A physician who appeared on MS NOW Sunday morning pushed back on Donald Trump's early morning boast about acing a cognitive screening test, warning that the frequency with which Trump appears to be taking the exam raises questions rather than answering them — because the test is typically administered when doctors are already concerned about something.Dr. Vin Gupta was responding to Trump's 12:35 a.m. Truth Social post in which the president claimed to have scored a perfect 30 out of 30 on the Montreal Cognitive Assessment, calling it an "approved high difficulty cognitive test" that no other president has taken and describing the result as evidence of "extreme intelligence."Gupta was not impressed. "This is a screening tool, at a very high level, for early signs of cognitive decline or dementia," he said. "It is not something that assesses the ability to do the world's hardest job under pressure — executive functioning. It is not that tool. It's not a neuropsychiatric test."He also questioned Trump's characterization of the exam as difficult. "I don't think a lot of people find it to be terribly difficult, as he describes it."But Gupta's sharpest point came when the anchor asked who typically initiates the test — the patient or the doctor."Traditionally, it is the latter," Gupta said. "It's something that if we're getting it frequently, say every four to six weeks, like it seems like they're doing, that is something that is used to surveil an underlying condition in typical scenarios. In this case, this is not a test you routinely would otherwise do with this type of frequency."Gupta also raised broader concerns about transparency surrounding Trump's physical, which was released late on a Friday night and included what he called "overly editorialized language" — including references to an AI tool assessing Trump's cardiac age and an explanation attributing bruising on both of Trump's hands to handshaking. "This is not professional medical language that you use to describe somebody's physical condition," he said.
If a former judge can go on a left-wing network and casually call Trump’s administration unlawful, Americans have every reason to question how nonpartisan the judiciary really is.

World Food Program (WFP) Executive Director Cindy McCain pressed the Trump administration for more food aid, saying her organization needs “help.” “When you look at the places you operate, do you think there has been an impact from the dismantling of [the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID)]?” CBS News’s Margaret Brennan asked McCain on…

President Donald Trump’s “pursuit of retribution” has led to the ousting of several GOP lawmakers he’d perceived as inefficiently loyal, but in doing so, may very well have doomed his future nominees for the remainder of his term, health care reporter Joseph Choi argued Sunday in an analysis published in The Hill.Earlier this month, Sen. Bill Cassidy (R-LA) was defeated in his GOP primary race by his Trump-backed challenger, Rep. Julia Letlow (R-LA). Cassidy was among the few Republican lawmakers to vote to convict the president for his role in the Jan. 6 Capitol riot, and would go on to call for Trump to drop out of the 2024 race.And, while Trump may have succeeded in helping oust Cassidy, the Louisiana Republican still maintains his position as chair of the influential Senate Health Committee, a position with the power to derail any of Trump's health agency nominees.“The next few months could determine whether [Cassidy’s] legacy is restraining the Trump administration’s more extreme elements or ultimately ushering them in,” Choi wrote.“In the coming months, Cassidy will play a major role in elevating the next round of federal health leaders, presiding over the nominations of former Deputy Surgeon General Erica Schwartz to be the next director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, Nicole Saphier to be next U.S. surgeon general and whomever the administration picks to replace former Food and Drug Administration Commissioner Marty Makary.”Cassidy ended up being the deciding vote in confirming Health and Human Services (HHS) Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., whom he was initially skeptical of but convinced to confirm after receiving assurances that the HHS would adhere to vaccine safety guidelines.Now, with “nothing to lose,” noted Joseph Antos, senior health policy fellow emeritus at the American Enterprise Institute, speaking with The Hill, Cassidy could prove a problem for Trump’s health nominees going forward.

MAGA is in full implosion mode thanks to a single not safe for work tweet sent out from the official Democrats Twitter account on Wednesday. Yes, the same bully cult that prides itself on trolling liberal accounts all day, every day on every possible social media platform, is clutching their collective pearls over a five-word tweet clapping back at Kapo Nosferatu Stephen Miller. We don’t have enough time or internet space to delve into everything that’s terrible about Miller, but as an American Jew (who’s also a staunch atheist), I can tell you that no one in the Tribe claims such a glaring example of Jewish self-hatred. The guy who separated breastfeeding infants from their mothers at the border (presumably to drink their blood, although I can’t confirm that), describes human beings as “illegals,” and tweets hateful propaganda about all minorites got his vampiric snowflake feelings hurt over the kind of reply liberals usually get from MAGA trolls. Stephen Miller's X account. I realize that’s not the height of political discourse, but it’s just perfect. Short, succinct, and hits MAGA right where they live. I have live replies right now from MAGA trolls that are far worse than that, and it doesn’t even matter when you’re reading this. Because they’ll always be the worst part of social media as long as their cult exists. Liberals immediately began sharing screenshots of the “shut up you ugly f--k” reply to use as evergreen responses to MAGA’s weaker meme game. MAGA snowflakes started with their usual manufactured outrage because their entire default setting is one big perceived slight. Things escalated rapidly thanks to Nosferatu’s wife, Katie, who decided to take it further by revealing the tweet was written by Paulina Mangubat, the DNC’s Deputy Chief Mobilization Officer. Maybe it was just her pregnancy hormones getting the best of her, because Katie is currently carrying their fourth unholy spawn, but she went full MAGA Mean Girl on Paulina.“She’s 30, unmarried with no kids. Put your name on it next time. This is what a sad, unhappy, female Liberal looks like,” KKKatie tweeted, along with a photo of Mangubat. “It’s why Pew reports 50% of them have been diagnosed with a mental condition.”We haven’t been, btw. Single liberal women are pretty happy not to be stuck with an ancient traitorous succubus hanging upside-down all night above our beds, for example. I often find myself hoping that the Millers have designated actually decent people as godparents for their kids, because once both of them are in prison forever, someone needs to make sure those kids unlearn any hate they’ve been carefully taught.Anyway, Paulina has plenty of support online from her co-workers, who understand exactly how effective her tweet was.Paulina also went on the Meidas Touch podcast and was basically all, “I said what I said.”I love her SO MUCH. This is the non-apologetic energy we need to be seeing from Democrats until November. We have only good things to promote about our candidates, while MAGA continues to align behind the worst traitors this country has ever produced.Gone are the days of “When they go low, we go high,” my friends. Democrats are all too often accused of not fighting hard enough, but we’ve seen enough “Nerds vs Bullies” movies to know that we’ve hit the moment in the third act when we build a clubhouse during a montage that’s set to “New Song” by Howard Jones and start doing some serious PT to get ready for the final battle.What first started with Gavin Newsom’s digi team co-opting Trump’s posting style to mock him has now become a full-on campaign tactic for the Democratic Party. Using MAGA’s methods, as well as their own words, is such an incredibly effective tactic. All it took was a little creative use of AI, and boom, MAGA Snowflakes falling everywhere.You know MAGA is worried about the midterms just from the way they’re attacking James Talarico, who’s running for Senate in Texas. Aside from falsely framing him as a vegan in the meat-loving Lone Star State, Stephen Miller’s tweet suggesting Talarico is transgender is full-on defamation. Talarico’s opponent, sex offender Ken Paxton, actually called the devout Christian “Talafreako,” because projection language goes hand-in-hand with their bullying.So what did Talarico’s team do? They took a note from “Dark Brandon” and co-opted his bully’s words to start a trend instead.You can now purchase “Talafreako” t-shirts on his official campaign website. BRILLIANT! I’d wear that and I spent plenty of time tweeting my support of Jasmine Crockett over James Talarico, because I understand the importance of boosting ALL Democratic candidates in ALL states.And I also understand the importance of never letting up on MAGA. We know how to hit them in the feels, and that’s where we need to keep hitting them. Mocking their defense of Trump with screenshots from the Epstein Files is especially effective because they can’t come up with any excuses for defending him.
