KRISTI NOEM: We've worked so much with El Salvador ... Costa Rica has been fantastic
(El Salvador and Costa Rica, dear reader, are not in South America)
House Republicans advanced a funding bill that would cut fruit and vegetable support for millions of pregnant women, postpartum parents, infants, and young children.
This is so messed up.
WIC is one of the most important parts of our national safety net. It's a program for pregnant, breastfeeding, postpartum women and children under five, providing healthy foods, nutrition education, breastfeeding support, and referrals.
It helps low-income families afford healthy food during pregnancy and early childhood, which is when good nutrition is most essential.
The estimated cut is almost $150 million to fruit-and-vegetable vouchers. This is warfare against toddlers, preschoolers, pregnant women, and postpartum parents enrolled in the program.
The bottom line: The federal judges have ruled more than 13,300 times — the overwhelming majority of the 15,100 rulings — that ICE had detained people in violation of the law or their due process rights.

The bullshit biolabs conspiracy is back at the exact same time Candice Owen’s and Andrew Tate arrive in Moscow.
This is a coordinated disinformation damaging against Ukraine by the Kremlin.
Don’t fall for it
The "Trump Kennedy Center" apparently repeatedly ignored the terms of a contract with the Washington National Opera, locked the WNO out from viewing their own financial records, and is now refusing to return$17 million of their own money — and even already spent some of it!

Commercial advertising, product placements, and corporate-sponsored promotions are explicitly prohibited on national parklands. The White House lawn is a unit of the National Park System. It also violates standard Anti-Vending and Solicitation Laws as well as misuse of public funds and government endorsement ethics. Everything this administration does spits in the face of our laws. Everything is a grift.
Trump is now 34 points underwater in his approval on the economy, according to an Economist/YouGov poll out this week.
Just 29% approve of his handling of the economy, while 63% disapprove.
At his lowest point, Joe Biden's economic approval never fell below 39%, according to Economist/YouGov.
🚨BREAKING: Donald Trump said he will nominate Jay Clayton, the top federal prosecutor in Manhattan, to be the next director of national intelligence just days after the attorney endorsed false conspiracy theories about California’s primary vote count. https://t.co/C6DP4mP3Wh
The Trump administration is quietly moving to change the Affordable Care Act to let health insurers offer people loans to pay for their care.
Deep in a document over 1,000 pages long about how the Affordable Care Act market will operate next year, the administration suggests that insurers consider offering loans to cash-strapped customers.
Under this approach, people who develop a costly disease or need unexpected emergency care would turn to their health insurer for loans.
A third of American households already have medical debt, and this approach would mean even more debt that patients owe to their health insurance companies.
The insurers, who already make billions, would stand to make even more.
