Elon Musk's DOGE scrapped funding screwworm research because they thought it sounded ridiculous

Oops

Today:

Iran’s military, who we’ve ‘completely obliterated’ — or left untouched — depending on the day you ask Trump, shot down an Apache helicopter over the Strait of Hormuz.

Trump said deal possible in 2-3 days.

Now Trump says we’ll attack Iran.

Incoherent nonsense.

MacFarlane: Are you concerned that the lies being espoused about California’s voting are specifically designed for November 4th, 5th, and 6th, when the House majority could rest on California’s vote count?

Aguilar: It’s pretty clear to all of us that Republicans are laying the groundwork to do anything to hold power. That’s what this is about.

[Hunter Biden @HunterBiden]

What awful thing to say to someone. While that’s not true in my case it is true for so many. Comments like this make it really difficult for people to feel that there is anywhere safe for them to share their stories. I’m sure you didn’t mean this to be cruel in that way but please try and do better. Not for me. Make fun of me all you want. But for anyone who has faced that trauma and is trying to survive out there.

BREAKING: In a stunning admission, Mike Johnson just told reporters that he has plan to cut Medicare and Medicaid after the midterms. We can stop this by making Hakeem Jeffries the next Speaker of the House.

[The Trump-Epstein Reading Room @RedactedReading]

DC, we've arrived... along with all 3.5 million pages of the publicly-released Epstein Files.

The DC Reading Room opens today.

Fox News grills Border Czar Tom Homan about his plan to shut down international travel at airports in Democrat-run cities:

"What's your goal here? To get everybody to hate you?"

For 20 years, Ohio State doctor Richard Strauss abused at least 177 male students!

Staff knew. Coaches knew. Jim Jordan (now a powerful Republican congressman) was told. He did nothing.

OSU just paid $100M to 279 survivors.

Every adult who protected him belongs in prison!

[The Washington Post @washingtonpost]

Social Security’s trust fund is now due to run low on money beginning in 2032.

The government acknowledged that the Trump administration’s immigration policies and tax cuts are expected to contribute to the insolvency. https://t.co/FpQywAm1Hv

Adam Silver looking for support as he tried to make the Trump disruption ok was awkward as hell. You can feel the fear. He has never looked smaller than he did in this moment.

VON DER LEYEN: We propose, for the first time, to ban from entry into the European Union anyone who has served in Russian armed forces since the beginning of the war.

Europe stays off-limits for anyone who has participated in the invasion of Ukraine. As simple as that.

[Joyce Alene @JoyceWhiteVance]

It’s a kleptocracy with a lot of willing sheeple sacrificing themselves so the Trumps can profit.

🦔Leonardo is a $17 billion defense contractor. It built a system called SignalTrace that clips sensors onto the license plate readers already mounted on street poles, overpasses, and police cars across the US. Every time you drive past one, the sensor grabs the Bluetooth and WiFi signals from every device in your car, ties them to your plate, and logs the time and location. Your phone, your AirPods, your kid's tablet. All of it goes into the same file. A friend rides with you once and their devices are linked to your plate.
Leonardo has sold this to police departments since at least 2023. There is no federal law covering it, no opt-out, and no warrant requirement.

My Take
None of the pieces here are new. Your phone has always broadcast a signal. The license plate cameras were already there. Leonardo just connected them and found a buyer. Nobody had to break a law or build anything from scratch. They assembled a surveillance system from parts already in place and sold it before anyone noticed.

Most people found out this week from a 404 Media investigation. Leonardo received the patent in 2024. By the time you hear about something like this, the deals are done and the sensors are on the poles. That's how it works now.

BREAKING: In a stunning moment, Republicans just BLOCKED Sen. Richard Blumenthal's attempt to get Veterans their retirement pay WITHOUT cutting disability benefits. Republicans will write blank checks to the military, then penny pinch when it's time to support our Vets.

[Governor Newsom Press Office @GovPressOffice]

Hey DOGE and NEWSMAX, can we get an update here?  

Turns out preventing a flesh-eating parasite from invading U.S. livestock wasn’t government waste…

[Spiro’s Ghost @AntiToxicPeople]

He knows he is lying, so despicable.

[Victor Shi @Victorshi2020]

Yes. Yes, You heard boos. Thunderous boos from thousands of people in Madison Square Garden. He will try to tell you those aren’t boos. But he would be lying to you. Those are massive boos for a president who spends taxpayer money on a basketball game.

[Jesse Eisinger @eisingerj]

NEW: Donald Trump Jr. invests in a co. trying to build an oil refinery in the U.S.

Then the richest man in Asia invests... in the same company.

Then... his co. gets policy concessions from the Trump Admin.

@js_kaplan & @JustinElliott:

[DonkConnects ♻️™ @donkoclock]

INSANE contrast: Obama sat courtside like the President.

Trump hid in a luxury box and still got booed like the villain.

I'm loving Pop Culture striking back. Thank you, NYC!!
