They have no shame.
“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.”

Being in your 50s is confusing. On paper, I’m 55. At a concert, I’m 24. After 8/9 PM, I’m 88. Getting up off the floor makes me 115. But when the'80s music starts playing, I’m 17 all over again.

Surely just a coincidence…🤔
Sen. Susan Collins helped steer millions in federal defense contracts to Navatek, whose CEO illegally funneled thousands of dollars to her campaign.

The FBI sought to launch a probe and was eyeing Collins and other lawmakers.

Then Trump gutted the unit in charge. THREAD 🧵

Between this, subsidizing Israeli weapons, replenishing military stockpiles, and boosting fuel costs, this unnecessary war will match the $54B in USAID cuts. We could save millions more lives and solve social problems, but we’re wreaking havoc and widening massive disparities. Tragic.
The Pentagon spent some $38 billion in its first few months of the war with Iran and will need at least five years to replace the missile interceptors it expended trying to defend U.S. troops and bases, according to a nonpartisan congressional watchdog. https://on.wsj.com/4xY58bC
Congressional Watchdog Puts War Costs at $38 Billion, Estimates 5 Years to Replace Interceptors
A nonpartisan congressional watchdog estimates the war with Iran is likely to cost an additional $2 billion to $3 billion a month.

As millions of kids lose SNAP food benefits, free school meals are also at risk
Food stamps have a direct link to other critical resources, such as free breakfast and lunch at school. Now, experts say they're starting to see that link break.

I interviewed the lawyer representing the USPS whistleblower on Sidebar Tuesday night and here’s some of what he had to share:
Kligerman: The administration wants to argue, “We’re not building it for this election.” Well, why are you rushing it? Why are there people, like our whistleblower, who have come forward to say, no, they’re rushing to get it done precisely to have it ready for this election?

Shortly after taking office last year, Pete Hegseth polled the nation's top commanders about cutting a program designed to protect civilians during U.S. military operations.

Every commander rebuffed the idea.

He did it anyway.
