Trump seems to question well-known part of Sen. Mitch McConnell's life — his childhood polio battle




President Donald Trump seemed to question a well-documented part of Sen. Mitch McConnell's life — his childhood battle with polio — after the Kentucky Republican opposed vaccine skeptic Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s confirmation Thursday as the nation's top health official. Trump attacked McConnell's mental acuity and said he had “no idea” if the senator had polio. The Oval Office barrage exposed the icy relationship between the Republican president and the former Senate GOP leader.

Fact-checking Elon Musk's claims in the Oval Office



Elon Musk has made a number of exaggerated or unevidenced claims during an Oval Office event alongside President Donald Trump.



Elon was high as a kite. He brought his kid probably to distract from that fact. Trump looked sullen and defeated. Whose idea was this?

So, When Will Musk/Trump Eliminate the Bureau of Labor Statistics?



Musk and Trump are trying to cull the herd, starting with USAID and continuing with the dismantling of our federal workers, healthcare system, consumer protection, financial systems, etc...I always felt Trump was trying to kill people during the COVID pandemic. When he suggested bleach and horse medication, I knew.

They're trying to cull the herd worldwide. Just ask the Palestinians.
