The public deserves competent health leadership. Instead, key federal health posts are vacant, and the ones that are filled include RFK Jr. Dr. Oz, a penile-implant specialist in the infectious disease chain of command and a non-scientist acting FDA commissioner. This is a crisis of competence.
Judge Crenshaw told DOJ and DHS officials: stop talking about Abrego Garcia in public in ways that could poison the jury pool. Patel is a DOJ official. Calling Abrego a “convicted gang-banging rapist” looks exactly like the kind of public attack the judge warned them not to make. zurl.co/fThpi
Patel’s performance was not just combative. It was evasive on a core accountability question. If Patel cannot plainly acknowledge that false statements to Congress are criminal, Van Hollen has exposed a much bigger problem than one ugly hearing exchange.

Trump does not simply like dictators. He likes the performance of unchecked authority. He admires leaders who appear immune to accountability, who command choreographed displays of loyalty, and who don’t have to bargain with legislatures, courts, journalists, protesters, or voters.

Aipac has to go. We send Billions to Isreal, we're the richest country in the world but no free Healthcare when Isreal has free Healthcare.. Greed. Tax the 938 people who hold $8 trillion in wealth 20% and they're still billionaires. The working Americans pay 29% average in federal tax.

In a powerful address to President von der Leyen, Valérie Hayer, leader of the European Parliament party Renew Europe, urged decisive action: a more united, sovereign, federal Europe capable of protecting its citizens. She stressed that only an institutional “big bang” can meet today’s challenges.
