AlterNet Crooks and Liars Daily Kos (Note: these articles are from RSS News Feeds websites, and are deleted after 30 days, May 22, 2025 at 11:39 AM EDT South African President Cyril Ramaphosa was forced to endure Trump's continued attacks on his country and claims South Africa is committing genocide against White farmers to support Trump's racist actions. The South African government denies these charges and there is no actual proof of any genocide on whites, but Trump is using these claims to defend his granting refugee status to white African farmers. 'White genocide' is something American neonazis dreamed up. Stephen Miller probably planted the idea in his head. May 22, 2025 at 10:32 AM EDT Despite security and ethical concerns, the Pentagon said it has officially accepted a luxury jet plane from Qatar to serve as Trump's new Air Force One. NBC White House correspondent Peter Alexander asked Trump about that during an Oval Office meeting with South Africa's president, and in response, Donald lost his shit. One must never bring up the flying bribe. "What are you talking about?" Donald told Alexander. "You know, you need to get out of here." May 22, 2025 at 9:27 AM EDT I keep saying to people, "Why do you suppose your Medicare Advantage is free?" but many don't want to hear. This investigative piece looks at all the strategies UnitedHealth, the single largest vendor of for-profit insurance Medicare Advantage, did to cut patient care and pump up their profit margins in nursing homes. Via The Guardian: UnitedHealth Group, the nation's largest healthcare conglomerate, has secretly paid nursing homes thousands in bonuses to help slash hospital transfers for ailing residents - part of a series of cost-cutting tactics that has saved the company millions, but at times risked residents' health, a Guardian investigation has found. May 22, 2025 at 8:31 AM EDT It doesn't matter what the Senate does to mitigate the harm. Republicans are firmly attached to horrific policies, and midterms are coming. Via the New York Times: Speaker Mike Johnson and the House Republican leadership are taking a victory lap after they managed to unite enough of their fractious conference to push President Trump's domestic policy agenda forward by a single vote. Standing with leadership are the chairs of all 11 of the policy committees that wrote the bill. "They did not believe that we could succeed in our mission to enact President Trump's 'America First' agenda," Johnson told reporters at a news conference. "This is a big one, and once again, they have been proven wrong." May 21, 2025 at 7:24 PM EDT According to Wikipedia, "Paul Golding is a British political leader who has served as the leader of Britain First, a far-right British fascist and neo-fascist political party and hate group." So when Golding was at another of their anti-immigrant, anti-white hate rallies on the weekend, he just assumed a middle-aged white man watching the rally was a supporter. He was not and told Golding so, in no uncertain terms. Source: National World May 21, 2025 at 5:48 PM EDT Sen. Patty Murray's cool demeanor and pointed questions had Bob Kennedy, Jr. screaming like a fool and blaming her for not curing the health of the country thirty years ago. It was a bizarre scene. I doubt Kennedy would have become so unhinged if he had been questioned by a man. He understands if he wastes time his Republican colleague will cut off her questions. May 21, 2025 at 5:48 PM EDT Rep. Andy Barr, acting like a spoiled teenager, started a shouting match with a CNN host. Barr refused to endorse CBO scoring, which shows that the wealthy are the winners of the new Republican Medicaid cutting bill. When reality bumps into MAGA, they just yell like children and deny the facts. The CBO just reported that the Republican bill will add $3.8 trillion to the federal deficit and will redistribute wealth upwards. May 21, 2025 at 5:48 PM EDT During a House Rules committee hearing, Rep. Joe Neguse thoroughly throttled Rep Jim Jordan for using language trying to hijack the responsibility of federal courts to do their jobs and for not knowing what was written in the Republican budget bill they plan to vote for later today. Rep. Jordan had to turn to his attorney several times from the pointed questioning of Rep. Neguse because the House bill, whether intentionally or not, was so poorly written. May 21, 2025 at 5:20 PM EDT Fox News host Brian Kilmeade repeated the often-used lies that Medicaid recipients are getting free money because they're lazy and don't want to work. That is a lie. May 21, 2025 at 5:00 PM EDT Nah, Leon, this is all on you. Musk's fall from grace was a self-inflicted wound, starting when he purchased Xitter and became some sort of Edgelord for the far right because his self-worth is so minimal that he is almost damaged beyond repair. But that wasn't enough for the narcissistic dipshit billionaire, so he bought the presidency for the most incompetent, and damaged President in history, whose corruption would make Richard Nixon blush. May 21, 2025 at 11:18 AM EDT Trump pick to be head of the IRS, Billy Long, couldn't answer one simple question from Sen. Elizabeth Warren during a hearing before the Senate Finance Committee on his nomination. Long looked rattled as Warren grilled him on whether it was legal for Trump to be weaponizing the agency to go after his political enemies. Of course, we know that's exactly what he plans to do for Trump, but he didn't want to say it out loud. |
