Give a man a book, and he'll read for a week. Teach a man to write a book, and he'll never fully enjoy anything again.

"More and more cabinet members — Rubio, Miller, Noem — live on military bases now, and it's another parallel to Iraq. There’s something deeply unhealthy about a society where leaders are literally shut off from the communities they govern.” publicnotice.co/p/don-moynih…

In honor of Viktor Orban's visit to Washington, here's a reminder that, thanks to Orban, Hungary is corrupt, stagnant, and impoverished:

This is an excellent interview.
Trump doesn’t understand what insurance is.
🚨 BREAKING: In a huge move, President Trump calls on Senate Republicans to address the Obamacare subsidies by sending the hundreds of billions TO THE PEOPLE, NOT insurance companies.
Trump is now going to make healthcare “for the people” versus Democrats’ “big insurance.” GENIUS.
“In other words, take from the BIG, BAD Insurance Companies, give it to the people, and terminate, per Dollar spent, the worst Healthcare anywhere in the World, ObamaCare. Unrelated, we must still terminate the Filibuster!”
He KNOWS what he is doing!

There’s no actual reason for passports to even have sex markers on them, they didn’t even have them until 1976
The Supreme Court has allowed the Trump administration to block transgender and non-binary people from choosing passport sex markers that align with their gender identity.

Mamdani's win shows how DSA candidates can beat regular Democrats. It says literally nothing about how Democrats can beat Republicans. theatlantic.com/politics/202…
If Roy offered his neighbor $10,000 for his car, and Dave said, "I'd be willing to sell it for 10,500," and Roy quit his job and told everyone he can't commute because Dave wouldn't sell him his car, everyone would think Roy was insane. But that's the government shutdown.
This morning, NPR interviewed Chris Sununu, who works for the airlines, about airlines. They addressed him as “Governor.“ I cannot stress this enough: America does not have royalty or nobility. If you are not the governor, you don’t get to be called governor.
If cutting USAID really killed 150,000 kids with pneumonia, it’s not just a shame on Trump. It is a shame on every other nation in the world, including the ones where they died.
This is mass murder on a scale we haven't seen in generations. Trump did this. Musk did this. The SCOTUS that allowed these cuts to congressionally mandated programs and an acquiescent @GOP did this. It's sickening. newyorker.com/culture/the-ne…

"The investigation, which is being handled by the U.S. attorney’s office in Washington, has been underway for months, but could face significant hurdles because of the known facts of the case and recent turmoil inside the Justice Department."
