Walz: I think Kristi Noem probably should go back to South Dakota, not have any dogs, and just kind of ride things out

In their confirmation hearings, RFK Jr pledged he would not be anti-vax, Hegseth said he respected women serving in leadership positions in the military, and Bondi said she would not weaponize DOJ against Trump’s political enemies.

This is still an ongoing crisis and not getting nearly enough media attention. Please share. @atrupar.com @hcrichardson.bsky.social @joycewhitevance.bsky.social

Trump has built the most racially and gender-exclusive administration in modern U.S. history: 84% male and 90% white. While saddening, it's NOT shocking. This is the result of an administration undermining racial equity and committed to rolling back DEI at every level.

I hope they can all be held accountable.

This is a highly unusual order from a Secretary of Defense, and it’s almost certainly a war crime. In the strike in question, two people survived and were clinging to the side of the ruined boat, and a second mission was spun up to execute them.

Huh? US hospitals aren’t “fully funded by gov’t and donations”, nor are they federally owned, aside from VA hospitals. Most are nonprofits, though they strain that definition at times. Private equity has been buying up hospitals for a long time already, check the Stewart scandal in MA for example.

Isn't there already a shortage of healthcare professionals? This is *not* going to help. (That may be the intention- making it so only the wealthy can get adequate care.)

As a person who spent 4 months in a nicu and juvenile intensive care unit while the hospital tried to save my son, I can tell you nurses are the most professional and dedicated people in the medical profession.

Yes! I feel the greater understanding of toxic masculinity ties into the concepts of decolonisation and healing. I have three male friends whose skills blow me away every time they speak - but they had to wade through a lot of fire to get there, and are not the type of men considered "worthy"...

Trump followed Putin’s advice and revoked the offer of Tomahawk missiles to Ukraine. The leaked call comes just days after the U.S. presented a 28-point peace plan to end the war in Ukraine, largely reflecting Russian positions.

If at some point today your uncle or your sibling or your acquaintance asks you why you are still talking about the pandemic even after all this time, kindly but firmly tell them that you are still talking about this pandemic because even after all this time it has not ended.

So not only was the DC shooter granted asylum by this administration, but he also has ties to the CIA and was even in possession of a CIA-issued ID. This administration gives one no choice but to entertain conspiracy theories.

The subtext in JD Vance asking for "patience" on the economy: When leaders stop talking about current conditions and jump straight to rosy forecasts, they’re signaling the present isn’t defensible. That’s your cue to scrutinize the numbers, not just the narrative.

The STRESS the Trump Administration has INFLICTED is deadly. People like me w/chronic illness, people w/cancer, seniors, children, it's DESPICABLE! Stress is shown to cause & exacerbate cardiac conditions, increase flares for people w/autoimmune diseases, etc. This is NOT making America "healthier".

Trump's own lawyer just admitted to the Supreme Court that American consumers pay 30%-80% of these insane Trump tariffs. Over the next 10 years, Trump says they will collect over $4T in tariffs. So that means American families are going to be paying $1.2T-$3.3 trillion dollars in TARIFF TAXES.
