Campaign Action Biden’s plan would quadruple federal support for the Manufacturing Extension Partnership (MEP) to boost minority-owned manufacturing and small and medium-sized businesses. It carves out 40% of the funds for climate investments for underserved communities. It also invests in the Black, brown, and AAPI workers—predominantly women—who do some of the most essential and thankless…

It’s unclear if the AWOL Saul was actually at work to receive the letter. He has a storied history of not bothering to show up at work, just one of the problems the people who work at SSA have with him. Someone, however, got the message. According to an agency spokesperson, the letter was received, because…

BuzzFeed News reports that volunteers would assist in collecting contact information for potential sponsors, who are usually parents or relatives already here. Children in HHS Office of Refugee Resettlement (ORR) custody would then be released to them. The report said that a listing states that volunteers would be tasked to “efficiently collect and provide information to ORR to enable the…

Bartiromo has been a favorite stopping point for the twice impeached guy while also promoting a steady stream of misinformation. She has done so effectively enough that she has slowly moved up the ladder as the longtime hosts are pushed into retirement. Bartiromo has also made sure to push every unscientific, terrible public health idea, like going out into public and…

There’s a good reason that the video of events from that day begins with a warning. Because the level of violence displayed is just part of what makes these clips disturbing. The video shows officers being punched, beaten with objects, doused with bear spray, and being literally crushed by a crowd working together to grind…

Going into the pandemic, Florida had a system that mirrored that of many states. At the county level, medical examiners tallied both the numbers and the cause of death. This information was both made available to the public and sent to the state. By no coincidence at all, one of DeSantis’ first moves during the pandemic…

McCarthy is attempting to convince that crowd that trying to jam every piece of legislation with a lengthy series of useless procedural votes might not prove to be the best optics for GOP opposition to Democrats. In response, one Freedom Caucus crank recently lit into McCarthy behind closed doors, according to Politico. Rep. Andy Biggs…

It may be difficult to remember at this point, but four short years ago, Fox News actually had a substantial news content. Yes, it was forced into nooks and crannies during couch time for racists and friends, and it was squeezed into the hours before folks like Bill O’Reilly laid out their personal pet peeves…

New Mexico! Missouri! Alabama! California! Arizona! C’mon Arizona, what the hell?!?!?!?! I’m excited to see Arizona Daily Star’s coverage of daily costs of war and the hourly costs of medical bills due to COVID-19 illness and death, and the minute by minute breakdown of projected mental health costs over the next decade due to the…

During the Democratic primary, Biden talked a big “bipartisan” game, echoing many of the same bromides we heard from Obama about “reaching out across the aisle” and other such nonsense. It really did seem as though he was setting up “Obama, the sequel.” Yet that’s not what we’ve seen, not even for a second. When…
