If they go after Smith, would that evidence be disclosed in the case—and become public?

Really sad that the Vice President can’t just say the texts are bad and troubling and condemn them and lead for once - and instead feels the need to deflect and run cover for it and signal to young republicans that it’s actually no big deal.

But Trump just gave Argentina $20 billion
That’s 20,000,000.00 USD

Stevens: There’s $1.3 trillion of credit card debt. There are people putting grocery bills on credit cards and then paying interest on them. We are in an affordability crisis. Coffee is up 20%, beef is up 16%, bacon is up over 10%. And now we’re going to see health care costs skyrocket.

Wow

The Signal Clone the Trump Admin Uses Was Hacked

TeleMessage, a company that makes a modified version of Signal that archives messages for government agencies, was hacked.

They’re not coming for the most dangerous or violent. They are abducting people at their jobs, calling them in for fake check-ins to meet their daily quotas, and kidnapping US citizens.

They’re coming to tear apart our communities. The cruelty is the point.

🚨BREAKING: Arizona’s 7th District is certified — Adelita Grijalva is now U.S. Rep. Mike Johnson’s last excuse is gone. No more lies. No more delays. Swear her in NOW so she can do her job. They can delay, lie, and hide—but the Epstein files aren’t going anywhere. The cover-up is cracking.

Hey. Hi. Tom Homan is on camera taking a $50k bribe and no one knows where the money went. If this was any other administration, this would be non-stop on the news. Why are we normalizing this stuff?

FOX: You said last week that you would swear in Grijalva whenever she wants. She has written a letter to your office. You have not sworn her in. Doesn't your resistance add fuel to the fire that this is about Epstein?

MIKE JOHNSON: No. This is another partisan manufactured thing

I’m sure the people who were *pissed* that Hunter Biden sold paintings are equally furious about Barron Trump reportedly being tapped for the TikTok board.

Right?

This deserves more attention. North Carolina wiped out $6.5 Billion in medical debt for 2.5 million residents. Less than 1/3 of what we paid to bail out Argentina.

Dear funding agencies,

I know we all want to discover the wonder drug that will cure the horrible diseases, but to do that, we need to invest in basic, unsexy, foundational research on how the systems work. Funding can’t all be drug development.

Sincerely,
Looking for basic research grants.

FLORIDA now requires public schools to share space with charter schools, and “one charter operator intends to occupy space in more than 100 public schools (!)” 🤔
