So we rigged the election and LOST??! And forgot to do the down ballot candidates so we could hand over the Senate and House to MAGA? Make it make sense.
Yes. This is why we historically employed smart people at the CDC.

We haven´t investigated the Epstein files, yet we run our country on its people!
As the screwworm spreads... Remember that Elon Musk’s DOGE cut $15M from a screwworm monitoring program. And we're now learning that Trump’s USDA delayed a project to develop new ways to contain the parasite and held up construction of a monitoring facility. The incompetence is dangerous.
For reference concerning Trump’s Iran “deal” compared to Obama.

Why doesn’t MELANIA denounce that hideous comment about Michelle Obama? No grace. Simply disgusting.
"The Art Of Complete and Total Surrender" by Donald J. Trump
I like presidents that, when they say “unconditional surrender”, they mean the other country
If a Democratic president started a war of choice, spent $100s of billions, blew up international military & economic alliances, then completely surrendered giving opposing nation $100s of billions in reparations while empowering their anti-US regime: Corporate Media would have justly crucified him.
Really hard to imagine becoming a trillionaire and not wanting to immediately liquidate enough assets to give at least a few hundred billion to organizations making the world a better place.
FWIW, if you’re holding high level emergency strategy meetings on how to “spin” the Epstein files, 3 things quickly become clear to everyone: 1) you are in the Epstein files. Significantly. 2) you are a very bad actor in Epstein’s heinous criminal activities. 3) you can’t spin, so you COVER-UP
Remember when Hillary and Kamala stormed outta those interviews because they couldn’t handle the questions yah me neither
I thought people were kidding, turns out Elon really did axe the screwworm containment program back in March 25. fucking imbecile www.agri-pulse.com/articles/226...

Three years ago tomorrow, I very nervously gave this speech. I knew my career as a TV journalist was dunzo, cooked, filleted, kaput the morning I wrote it. (Thanks to Kat insisting I go for it anyway.) The end is awfully prescient at this exact second, though. Big ups to Scott Pelley for fighting.
The Supreme Court is expected to rule soon on two campaign finance cases that could forever change our elections. @davidsirota.com explains how SCOTUS is about to legalize corruption.

Stephen Colbert had Paul McCartney and Bruce Springsteen during the final week of his show. Donnie Dotard can't even get Milli Vanilli.
Oliver Darcy got the audio of the heated 60 Minutes meeting where Scott Pelley dressed Nick Bilton down! "You know what was rude? Black Thursday. That was the absolute definition of rudeness. Telling Tanya Simon she had to be out of here at five o'clock." www.status.news/p/scott-pell...
