur Canada’s Airlines To Cut US Routes Amid rising jet fuel prices and lower demand from Canadians to travel to the U.S., airlines are cutting back on flights between the two countries.

BALDWIN: Do you think NIH should fund less cancer research?

RFK Jr: No, they should fund more, & one of the few agencies that got a raise in the budget was NCI

B: That increase is less than $1m for an institute with a $7b budget. That's a .01% increase. It wouldn't even cover one additional grant

Ossoff: "You were talking earlier about Jared Kushner. The guy leading our diplomacy in the Middle East is bringing in billions from Middle Eastern princes and sheiks and going around the region asking for billions more while he conducts nuclear diplomacy on behalf of the country. It's obscene."

Yet again I remind everyone (as Elizabeth does in her very next tweet) that "foreigners are corrupting our pure blood with weakness & disease" is Fascism 101. Not some variant, not some metaphorically similar thing, not some echo -- the thing itself.

When a sitting U.S. president makes insulting remarks about Canada and threatens its sovereignty, I’ll criticize the United States and its administration if I bloody well please. What happens in that country has a big impact in the world, so no, I won’t “stay in my own lane.”

Excellent takedown of fake Christian Pete Hegseth's fake Christian spiritual mentor.

I know the Christian Nationalist "pastor" would have a weak response, but I was not ready for him to respond to a litany of detailed indictments with a silly, lame meme. These trolls are not serious people.

Washington Examiner: Imagine it was someone other than President Donald Trump. Suppose a different leader were posting deranged rants in the small hours, insulting the spiritual leader of 1.3 billion Catholics, threatening entire civilizations with annihilation, and comparing himself to God. What would be the reaction?

Where U.S. science has been hit hardest after Trump’s first year The Trump administration has slashed the number of grants from the National Institutes of Health, with far fewer focused on women, cancer and mental health.

During Trump's first year the NIH supported 2,700 fewer projects, including a 31% drop in projects with the word "women" in them.

Trump's attack on science is undermining American innovation & more importantly, is an attack on Americans' health.

What the hell is wrong with Israel...bombing and killing innocent people, destroying homes, over a million Lebanese left homeless. This has got to end for crying out loud ☹️

I once heard a friend say that he didn't believe a woman should be President because we're too emotional. Name ONE woman who has ever gone on a shooting rampage out of anger.
