Poland’s Foreign Minister Sikorski: basically calling Trump a liar. “The US no longer finances this war since January of last year. In other words, for more than a year and a half. The US has not contributed a single cent to the defense of Ukraine. We are doing it. Europe.”

This is barely getting any attention as Russia’s escalating attacks turn deadly. Over the past few days, several tankers have been attacked, two have sunk, and several people have been killed. One of the tankers was attacked today in Romania’s territorial waters. So in NATO territory.

Texas is delaying its typical September 1 release of maternal mortality data until December 1, conveniently timed to be after the midterm election. Recent reports have shown a sharp rise in ectopic pregnancy deaths after the abortion ban went into effect. www.austinchronicle.com/news/texas-p...

Why would Trump end a program that saves you money by letting you file your taxes for free with the IRS? Maybe because TurboTax's parent company donated $1 million to Trump's inauguration. Call it out for what it is: corruption.

I know I have RTd this several times, but: the WHOLE POINT of the State Department is that it’s supposed to be full of people who deal with other countries, and who could therefore be expected to look at that map and know IMMEDIATELY that it was wrong.

Thought we didn’t have money in the USA for healthcare. Yet the Defense Department’s latest estimate puts the cost of the war with Iran at $37.5 billion. Funny how we’re always told we can’t afford to invest in people’s health, but somehow tens of billions of dollars for war can be found.

AOC: This is an inhaler pump. Can you guess what the great innovation was that made it worth preventing this from going generic? It’s this little plastic piece right here. That was a major part of the new patent they filed to extend exclusivity and prevent this life-saving drug from going generic.
