Jellyroll sitting behind 45/47 eating boogers is the perfect foreshadowing of the next four years.

NEW: In June, ProPublica reported that the FDA has given more than 20 foreign factories a special pass to send drugs to the U.S. even though they were made at plants the agency had banned. Today, we’re publishing a list of those exempted drugs.

They said it was about law, security, or saving money. But behind every excuse is a policy built on cruelty — quietly punishing the vulnerable. From ICE jailing sick kids… To cutting health funds during outbreaks… To slashing food aid as families go hung adamkinzinger.substack.com/p/america-th...

“Trump has always known this instinctually. Central to his appeal is his ignorance and audacity; big, dumb, racist, white men are a dime a dozen in MAGA country. He knows how to appeal to their greed and their bigotry. In many ways that has always been at the heart of the Trump brand.”

Not the same indeed.

WOW!

Van Hollen: And it's also important that people understand this case is not just about one man. It's about protecting the constitutional rights of everybody who resides in the United States of America.

Crockett: This is coming from someone who clearly reads on a first grade level. So I don't know why she's trying to clown Sarah, who obviously is a constituent of hers

HANDS OFF 2025!

Senator Booker: What kind of man is in the white house that makes fun of the disabled, who lies so much that the fact checkers lose count, that minimizes the pain and the suffering

WOOT!

We will not be distracted. We will not be discouraged. We’ve got our eyes on the prize. And we will build the prosperous, free nation for all that we deserve. The time to organize is now. OcasioCortez.com

Musk’s AI Grok calculates that Elon's DOGE cuts will kill at least 3.88 million people worldwide and 520,000 USians. #3E

Himes: This is his life now. He’s nowhere near qualified for the position he holds, so when he gets on a Signal chat with his buddies and says, ‘We’re a go. Centcom says all in. F-18s,’ it just makes him feel really, really good. Sadly, of course, it puts our people at risk.

BREAKING: A second federal judge has barred the military from enforcing its ban on transgender service members. Details TK storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

1. OMG. The main concern is not the ability to hack Signal; it’s that if a foreign government has penetrated the phone of a person who is using Signal, they can read all of the communications on that phone in real time.

Duckworth goes on Fox and Baier reads her statement calling Hegseth a “f**king liar”

This hasn’t aged well.

This is hilarious. #Greenland

ICYMI — JD Vance, the Vice President of the United States, called it “excellent” that an entire civilian apartment building was destroyed to take out a “top missile guy” (and his girlfriend) War Plans? Clearly. War crimes? Definitely.

Not to be a wide-eyed naïf about such things but... am I right in thinking that they levelled an entire building to get to one guy and *that* is not controversial to anyone in the American media or political class, only that this information was recklessly shared in an unsecured chat?

2022: "The Supreme Court would NEVER overturn Roe v. Wade!" 2025: "The administration would NEVER take away Social Security!"

The Agriculture Department has axed two programs that gave schools and food banks money to buy food from nearby farms and ranchers. Roughly $660 million that schools and child care facilities were counting on to purchase food has been canceled. This will hurt both kids and small, local farmers.

One of my companies informed me they cancelled a $2m conference in Florida. Why ? They didn’t feel they could pass on the incremental cost of tariffs. So they are cutting expenses. That’s a city that lost a ton of tourism revenue. The cost of tariffs isn’t just the cost of the tariff

Too bad Uvalde Elementary didn’t sell Teslas.

ICYMI: A judge ruled that Elon Musk’s DOGE must comply with FOIA requests, rejecting the administration’s position that the office is exempt from the US transparency law -- and ordering DOGE to preserve records in the meantime www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

It's official: The lunatics are now running the asylum.

Make no mistake, this will happen daily until January 20, 2029 ...

Moulton: He doesn’t have any sons or daughters who served in the military after 9/11. If just one of them had signed up, maybe he would know that we served on the ground alongside Canadian troops, French troops, troops from the UK, the Danes, the Poles—And you know, they lost a lot of lives there

The FAA approved another launch before the last crash investigation was completed — and it ended in another disaster. Why is SpaceX getting a free pass from DOGE cuts? 🤔

This Sunday, the whole country needs to spring forward from 1939.

When America faltered, others stood up to lead.

I’ll be seeking Unanimous Consent today for a Resolution condemning Musk & Trump for indiscriminately firing thousands of vets, & demanding those jobs back. They regard our nation’s heroes as trash in their self-serving search for savings.

No, but if you’re looking for one, I am aware of a guy you work with that was indicted four times and convicted of thirty-four felonies.

BREAKING: USCP is arresting Enrique Tarrio for swiping his hand at a counterprotester who got in his face.

Medicaid is not for sale. NASA is not for sale. The Post Office is not for sale. America is not for sale. We have an obligation to resist kings. We outnumber them. And they can be overwhelmed.

If you wanted to cut waste, fraud, and abuse, you would empower the inspectors general. If you wanted more waste, fraud, and abuse, you would fire them.

The Guardian calls it what it is: a coup. ‘This is a coup’: Trump and Musk’s purge is cutting more than costs, say experts www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

I like that he posted a picture of a print-out of the email.

Money talks

Unbelievable the number of things happening under this administration

As you know, I've been in communication with hundreds of federal workers & I've noticed a pattern. This is totally anecdotal, but I feel like I need to say something. For at least 5 agencies, the payment systems went offline briefly & were then restored - all around the time DOGE was there. 1/
