🚨NEWS: Scientists Were Handcuffed At A Medical Conference.

Researchers and physicians attending the American Diabetes Association conference in New Orleans were reportedly detained and removed while distributing a paper criticizing cuts to federal research funding.

Think about that for a second.

Scientists were not accused of sabotaging research.

They were sharing research.

If the reports are accurate, the question isn’t whether you agree with their conclusions.

It’s why distributing a scientific paper resulted in handcuffs.

🚨 REPORT: Trump's USAID cuts have caused over 330,000 deaths, including 224,000 children.

Experts project up to 14 million deaths by 2030.

Welcome to America’s new nuclear family: three marriages, multiple affairs, got wife #3 pregnant while still married to wife #2, and paid $50,000 to settle a sexual assault.

EVERY SINGLE Maga moron told you Trump was going to drain the swamp, & end insider trading.

Now he's America's biggest insider trader in history, & is freeing the swamp.

If you still listen to Republicans you're dumb with a b.

Trump held an agriculture roundtable meeting with farmers in Wisconsin yesterday.

The purpose was to raise the morale of farmers with new promises he will break as usual.

This is what Trump told them.

"I don't need this. I got elected. What the hell do I have to be here for?"

Well, if farmers haven't given up on him yet that statement should have given them a wake-up call.

How about that moment from Miz?!

He yells at Murph to let him stay in the game with men on the corners and the top of the order for a fourth time.

He responds with back-to-back strikeouts to complete seven without an earned run.

Misiorowski just pulled a Mussina!

266,000 jobs under Biden:
“slowed”
“muddled expectations”
“fell short”

172,000 jobs under trump:
“upswing”
“vigorous”
“strong sign for economy”

This is the double standard Dems have had to deal with for the past 10 years.

Nick Saban raised a fair concern about NIL, the transfer portal, and what college sports are becoming.
But here’s the question:

When coaches maximized their value, it was called business.

When players maximize theirs, it’s called a problem.

Where should the line be? Curious where you stand…

This is so insanely corrupt, I can’t even believe it.

More than half the donors to Trump’s $400 million White House ballroom just won over $50 billion in new federal contracts in six months.

And here’s the part that should make your blood boil.

Sixteen of these 27 donors were facing federal enforcement actions, antitrust reviews, labor cases, securities charges. Many of those cases have been quietly dropped or scaled back since Trump took office. You write a check, your legal problems disappear. That’s not a coincidence.

The White House won’t even release the full donor list. They’re hiding it on purpose, because daylight is the one thing pay-to-play can’t survive. A federal judge already ruled ballroom construction has to stop until Congress authorizes it.

Government is supposed to serve the people, not auction itself off to the highest bidder. When access goes to whoever pays the most, working families always end up paying the price.

We either end the corruption, or the corruption will end us.

"We have a vaccine that prevents shingles, a vaccine that markedly lowers the risk of dementia, and a vaccine that might even slow aging itself. Conveniently, these three vaccines are actually just one: the shingles vaccine. But fewer than half of eligible Americans have received the vaccine." https://t.co/VKyZMDHJdj

Do you get it yet?

All the billionaires have private islands, compounds, bunkers and escape plans.

Do you really think they intend to stay here and live with the consequences of the policies they are supporting for another country?

Do you think they’ll be the ones struggling with medical bills, inflation, or sending their children off to war?

The people with the most power have the easiest exits once America is entirely gutted.

NEW: Public Employees for Environmental Responsibility statement on Trump's repainting of the Lincoln Memorial reflecting pool

"Different sections of the Pool floor display visibly different shades of blue.

The patchy paint job has some parts of the pool appear American Flag Blue, but others show different shades of blue or even gray, depending on how the light hits them

The ends of the Reflecting Pool have not yet been painted at all, and are still their gray cement color, coated with unsightly tarps

Most significantly, the central problem with the Reflecting Pool – water leakage – has not been
addressed at all"

[WTFGOP @doggintrump]

So they’re about to jump ship and hide out on their own private island with all the money that Trump has stolen from us while he’s president because they know if they stay in the United States they will be prosecuted like everyone else in their orbit
