I'm sorry we never got a chance to meet, but getting this note from Dolly really had a an impact on me. She definitely didn't have to take the time to do it. Even for a kid who mostly listened to rap music, she was an icon. A superstar in every sense. Rest easy Dolly. And thank you for the kind words.

DeMeco Ryans is really great in front of his team. In every video posted. All of them.

INCREDIBLE!
Washington Post journalist Hannah Natanson who had Trump’s FBI raid her home and take her phones and laptops, just won the Pulitzer Prize with the Washington Post.
Congrats!!

MAGA should never be told that a convicted pedophile and his circle of elite friends raping girls when they are 14 or 16 years old is a Democrat hoax.
And I still can’t believe I had to fight President Trump to release the Epstein files, and to this day no one has been arrested or held accountable.
This was what killed MAGA.
I don’t have Trump Derangement Syndrome, I have Trump Disappointment Syndrome.
I had never heard someone explain my perspective on #ADHD so well xitter.cf/newstart_2024/status/2…
Gabor Maté flipped the entire ADHD conversation on Joe Rogan:
He says ADHD is real, but it’s not a genetic disease like we’ve been told. It’s a coping mechanism. When a young child experiences stress (especially from parents) and can’t fight or escape, their developing brain learns to tune out. That pattern gets wired in. Years later we call it a “disorder” and reach for pills.
Maté’s take: The brain develops in relationship. Stressed, unavailable parents → stressed, distracted kids. Fix the environment and family dynamics, and the symptoms often improve dramatically.
We’ve spent decades treating ADHD as purely biological when the environment and early relationships might be playing a much bigger role than most doctors admit.
This one really made me think. I’ve seen kids (and adults) labeled with ADHD whose home life was chaotic. The idea that it could be a survival adaptation rather than just “broken wiring” feels like it explains a lot.
Do you see ADHD more as a genetic brain disease, a coping mechanism from early stress, or somewhere in between?

Theo Von: What American is this helping? What guy who is trying to take care of his family, or a single mother who's a nurse trying to get to her kid's ballgame, what regular person is this helping? That's what our President is up to, and it's fucking baffling. It feels like he has just been compromised. It's dark

BREAKING: In a stunning moment, Donald Trump just made clear the U.S. government won’t fund childcare services because we’re a big country that’s fighting wars. No wonder the American people don’t think he cares about them. Wow.

🚨 White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt today:
“Our nation was founded, almost 250 years ago, on Judeo-Christian values.”
The Treaty of Tripoli. 1797. Signed by Founding Father John Adams. Ratified unanimously by the Senate:
“The Government of the United States of America is not, in any sense, founded on the Christian religion.”
Thomas Jefferson — who wrote the Declaration of Independence — was a deist who literally cut the miracles out of his Bible.
James Madison — the father of the Constitution — explicitly warned against the “diabolical hell conceived principle of persecution” by state religion.
The First Amendment’s opening words:
“Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion.”
They put it first.

Hilarious: New Texans guard Wyatt Teller immediately put on Cowboy boots and played George Strait music after signing a multi-year deal with Houston.
Teller is going to be UNSTOPPABLE in Texas.
😭😭😭

Rep. Thomas Massie says Trump called him on the House floor after he pushed to release the Epstein files.
Trump told him three times: "I'm coming at you like you've never seen in your life."

WELKER: NBC reports that President Trump has privately shown serious interest in US boots on the ground in Iran. Is the actively being considered?
WALTZ: I'm not going to get ahead of those conversations. We have troops that are focused on seizing weapons of mass destruction if so ordered.
