WASHINGTON POST: An isolated, angry #JohnFetterman becomes yet another problem for Dems
His relationship with the #DemocraticParty has become increasingly strained while he’s faced protests by liberal activists and watched staffers flee.
Some #Democrats have been mystified at what they see as his standoffish behavior, saying he blows off meeting requests, spurns senators’ weekly lunches and has left the caucus’s private group chat.
#Republicans see an opening....

L'immagine è un meme a tre parti che utilizza scene e testo per creare un effetto comico. Nella prima parte, un uomo con una barba e capelli lunghi, indossando un cappotto verde militare, alza le mani in segno di resa. Il testo sopra di lui recita: "Don't shoot I'm an idiot" (Non sparare, sono un idiota). Nella seconda parte, un gruppo di soldati in uniforme marrone si trova in un paesaggio innevato e distrutto, con uno di loro che alza le mani, e il testo dice: "Prove it!" (Dimoerala!). Nella terza parte, lo stesso uomo indossa un paio di occhiali VR e alza di nuovo le mani, con il testo: "I bought this for $3499" (Ne ho comprati per 3499 dollari). L'immagine satirizza la situazione comica di qualcuno che cerca di dimostrare la propria innocenza con un oggetto costoso, come un paio di occhiali VR, in una situazione di pericolo.

cnn.com/2025/05/15/media/fcc-a…
A Democratic commissioner on the Federal Communications Commission tore into the panel’s recent actions under its new chairman, without naming him, saying the agency has been “weaponized to chill speech and to punish the press.”
“We are witnessing a dangerous precedent: the transformation of an independent regulator into an instrument of political censorship,” Anna Gomez...said.

As Republicans weigh Medicaid work requirements, Georgia offers a warning
“It’s going to be creating this administrative bureaucracy and devastating amount of poor people who, despite being eligible, are going to lose coverage so that Congress can fund tax cuts for the wealthiest,” said MaryBeth Musumeci, an associate professor of health policy and management at George Washington University’s Milken Institute School of Public Health.

The image features a simple black and white stick figure on the left side, with a long neck, a cap, and a stick-like arm pointing towards a logo on the right. The stick figure has a sad expression, with a straight line for a mouth and two dots for eyes. The text above the figure reads, "C'mon, do a Resist Tyranny." The logo on the right is the emblem of the National Rifle Association, with a red background, a gold eagle, and crossed rifles. The text around the emblem reads "NATIONAL RIFLE ASSOCIATION" with the year "1871" at the bottom. The overall image is a meme that uses humor to comment on the NRA's stance on gun rights.

UnitedHealth is under federal criminal investigation for possible Medicare fraud, causing a significant loss of investor confidence and a steep stock decline. The developments come after the murder of one of its top executives, Brian Thompson, in Midtown Manhattan. 🎉
