If you think a $1000 healthcare subsidy deposited into your bank account is going to offset healthcare costs, I’ve got a bridge to sell you in a desert.

The House Republican Armed Services Committee chair says the Hegseth boat-strike probe is “done.”

But key questions remain unanswered, and the 2nd video Trump promised is nowhere to be found.

Americans deserve full accountability. It's Congress’ duty to provide it.

Immigrants ‘plucked out of line’ at citizenship ceremony at Faneuil Hall “the cradle of liberty”.

If you ever claimed you want immigrants to do it the right way, this should outrage you. On the other hand, If you think this was okay, you need to come to terms with your white nationalist views.

We now learn that Fifa had a very specific "ask" in exchange for its "Peace Award" to Trump, with loads of gold trinkets, and that was dismissal of a criminal corruption case against senior Fifa officials. And Trump granted it. Another corrupt bargain, barely noticed (and ignored by US media).

TRUMP: “I said why is it we only take people from shithole countries? Why can't we have some people from Norway, Sweden, Denmark… But we always take people from Somalia— places that are filthy, dirty, disgusting.”

Such a mystery what he means when he says this stuff, isn’t it?

I think Noem has too many eyes on her, in part because of the Strategy Group story, and may not be around much longer.

If she was initially involved, they want to look for someone lower profile to continue it. Edgar could be that.

I hadn't thought about the Luna connection. That's interesting.
