Yes. And why they manufactured the great TikTok scare in the first place. Curious how Facebook’s active role has been almost universally ignored by mainstream media. fortune.com/2022/03/31/fac…
“This is not a normal country. It’s a reality TV freakshow in which a crypto outlaw can announce he’s buying $100 million worth of the president’s shitcoin & nothing happens. Except the price goes up & the bad guys get to cash out on the backs of hapless MAGA speculators.”
I've since learned that there's also an Aqua 0 Foundation. Same people who sent team Trump $80m+. Whoever they are. jacobsilverman.com/p/he-will-stea…
Pennsylvania’s Solar for Schools program is popular. But it’s losing access to a key federal grant under Trump’s tax bill, and could also lose state funding. Here’s the lay of the land as budget talks continue. spotlightpa.org/news/2025/07/t…
Internal DOJ messages bolster claim that Trump judicial nominee spoke of defying court orders ow.ly/wxba106fmhn
Arizona showing how k-12 vouchers will become private college tuition. All part of the seven mountains plan…
At @12News, we uncovered how Empowerment Scholarships primarily helped wealthy families and hurt high-performing schools. Tonight at 6 p.m., we have exclusive data to show how hundreds of millions in voucher funds (tax dollars) have been stockpiled and can be used for college.
Statement posted by employee who was just purged from Justice Dept: "So many of us in this country are feeling powerless these days. We appear to be driving straight into an abyss that holds no memory of what democracy is, was, or should be.."
The government is putting more and more pressure on journalists reporting on @ICEgov. We all must speak out against these chilling tactics. freedom.press/issues/ice-wan…
Three Republican-appointed judges just made it harder to cancel subscriptions you don’t want. It's absurd that you can't just click to cancel. @linamkhan fought for that change. But now companies can trap you in subscriptions and squeeze you for every penny.
No more searching for how to cancel your subscriptions. Today, the FTC finalized a "Click-to-Cancel" rule to make it as easy to cancel a subscription as it is to sign up for one. Thank you, @linakhanFTC!
The Trump administration is outsourcing federal immigration power to local law enforcement, opening the door for further abuses of power in the service of the Trump's political goals. We’re suing to ensure the public has the information it’s entitled to. americanoversight.org/new-lawsuit-se…
This is one of the many reasons MAGA simply cannot be taken seriously in its constant drive to victim hood. Superman was written by two Jewish immigrants as a direct counter to Nazi propaganda. It has ALWAYS been “political”
Travis: I wanted to go see Superman, I'm not that interested in going to see it now— this moron with his take deciding to say Superman was super political and it was about an immigration story—I think he's alienated half the country and he made a really poor decision.
NEW: the Trump admin has moved to terminate TPS for Honduras and Nicaragua, covering over 50,000 people Both of these designations date back to 1999, meaning Trump wants to strip legal status from people who have had a background check every 18 months for the last 26 years.
(It's the 20th anniversary of the Midnight Pay Raise that shook Pennsylvania politics today, and multiple veterans of the fight are here to talk about its legacy.)
Well… where did it go @AGPamBondi? Are you lying now or were you lying then?
🚨 FOX: "The DOJ may be releasing the list of Jeffrey Epstein's clients. Will that really happen?" @AGPamBondi: "It's sitting on my desk right now to review. That's been a directive by President Trump."
Thank goodness we've gotten rid of cancel cult... oh, wait, the secretary of the treasury is pressuring a private university to strip a professor of tenure because he highlighted numbers in a way the regime never refuted, but found offensive.
I hope the nonprofit and for-profit institutions with which he is affiliated will join me in this call. If he is unwilling or unable to acknowledge the cruelty of his remarks, they should consider Harvard's example and make his unacceptable rhetoric grounds for dismissal. 4/4
Many will recall when a consortium of banks, Fannie and Freddie decided to "disrupt" the home title transfer system and then lost track of millions of property ownership records and messed up state tax systems.
Title registries. Mortgages. Rental payments. Crypto is gonna change it all for the better if we just let it. Coinbase Institute explains how.

#BrokenPost sends confusing message by not calling it a lie. Social Security letter on taxes sends confusing message, some experts say washingtonpost.com/business/2025/…
We’re not “losing” shit. We broke it intentionally. This wasn’t a solar flare that knocked out our satellites. This was us taking a machete to an advanced weather system because some dumbfucks thought it was going to own the libs rather drown their families
Just a year ago, the U.S. was better at predicting storms’ tracks than it had ever been. But now, @ZoeSchlanger reports, the country is rapidly losing state-of-the-art forecasting, just in time for hurricane season’s busiest months: theatlantic.com/science/archiv…
I could not possibly be filled with more rage after seeing Texas Republicans blame the National Weather Service forecast for the unspeakable tragedy that hit the girls camp. You were warned this would happen if you fired everyone!
Millions will lose Medicaid coverage, hospitals’ uncompensated work will increase and insurers will lose big business as a result of President Trump’s tax-and-spending-cuts law on.wsj.com/3IdDrXy
