Lyrics from Irving Berlin’s 1941 song about Hitler: “When that man is dead and gone” “Satan thought up a plan/dressed as a man/walking the earth/And since he began/the world is hell for you and me/but what a heaven it will be/when that man is dead and gone.” www.americaamerica.news/p/this-cant-...

This Can’t Go On for Two More Years

Swooning over China’s repressive communist dictator and belligerently acting out at the United Nations. Yes, it’s a psychiatric emergency.

They published this the same day they published the news that Mamdani's office is releasing to the public thousands of documents showing Giuliani's office knew how toxic the air was around Ground Zero and lied about it, leading to more deaths than on 9/11.

In a story that's built on questions of Giuliiani's credibility vs. Mamdani's, the New York Times should have pointed out that Giuliani has been disbarred in both Washington, DC, and New York.

Amazingly, letting Americans have healthcare insurance is "communism" for the GOP, whereas the Government seizing a controlling stake in 21 companies is not. They have some very strange idea of what communism is.

The President of the United States repeatedly lying about American citizens and trying to lock them up in a pathetic attempt to cover up a botched renovation of the Reflection Pool that wasted millions of taxpayer dollars should be a much bigger story in the news.

Joan Baez painted a portrait of Dr. Fauci August 2020, featuring the word "TRUST" as a tribute to his scientific truth-telling during the COVID-19 pandemic. The viral artwork became part of her Mischief Makers 2 art exhibit and sparked a lasting personal friendship between the two.

A reminder that Dr. Anthony Fauci is the recipient of a Presidential Medal of Freedom before it was trashed up by MAGA, the National Medal of Science and many honorary degrees. He has over 5 decades of public service and has advised 7 Presidents. The orange felon has 34 felonies.

After a lifetime of public service and dedication to the health of Americans and people around the world it is obscene that Dr. Anthony Fauci is being forced to sit in front of this Congressional committee and face these absurd accusations.

USA Today: “The 2026 [Cadillac] Escalade has a manufacturer’s suggested retail price starting in the low $90,000’s, though upgrades take it well north of six figures. Its high-performance V-series runs about $170,000.” Republicans are not the “party of fiscal responsibility” at all.

this comparison leaves out a key point: the Edsel sold roughly twice the Cybertruck's volume at a time when the overall car market was just 6m units/year instead of the current 16m units/year that makes the Cybertruck the much, much bigger flop, hands down

This week, TPS for Haitians is expected to end. No state will feel the impact more than Florida, home to roughly 350,000 -- many of them healthcare workers. “The workers are suffering, but the patients are going to suffer more.” My latest for @motherjones.com: www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

Florida's nursing homes are bracing for life without Haitian TPS workers

The Supreme Court ended its legal status. Their patients will pay the price.
