The 10-year Treasury hit 4.63% and the 30-year Treasury hit 5.15%. 

Donald Trump seemingly had a meltdown during a press briefing at the White House on Wednesday after a "nasty" reporter asked whether he was familiar with Wall Street analysts' new term, "TACO trade," an acronym suggesting "Trump always chickens out" under tariff threats.

Rep. Mike Flood, R-Neb., faced intense questioning from people at a town hall Tuesday, at one point conceding that he did not read a provision in the House’s “Big Beautiful Bill” before he voted for it, triggering loud protests from the audience.

The town hall was held in a high school in Seward, Nebraska, and livestreamed on YouTube by News Channel Nebraska — a media network founded and owned by Flood.

Flood admitted he did not read the full bill when an audience member asked him why he had voted in favor of a provision that would make it harder for judges to enforce orders holding parties before them in contempt for defying court orders.

As for the vaccine they said they were stopping the research because the mRNA vaccines weren't tested enough...you know other than the billions of doses already given and also the testing you'd do in... research....for a new vaccine.

"The bill that passed the House Thursday would not prohibit ACA health plans from covering gender-affirming care outright, but it would restrict care by making it effectively unaffordable, said Lindsey Dawson, director for LGBTQ health policy at KFF. "

A Republican congressman admitted to his constituents that he wasn’t familiar with part of the massive tax-and-spending cut legislation he voted for last week.

At a raucous town hall meeting in Seward, Nebraska, a constituent asked Rep. Mike Flood (R-Neb.) about a part of the so-called “Big Beautiful Bill” aimed at preventing federal courts from blocking power grabs by the Trump administration.

“I am not going to hide the truth. This provision was unknown to me when I voted for that bill, and when I found out that provision was in the bill, I immediately reached out to my Senate counterparts and told them of my concern,” Flood said.

A U.S. federal court on Wednesday blocked President Donald Trump's "Liberation Day" tariffs from going into effect, ruling that the president overstepped his authority by imposing across-the-board duties on imports from nations that sell more to the United States than they buy.

And this guy thought Biden was weak.

TACO trade. Damn.

Less than two weeks until the official start of the Atlantic hurricane season, Federal Emergency Management Agency acting Administrator David Richardson has rescinded the agency's strategic plan, a comprehensive policy document that outlines the disaster relief agency's priorities.

Deysi Vargas and her 4-year-old daughter were granted temporary humanitarian permission to enter the U.S. in 2023 due to a life-threatening condition

A critically ill Mexican girl who could die within days if her treatment is paused has been ordered by the Trump administration to leave the U.S., according to her family and doctor.

Deysi Vargas’s 4-year-old daughter, named only as Sofia in a GoFundMe page, urgently required better medical care for a life-threatening condition and was granted temporary humanitarian permission to enter the U.S. from her home country of Mexico in 2023, The Los Angeles Times reports.

Sofia has short bowel syndrome, a rare condition that stops her from absorbing nutrients in food. When she was born in Playa del Carmen, Mexico, she had to be attached to feeding tubes 24 hours a day. Since moving to the U.S., her condition has significantly improved, but she still requires treatment every day.

Now the Trump administration has ordered Sofia’s deportation, leaving her at risk of death, an attorney representing the family said.

Israel genocide wouldn't be possible without US unconditional backup.

The US has delivered 90,000 tons of bombs, guns, and other military equipment to Israel since October 7, 2023, to support the genocidal war against Palestinians in the Gaza Strip, according to numbers from the Israeli Defense Ministry.

The ministry stated that the military equipment has included “armored vehicles, munitions, ammunition, personal protection gear, and medical supplies” and that the US support is “a significant component” in ensuring the Israeli military can continue the slaughter in Gaza.

People talking to themselves in echo chambers and making bold claims used to end up in mental asylums.
