Of course he did

The study is transgenic mice (altered DNA) - not transgender - which were used to study cancer, asthma, & other health risks.

These people must've searched for "trans" and not bothered to read the actual studies.

Wait until they learn about the "transcontinental railroad."

@JasonDKim3 I loved that one. The quarter pounder deluxe they have now is pretty similar.

@Carolyn39085233 @HQNewsNow @ReverendWarnock Not just that. He thinks it's all funny and a joke. He has absolutely no concept of suffering and zero empathy. They're making their millions so to hell with everyone else.

This is truly one of the worst things the court has done — both in terms of legitimacy and in terms of the law — since I have been covering the court.

Republican Congressman Tom Kean Jr. just became the GOP nominee for New Jersey's 7th district, despite the fact that he has been missing for 3 months according to his staff:

"There are no cameras where Tom is."

New reports reveal GOP Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp sold 3 lakefront properties shortly after he became governor.

The properties had been listed for over a decade, and the people who bought the properties were later given valuable government contracts and appointed to high-ranking positions.

Exclusive: A convicted Jan. 6 rioter who later said that he regretted his participation in the U.S. Capitol attack has been hired by the Trump administration to work inside a Pentagon office that manages highly classified military operations. https://t.co/3OtllgCSWP

This is Daisy and Luna. Daisy doesn’t like car rides so Luna comforts her until they both fall asleep. Extremely heartwarming. 13/10 for both

@amelia_tweetz Why did you copy this, word for word, from a post on Bluesky from Sunday? At least try to modify it as your own.

[Patrick Skinner @SkinnerPm]

Our national suicide. We are killing our country because we are so angry and dumb, and proud to be both. We don’t make it back from this if we keep digging this hole.

[Ned Price @nedprice]

The biggest news isn't that Trump is appointing someone without a national security background to a position that, by law, requires "extensive" experience. It's that Pulte earned Trump's trust by using **mortgage** records to pursue perceived political enemies. Now this top henchman will have access to some of our most sensitive intelligence and exquisite capabilities. That's why this is so noteworthy -- and concerning.

[Kyle Griffin @kylegriffin1]

BREAKING:

Trump just appointed Bill Pulte, the man who tried to take down Letitia James and Lisa Cook with bogus mortgage fraud claims, to be acting Director of National Intelligence.

[Jake Tapper 🦅 @jaketapper]

“HE WILL NEVER LET YOU DOWN” the president says about a congressman who hasn’t been seen publicly in nearly three months, hasn’t voted since March 5, and has yet to tell his constituents where he is.

One factor in the recent homicide decline was the Biden admin's clampdown on gun trafficking. Now, the Trump admin's pulling back on several fronts, raising odds that the flow of illegal guns will rise, w/ ill effects down the line. My latest @propublica: https://t.co/7Ys5khFOWV

[Brian Allen @allenanalysis]

🚨 WOW.

Trump’s financial disclosure forms reportedly show he bought between $1 MILLION and $5 MILLION in Dell stock earlier this year.

Then THIS WEEK…

the Pentagon awarded Dell a contract worth MORE THAN $9 BILLION.

Read that again slowly.

[ProPublica @propublica]

New: Trump repealed Biden’s zero-tolerance policy for gun dealers who willfully violated the law, invited revoked dealers to reapply and shifted hundreds of ATF agents to immigration work, while ATF referred fewer gun-trafficking charges to prosecutors. https://t.co/qPC4ujR6ba
