We are bombing Iran to drive out their authoritarian government that cruelly suppresses the democratic will of its people. And if they won't surrender, we're going to cancel the midterms.

I liked the Epstein scandal when I thought it would hurt Democrats. Now that it's hurting Trump, it's time to stop talking about it.

Doctors say that vaccines protect children from dangerous diseases. A nepo baby who barbecues dogs and snorts cocaine off toilet seats says that vaccines make children vulnerable to 5G radiation. For busy parents, it can be hard to know who to trust.
