This lady really had no idea whose house she was at 😂 as she then proceeds to talk about how she got banned on Facebook for posting about ivermectin and then it all made sense. Anywho.

A terrible outcome from RFK and others promoting vaccine skepticism.

@ICHawkeye This funding is just government handouts to farmers not actually for anything to help with clean water. They don’t like regulations remember.

"Trump is circumventing Congress’s power of the purse. He’s circumventing the judiciary’s role in adjudicating disputes. By potentially granting settlements to people who possess no valid legal claim, he’s circumventing civil and criminal law. This is one of the most purely monarchical moments of a monarchical presidency." https://t.co/od2xnlANux

To slightly adapt Orwell: The Supreme Court told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was its final, most essential command.

Hundreds of billions more in waste and fraud—at taxpayer expense.

Remember when this administration pretended it was going to bring down the national debt?

[Jay Nordlinger @jaynordlinger]

I don't think a U.S. president ought to cite a murderous, totalitarian, anti-American dictator against his predecessor. This is another thing that makes me a dinosaur.

@tdorman @JDScholten As a local business traveler these expenses are the norm. Nothing I would get flagged for in any business

"Carry on, patriots." The blatant politicization of the U.S. military will have bad, bad effects in the future. Our norms, our mores, our way of life -- people'll miss all that when it's gone. But they can't know it now, I fear.

[Bill Kristol @BillKristol]

I assume that tonight Trump will head for the exits in Iran. He may try to disguise the retreat by announcing the U.S. is leaving NATO, which Trump will present as a liberation from ungrateful allies and a victory for America First.

So he'll make a bad outcome far worse.

This guy is not qualified to run anything. He has no idea how good his genetics are and how bad he almost completely ruined them.

.@EDSecMcMahon and I announced that, starting this fall, 53 medical schools across 31 states will deliver at least 40 hours of nutrition education during undergraduate medical training.

This landmark reform will transform medical education, equip future physicians to prevent and treat chronic disease, and advance @POTUS’s commitment to end the chronic disease epidemic.

"Trump was animated when describing the bloodied and mangled bodies. This obsession...is a hallmark of right-wing politics in America...America's descent into lawless, violent government is at least a little bit a story of psychosexual unmooring."

russia providing iran with targeting assistance against the us military.

us reducing sanctions on russian oil export.

Just remember that it took 3.5 trillion dollars and 20 years to replace the Taliban with the Taliban. Let that sink in.. https://t.co/EXX9hVa85g

@ChuckGrassley Then make them accountable

[Jay Nordlinger @jaynordlinger]

Trump & Co. never miss a chance to insult Zelensky -- who is leading a country trying to save itself from annihilation (by an enemy of the U.S.). "P.T. Barnum," Trump calls him (like he should talk). Tell me, Republicans: What is our president's insulting nickname for Putin?

[David French @DavidAFrench]

We'll be untangling the webs of corruption from this administration for years.
