Robert Reich is right. The move toward authoritarianism is not just Trump suing and intimidating mainstream media. It is the growing concentration of ownership in what we see, hear and read.

Were you lying when you talked to Mike Rounds and other senators, or are you lying now? Either way, you are a liar, unfit for any office or position of public trust. And a traitor to your own espoused values and record.
The peace proposal was authored by the U.S. It is offered as a strong framework for ongoing negotiations It is based on input from the Russian side. But it is also based on previous and ongoing input from Ukraine.

Donald Trump should honor Charlie Kirk by ‘immediately moving to unseal all the Epstein files’.
Charlie Kirk: "The DOJ should immediately move to unseal all the Epstein...Every file should be released to the public." Megyn Kelly: "Put them all out there. Because if there's nothing in there, then we can see there's nothing in there." https://t.co/O60Jg36Bxq

We've gone through a full year of @POTUS's theatrics, just to arrive back where he started: Demanding Ukraine's surrender. Rewarding Putin for its unlawful aggression. This sellout is hardly Nobel-worthy. He who pushes it just won't have the cards.

The U.S. is sending “signals” that everything could be off the table if Kyiv does not quickly sign a proposal, which was drawn up by special envoy Steve Witkoff.

Sure, let’s trust the guy who oversaw one of the biggest healthcare frauds in history. Republicans keep coming up with new ways for people to get worse health care coverage. It’s no wonder Americans don’t trust Republicans on health care.

I’m a doctor who has seen people die from vaccine-preventable diseases. What parents need to hear right now is vaccines for measles, polio, hepatitis B and other childhood diseases are safe and effective and will not cause autism. Any statement to the contrary is wrong,

It's important to separate out rhetoric from science, and the research on vaccines is clear. They don't cause autism. That doesn't mean they don't carry some risks or that some people won't have side effects but overall their benefits far outweigh their risks.
For more than two decades, scientists have studied whether vaccines cause autism. The answer has been consistent: there’s no evidence they do. I compiled a list of 14 studies, covering more than 10 million children, that find no link between vaccines and autism. Vaccines save
