Yesterday’s Most Popular Story

Trump falsely claims Biden has ‘Stage 9’ cancer and delayed diagnosis disclosure as part of White House cognitive decline coverup.

🎭 Every Trump policy comes with its opposite. They deport legal immigrants while claiming to target criminals. They dismantle surveillance oversight after condemning it. They promise billion-dollar defense systems with no plans. They say “don’t fuck around with Medicaid” while pushing laws that gut healthcare.

It’s not chaos. It’s the familiar pattern of public theater and private demolition of democratic guardrails. Do something about it, but first call your rep and senators to tell them you do not want them to support Trump’s budget bill.
