This is partly a story of personal corruption and government waste but the driving force is consistent with RFK Jr's policy objectives: he is a eugenicist who wants certain groups of people to die.
“The Department of Health and Human Services informed congressional appropriators earlier this year that it was moving about $12 million from its Office of Minority Health to help cover the ballooning cost of security for Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.”

I'm deleting most fundraising texts these days, but if you sent me one saying you had identified these consultants and promised never to work with them, I would give you the max
I want the name of every consultant who convinces a Democrat to run an ad ceding ground to trans hatred, and I want them blacklisted by the party and noted so I can never give a cent to anyone who hires them ever again.

it is because they want to impoverish the country! they don’t want high end manufacturing. they want americans working subsistence wages making t shirts and clothes hangers
This is part of what’s so insane. As they talk about re-shoring and manufacturing they are actively trying to destroy an entire us manufacturing industry that already exists.
Billions of dollars in clean energy projects have been canceled since Donald Trump took office again — leaving thousands of jobs and the shift to clean energy in doubt.

I'm just going to take the lesson here as you should never screw over public transit users. Good riddance Dan McKee
Foulkes winning every city and town in Rhode Island, including McKee's hometown of Cumberland
The silver lining for McKee, his 25 point defeat stays short of the 29-point loss suffered by Bruce Sundlun in 1994

It will take a hell of a lot for me to ever forgive the people who did this, as well as those who cheer them on.
The end of TPS was only finalized a few days ago and it is only now starting to break as they are losing their jobs and being detained and feeling the heft of this wholly fucking evitable human tragedy that some of the worst people on the planet have brought upon them

BREAKING: The New Mexico Department of Justice has sued Acting AG Todd Blanche and the DOJ, requesting the court for access to unredacted Epstein-related investigative files that the DOJ has been withholding.

on the right, "bravery" is when you're willing to be criticized by liberals, even if the position you're taking is fully embraced by the federal government and half the states.
Speaking for the first time since ralliers began assembling in support of her stance against transgender participation in women’s sports, Indiana Fever guard Sophie Cunningham said this was an opportunity for the WNBA to uphold its values of diversity and inclusion.

Cops hate cities, hate the people living inside of them and are much more empathetic to someone trying to race through the city to enter and leave as quickly as possible than they are to like, a cyclist or pedestrian, who represent a class of people (city residents) the cop wished stopped existing
I have seen this in so many places, I have no idea why police no longer care about enforcing traffic laws, it's bizarre! They're driving more than anyone! They have kids! Yet they don't care. Like do they get paid more dealing with crashes, the bloody the better?
I've seen more people just straight-up run red lights in San Diego since Covid than I had in my entire life up to that point. There's essentially zero traffic enforcement in Southern California.

Bluesky knew the strait of Hormuz, Graham Platner, and AIPAC democrats were all cooked months before the experts did.
Meanwhile Twitter was convinced Spencer Pratt would win and the Odyssey would bomb.
Which site is the not-real-life echo chamber again?

extremely funny to me that analysts whose entire job is to think about these possibilities are only now catching up to Bluesky Consensus
RAPIDAN: We “no longer assume a near-term return to freedom of navigation through the Strait of Hormuz. Instead, we expect ongoing military risks to constrain vessel transits .. well into next year ..” 👀

Man, the idea that people are paying lying fascist scumbag Chris Rufo $50K to give a speech is actually really depressing. Like, I know the world works like this, but that fact still hit me like a punch to the gut
Psst those intellectual diversity centers are just one more rightwing grift

Yersinia? OK, I guess we're gonna make plague great again. Like, the actual Black Death. For reasons that I don't think are fully understood, it's largely disappeared, but it's not eradicated, so probably worth keeping a close watch on. Or we could build Trump a $1B ballroom, I guess
CDC is no longer surveilling outbreaks caused by campylobacter, cyclospora, listeria, shigella, vibrio and Yersinia. What could go wrong?
The CDC quietly scaled back a surveillance program for foodborne illnesses.
As of July 1, a critical surveillance program is monitoring for only two pathogens instead of the usual eight.

For some dumb masochistic reason, I'm reading Facebook comments about a cyclist killed by traffic violence recently, and dear God, I want to take away so many people's drivers licenses. Driving is a privilege that should be reserved for people that don't exhibit depraved indifference to human life
