Trump claims coal miners would be "unhappy" with lavish lifestyles because "they want to mine coal"
In a public appearance celebrating his new executive orders boosting coal production, Mr. Silver Spoon himself explained to the nation that the silly peasants who toil in mines are too simple to want or even enjoy anything more. "They wanna mine," he continued. "One thing I learned about the coal miners is that’s [what] they wanna do. You give them a penthouse on Fifth Avenue and a different kind of a job, and they’d be unhappy. They want to mine coal. That’s what they love to do." Yes, if there's one thing we know about coal miners, it's that they are a simple-minded monolith, preternaturally hardwired to love mining and only mining, along with all its various health hazards and physical dangers. Fate read their tempers long ago and appropriately bound them to black lung, soot, and a life spent toiling underground. And in no way have giants of industry and their enablers in government habitually preyed on economically depressed mining communities where few other opportunities for upward mobility have ever been present or made available. Leave it to a man born into obscene wealth who literally sh*ts in a gold toilet to tell generations of exploited Appalachian communities who they really are. F*ck this guy.

Trump cuts off lifeline for millions of women
United Nations Population Fund: Donald Trump cut 48 vital funding grants to the UNFPA, ending their ability to provide critical maternal health care, rape treatment, and other lifesaving care to women in over 25 crisis-stricken countries. Over the last four years, these lifesaving grants to UNFPA have prevented more than 17,000 maternal deaths, 9 million unintended pregnancies, and nearly 3 million unsafe abortions. Now that’s all been snatched away by Trump, forcing thousands of health clinics to close while countless women in crisis zones will be forced to give birth without medicines, midwives, or equipment. Will you make a donation and make sure that the world’s most vulnerable women get the healthcare they need?

Elon Musk escalates feud with Trump's tariff czar Peter Navarro and hurls ridiculously childish insults
Phony Stark, furious that Trump senior trade adviser and ex-con Peter Navarro called him a "car assembler" and anxious about how Donald's idiotic tariffs will affect the imported auto parts that his Tesla plant assembles in Texas, wrote on nüTwitter that Navarro was a "moron" and "dumber than a sack of bricks." He then called him "Peter Retarrdo." Get it? As if that wasn't childish enough, Elon also tagged the account "Retard Finder," and then publicly celebrated when the account ruled that Peter was "100% retarrded." Our government is being overrun by petulant, overgrown children who delight in petty cruelty...and are in bad need of having their mouths washed out with soap and put in permanent time out.

Detained professor Dr. Badar Khan Suri alleges shocking torture and mistreatment by ICE
Every week, we are treated to yet another shocking story of the abuse that Trump's ICE goons inflict on innocent people. Dr. Badar Khan Suri, a legal resident and a scholar of religion and peace processes at Georgetown University, was snatched off the street by ICE and thrown into their gulags, illegally detained despite agents admitting he had committed no crimes. Suri, who was born in India, was then subjected to heinous treatment by ICE; agents refused to give him food and water after breaking his Ramadan fast and kept him locked in a bedless room with a television blaring 21 hours a day, in a nod to the very American torture methods used at Guantanamo Bay. "I’ve never even been to a protest. I came to the US to work and raise my family: I go to work, come home late, and still they came and took me and broke my family," says Dr. Khan Suri. "In my work, I’ve seen lots of injustice. I just didn't think it would happen to me here." His son spent days crying uncontrollably following his father’s disappearance, and has now stopped speaking. Isn't it good to be great again?

Trump’s DOJ: Pardoned Jan. 6 rioters should get their money back for Capitol damage
Not The Onion. Not a joke. Donald Trump wants American taxpayers to REIMBURSE his rioters the restitution payments they were legally orderer to make for the $3 MILLION in damage they inflicted on the US Capitol during the MAGA cult leader's failed insurrection on Jan. 6, 2021. Damage included smashed windows and doors, vandalized offices, demolished furnishings, stolen property, urine-stained floors, and actual feces smeared on walls.

Republican accidentally refers to Trump as "President C*nt" at NRCC dinner
Minnesota Republican and future ex-House member Tom Emmer let slip a seriously Freudian oopsie daisy at the National Republican Congressional Committee’s annual gala in Washington, DC yesterday, calling the MAGA cult leader "President C*nt" before quickly correcting himself. Kinda think he got it right the first time, to be honest.

Marine veteran answers call to resist Trump
JoAnna Mendoza for Congress: JoAnna Mendoza served our country for twenty years as a drill sergeant in the United States Marines, training the brave men and women who defend our country overseas, and now she’s ready to defend our nation from Donald Trump’s extremism in the halls of Congress. As a lifelong public servant, JoAnna refuses to sit idly by while Donald Trump and Elon dismantle the systems that provide for our veterans after their service and send countless more vets to the unemployment line with their gutting of the federal government. Will you chip in to help Joanna flip this winnable red seat and take back control of Congress from the GOP?

GOP senator grills Trump trade rep on tariffs: "Whose throat do I get to choke" if you're wrong?
Uh, definitely not Donald's. The buck stops everywhere except his desk.

Keystone pipeline shut down after oil leak in rural North Dakota
Hey, remember all those massive, yearslong protests against the multi-billion-dollar Keystone XL oil pipeline? This is why. The original Keystone pipeline, built just 15 years ago, ruptured in North Dakota, spilling who knows how much crude oil in agricultural fields far away from the shiny ivory towers and sprawling, gated estates the oil executives call home. Neat, huh?

China raises retaliatory tariff on the US to 84%
This is definitely going to end well and in no way will Trump's mind-numbingly stupid trade war impact ordinary Americans' bottom lines.

Dr. Oz pushed for AI healthcare in first Medicare agency town hall
Dr. Mehmet Oz, the daytime television huckster and 21st century snake oil salesman who somehow now controls the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services and its $1.5 TRILLION budget, promoted the idea that AI avatars could replace frontline healthcare workers. What could possibly go horribly wrong having millions of Americans in their 70s and 80s receiving medical advice and complex care from AI avatars?
