Pete Ricketts said marijuana will kill your kids. He said it causes school shootings. He said it will stop America from reindustrializing. Watch this DNN special report for more.

Moskowitz: We need $30 billion to extend, obviously, these healthcare subsidies, which allow Americans—Americans, not illegal—Americans, citizens, to afford healthcare. And the president’s like, “We don’t have $30 billion, but I am going to send $40 billion to my dear friend in Argentina.”

Remind me, when Trump himself was on trial, did he want it all rushed through as quickly as possible or did he demand due process be applied to him?

Trump on Fox & Friends: "One thing I say is we have to have quick trials. I called it quick trial. 'Cause in China they do have quick trials, you know? ... They should have a trial the following day."

It's cold in Omaha -10. I hoped to capture the holiday lights in this shot but they took them down a few days prior. 🤷 #Omaha #Nebraska #Snow #cityscapephotography #urbanphotography

What the president has tried to do in the last 24 hours is illegal. His actions threatened millions of Illinoisans' access to health care, food, and even fuel to heat their homes. I will stay vigilant in defense of IL because if you come for my people, you come through me.

According to PolitiFact, Trump kept only 23% of his campaign promises during his first term. Now, with weeks to go before starting his second, he’s already walking back some of his biggest 2024 pledges. Team Big Picture breaks down these reversals in their latest piece.

Candidate Trump promised to lower grocery prices, but now it seems he isn't even going to try. While champagne corks pop at Mar-a-Lago, President-elect Trump says that he can't really lower grocery prices because it's "very hard." Sad. It’s the start of a broken promise.

I have not seen this comparison map before. But it does a great job of illustrating the disparity that exists; rural areas carry disproportionate representation in our government.

Land doesn’t vote. Stop pretending it does.

I shot this not long ago, I use it for sky replacements in some photos. Seems like it fits here so I used it as my cover photo. Feel free to nab it. #photography #landscape #bluesky
