The President spent more on bombs in ONE WEEK of his war with Iran than we spend in an entire YEAR to help parents afford child care.
Trump & RFK Jr. are asking to spend $500B more for war—but they won't increase funding for child care by a cent.
I feel like Sun Tzu really missed out on "Invent Pete Hegseth and give him to the enemy"
Trump has twice pilfered allocations for barracks and base improvements to divert to border security during first and second admins.
The RNC has accepted a $250,000 donation from insurrectionist Daniel Deneui.
Deneui was charged with assaulting law enforcement on January 6.
thinking abt this bc there is currently a controversy on tiktok where people are misreading and spreading a statistic from this article, saying that 62 million men were either in or interested in a telegram chat about drugging and raping their female partners when really it was like 1000 people max

@mexic0la.bsky.social I guess I'm calling you "pizza" now
A pro-Iran hacking group that has been relentlessly targeting American companies with DDoS attacks claims it disrupted Bluesky with what the social media site called a “sophisticated” attack that “intensified” on Thursday.
The Islamic Republic of Iran has officially informed Pakistan that it will not attend talks with the United States tomorrow and that its decision is final.
Vice President JD Vance has cancelled his trip to Pakistan.
The possibility exists that the war could start again in just a matter of hours.

Breaking News: President Trump is said to be in talks to send Afghans who helped the U.S. war effort to the Democratic Republic of Congo.
Anat Rubin and I co-wrote a story for @calmatters.org about the people behind Sheriff Chad Bianco's "election investigation" -- sovereign citizens, Christian nationalists, and "constitutional sheriffs."

Lufthansa is canceling 20,000 short-haul flights as jet fuel prices have doubled following the U.S. and Israeli war against Iran and the resulting disruption to global oil supplies.
Used up:
* 45% of Precision Strike Missiles
* 50% of THAAD interceptors
* 50% of Patriot air defence missiles
* Tomahawks and long-range missiles down by 20–30%
This creates a “near-term risk” for any conflict with a major power like China.

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
They're always trying to ketchup with popular sentiment
NEWS: A federal judge has saved the 15th Street protected bike lane (for now), saying the decision to remove the lane running from Constitution Avenue to the Tidal Basin was "arbitrary and capricious and not the result of reasoned decision-making." It was to be removed this week.
Warsh claimed that the Wall Street Journal had bad sources. Their source was Donald Trump himself. Either Trump lied to the Journal or Warsh just committed perjury.

BREAKING: The so called 'SAVE' Act has FAILED in the Senate and will not become law.
I wrote this piece on how in reality, this is the Voter Restriction Act to prevent women from voting. It is fascism and would have installed Trump as a permanent dictator. www.qasimrashid.com/p/the-save-a...
RFK Jr. just said that immigration is to blame for the outbreaks of vaccine-preventable diseases in the U.S., not him.
"Defendants knew that contacting the subject of a highly damaging allegation before publication is a basic requirement of responsible journalism. Their failure to do so was deliberate: they did not contact Ms. Kerkhoff because they did not want to hear evidence that would contradict their story."
"Ms. Kerkhoff and Mr. Dickert plan to move, potentially out of state, so they may escape the social isolation that Defendants’ false accusation has forced them to endure." storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...
179. Ms. Kerkhoff read Defendants’ November 8 Article in disbelief. Like on January 6, she immediately snapped into crisis response mode. 180. Ms. Kerkhoff had already retained a personal data removal service provider to scan and remove private information from data brokers and “people search” sites in preparation for Trump pardoning the January 6 defendants. She now called immediate family members and pleaded with them to do the same. She even retained and paid-for the same personal data removal service provider for her entire immediate family. 181. Ms. Kerkhoff and Mr. Dickert drove to the grocery store and bought a trunk-load of frozen food. Then, fearful for their safety, they rarely left the house for two weeks. Every time they did, they were followed. They did not know by whom: investigators, reporters, or people who believed Defendants’ false claims and intended to harm them. 182. Ms. Kerkhoff received an enormous, unwanted amount of attention from reporters. Some found her name on Venmo and attempted to send her $1 so they could “connect,” enabling them to send her direct messages. Ms. Kerkhoff was forced to disguise her identity on Venmo and to lock down her profile from public searches. Others reached out to her through Signal. She deleted that app entirely. Ms. Kerkhoff once saw a mysterious man walk up to her front door. He turned out to be a reporter for the Daily Wire. On a Friday night, Blaze Media’s editor-in-chief Christopher Bedford visited her home in Alexandria, Virginia; Blaze Media later reported that he was “pulled over by local police after stopping to observe” it.
Here's what happened after a conservative website suggested that an officer who testified in Jan. 6 cases was the pipe bomber:

i think we need to put a moratorium on announcing or discussing any product or business announcements that are happening any later than like, Q2 2027
NEW: Rep. Sheila Cherfilus-McCormick has finally resigned, after months of dragging the scandal on while cashing paychecks from American taxpayers. You don’t get credit for doing the right thing only when forced to, after repeatedly doing the wrong thing.
this misogynistic stunt is for an audience of one.
Vice President JD Vance’s trip to Pakistan for continued talks with Iran has now been officially delayed, US officials say.
The ceasefire with the United States expires in a few hours.
Today is the last day of voting on Virginia's temporary redistricting referendum.
Starting in March, a group that received donations from Peter Thiel mailed ads targeting Black voters that falsely compared the proposal to the Jim Crow era.
Choose the bear. Always the bear.
