Our children shouldn’t have to wonder
if they will make it to the good hiding place
and if they do, who won’t
and if that will be enough.

Trump is withholding $1 billion in Medicaid funds from California and Minnesota.
The same man who made $2 billion off the presidency and passed $1 trillion in tax cuts for the 1% is now taking away health care from thousands of poor children.
You can’t make this up.
This dandy from the WSJ Editorial Board:
"Since Mr. Trump declassified the memo, we can quote the part he didn’t. “Vote tabulation systems would be difficult to manipulate on a wide enough scale to compromise election results,” it says. “The systems in each voting location are not connected to the Internet or to each other, and many methods for exploiting them rely on physical proximity.” Achieving it across many jurisdictions “would be difficult” and “audits and paper trails very likely would uncover such an effort."
...
"Unfortunately, the message from Mr. Trump and others has been that America’s elections can’t be trusted, and the only hope is the SAVE America Act. Aside from being untrue, this is a political backfire for the GOP. If Republican voters believe it, and the bill falls short, then why waste time going to the polls in November? Has the GOP already forgotten how Mr. Trump’s fraud outbursts cost them two Senate seats in the 2021 Georgia runoffs?"

How on earth are Americans not rioting over this?
The news here is real. It is not a fake news story.
Trump openly admits that his announcements on Truth Social about wars, tariffs, etc., manipulate the stock market. And now he's selling the ability to engage in insider trading to banks so that he and his friends can get even richer, while the average person is getting f***** over in the stock market by these super-rich a******, because they will be told when stock prices will go up and down and the average man will not.
It is corruption on a scale never seen before. Riches worth billions, if not trillions, of dollars are being stolen this way.
No Europeans would ever accept this from anyone in power. Not corruption on this astronomical scale.
But Americans are just sitting there, watching it happen without doing anything about it.
You need to wake up over there.
@PressHerald Rep. Chellie Pingree tells reporters that ICE agents weren't wearing body cameras during the shooting in Maine this morning.
They also weren't wearing cameras during the shooting of Lorenzo Salgado Araujo despite millions in $ to outfit them with cameras.
.@SenSusanCollins voted for the $70 billion Republican-backed bill to fund all this through the end of the Trump administration.
Maine, vote accordingly.
This is a BLATANT violation of the agents' Constitutional duty to render immediate, life-sustaining medical care. Just like with Renee Good, Alex Pretti, Lorenzo Araujo, and so many others, it shows the malicious intent of the ICE agents. The absolute disregard for human life.
THOMAS MASSIE: “It’s ironic that we control the House, Senate, Supreme Court, & the White House -- and we're yelling 'election fraud'? We won all the damn elections.
What are we doing with that? We’re bankrupting the country. We’re starting new wars. We’re violating the Constitution. We’re not cracking down on the fraud. The problem is not the elections. We won the damn elections. The problem is that we’re wasting the opportunity voters gave us."
What a category! What a year! I look forward congratulating these women I admire (and my pals Leslie Bibb, Merritt Wever, Betty Gilpin). Especially proud of hair, make-up, costumes, production design, director Salli and our whole family.

And to clarify, I wish they were financed! I wish these astonishing filmmakers didn’t have to fight so hard for so long to get money for their dream projects. I attach to movies because they’re good. ✌️
Carrie Coon’s post #WhiteLotus bump isn’t what you think, she reveals on THR's Drama Actress roundtable.
“As far as what' The White Lotus' does for careers, there were a lot of think pieces written about the show and the women... I still have to fight. I’m going to have to fight for big movies. What am I getting? I’m getting unfinanced indie scripts. That’s what I’m getting.” https://t.co/aSTzM7UCkt
