holy shit — GOP Rep. Mike Turner tries to "help out" Hegseth by getting him to confirm that the Pentagon does not in fact have plans to take Greenland by force, but Hegseth instead more or less testifies that yep, they have devised plans for that

I asked the Interior Secretary FOUR times in the span of a minute to confirm how many park superintendents have left. No answer. Reports indicate there are nearly 100 sites across the U.S. with vacancies — and the agency’s reckless approach is creating dire consequences.

Amidst all the other shit, don't forget that these MAGA fucks are also erasing the history of this country in order to quite literally whitewash it. Check this out: censoring national parks and telling the public to whine if something makes them sad.

The National Parks are in Donald's crosshairs now. It began with logging National Forests and now extends to eliminating National Monuments. Nothing is sacred.

So…in 2011 the Justice Department confessed error to the Supreme Court that it had misrepresented the factual basis underlying the rationale presented to the Court to justify Japanese internment. As in, that is the official position of the U.S. government. Are they going to retract that, too?

New JCT analysis of the House-passed budget reconciliation bill is out.Under the GOP plan, more tax cuts go to millionaires than the entire half of America combined.This graph shows just the tax side. Include the Medicaid & SNAP cuts (which we'll get from CBO soon), & it's a cut for the poorest.
