RFK Jr: "President Trump has a different way of calculating percentages. If you have a $600 drug and you reduce it to $10, that's a 600% reduction."

Starting a mid-decade redistricting war only to end up with -1 seats is the same fine strategic genius and subtle grasp of game theory that brough us the Strait of Hormuz.

This pretty much says it all ... redistricting is at the heart of Republicanism ...

just came to ask the same thing. I never heard the term before the past week. And the Air Force is going to excavate it?

No, the guy in the armband.

Blanket. I have no idea what his real name is.

The person negotiating in the Middle East on behalf of the United States does not technically work for the United States.

This should be a much bigger story.

The Trump administration is about to hand TotalEnergies, a French oil company, nearly $1 billion of your money to cancel its American offshore wind projects. And they are pulling the cash from an account they are not allowed to use this way.🧵

What is wrong with the people who make decisions like this?

This is a rotten deal that the Trump regime has rubber stamped.

State AGs must step in and block it.

The artwork is titled "Pope Leo XIV" and portrays a tension-filled scene between the two figures.

I follow the news more than the average person, and I have no idea from one minute to the next if the Strait is open and still don't know why we attacked Iran.

I'm so grossed out our local news is live streaming this garbage on its home page. l

bizarre scenes at the Trump event in Vegas. Trump is running an hour late and counting so now his fans are doing some sort of singalong

do they sell "groceries" there?

I love him so much.

I know the ballroom bunker is big, but a hospital and medical facilities (plural) big?

I have the same question as Aaron. But, also this - why would the POTUS post planned security measures re the White House publicly? 🙃

Bluesky was down for me for a few hours but seems to be slowly coming back (if that's what you're testing)

What a petty, vengeful, hateful little man.

good grief, not even my A/C bill is remotely that high in Phoenix in summer.

Whistleblower says Trump officials thought USAID did 'just abortions,' asked for 'Barney-style' slides before gutting agency, per new book Read an exclusive excerpt from Nicholas Enrich's "Into the Wood Chipper"

NEW—I got an exclusive excerpt from a USAID whistleblower's new book that made me gasp multiple times. It details Trump's dismantling of the humanitarian aid agency & his team/DOGE's shocking ignorance to public health.

'Into the Wood Chipper' by Nicholas Enrich is out tomorrow. Read excerpt here:

AFAIK Pope Leo is an American citizen and taxpayer and allowed to comment on American politics.

Since when is arguing with the Pope a thing Catholics do?

Hungarians celebrated the landslide defeat of Orban by singing "We Are the Champions" out in the streets

CARDINAL CUPICH: “We’re dehumanizing victims of war by turning the suffering of people and the killing of children and our own soldiers into entertainment. It’s sickening.”

No wonder Trump lashed out at the Pope today.
