I don't understand the theory behind this obviously absurd argument. So people are paying premiums and not using the services and they're fraudsters?

Assistant AG for Fraud Colin McDonald: "Apparently 35% of people have never even used their Obamacare account for any health services. That is a statistical impossibility and it's because these are not real people seeking real care. These are fraudsters."

Exclusive: President Trump's approval rating fell to 32% — the lowest of his political career — as fellow Republicans soured on his handling of the cost of living amid the unpopular Iran war, a new Reuters/Ipsos poll found reut.rs/3T10ZES

A significant crowd is outside the Kennedy Center for a “Hands Off the Arts” protest, as the nation’s memorial to former President John F. Kennedy remains closed. Just today, another dozen Kennedy Center employees were laid off.

The impact of the alternate reality bubbles which are fully entrenched on the right, even among those whose job it is to evaluate things from all sides, are not good!

Genuinely an insane paragraph from Sam Alito. “Voter fraud is real and scary and we have to stop it, so the fact that implementing Trump’s mail ballot rule will disenfranchise millions is legally irrelevant.” Brain melted. A right-wing podcaster in a robe. www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/25p...

Trump Jr.’s spokesperson says Putin-linked oligarch Umar Kremlev is “a personal friend.” A private island wedding, $70K in fireworks, and a little planning help from the friend group. Nothing says family values like Russia picking up the tab.

Cameron Brink of the Los Angeles Sparks: “I think when it comes to the trans issues…I think it’s a non issue & I think it’s people trying to just come for the trans community & I just don’t stand for that…I don’t even know what the fuck his name is, Enes Kanter, like he’s a stupid piece of shit.”

Across multiple states, black people have been found hanging in separate incidents in 2026. The pattern is deeply disturbing. The public deserves more than quick conclusions. We need thorough investigations, complete autopsies, preserved evidence and full transparency. #Pinks

Lesson to the men who are considering seeking public office: If you have a history of sexually assaulting women, your chances of winning are better if you run as a Republican. In fact, you could become president!

This is it exactly. Friends of mine who defend Israel no matter what it does can and will never understand that a big factor in the rise in antisemitism that we're seeing is because of the government and military of Israel's awful murderous behavior. And I'm a Jew who has lived in Israel.

WATCH: Asked by CNN about Israel endangering 🇺🇸 Jews, Netanyahu accuses Haley Stevens — a staunch defender of Israel — of “excusing antisemitism” Even Dana Bash isn’t having the gaslighting

By twisting FIFA's arm, he's put an asterisk on a US win. Peak Trump. #ETTD

Silly me for thinking nobody could out-corrupt FIFA’s Sepp Blatter, but Gianni Infantino really said, “Hold my beer.” Peak corruption.

“I will be one of the Jewish members of Congress most willing to stand up for Palestinian human rights. And I will stand firmly against bigotry aimed at Jews. Those are not two different jobs. They are the same job,” Brad Lander said.

TRUMP THEN: If you had a knife, you can't even cut the Reflecting Pool. TRUMP NOW: We have vandalism… I think 290, 300 foot slit right through, and probably a box cutter, or a knife of some kind.

I want to laugh at the joke Michelle Obama made about the peace prize, but fuck...I fear that an Obama taking a globally-noticed and appreciated dig at something Trump actually cares about only leads to him acting...very badly. See: WHCA Dinner...

WHOA. At least three passenger jets appear to have had rejected landings/go-rounds in ~30 minutes while that UFC light show was going a mile away. @aaronparnas.bsky.social previously reported a commercial pilot filed an FAA safety report about being “nearly blinded” by a test run of the lights.

MacFarlane: A commercial airline pilot near Reagan National Airport earlier this week reported a safety concern—or safety incident—from a lighting display potentially connected to the UFC construction site on the White House South Lawn.

NEW: California created more jobs than any other state between the first quarters of 2025 and 2026. We're not just the engine of the American economy, we're bucking the national slowdown in job creation that's happened since Trump returned to office.
