Civil rights group sues ICE for withholding records of the agency's detention expansion plans in Virginia ICE solicited bids to expand detention in Virginia—then failed to respond to a public records request. Now, the ACLU is suing.

The public has a right to know how ICE is planning to expand its network of detention centers — especially when these centers hold thousands of our neighbors and loved ones in inhumane and unconstitutional conditions.

It's crazy how some people need no proof to believe a lie, but demand endless proof to accept the truth.

AOC: I think there's two things that are happening at once: One, there absolutely is an unprecedented abuse of power, destruction of norms, erosion of our government and our democracy in order to prop up an authoritarian style of governance

However, they are weaker than they look…

BINGO!

Donald Trump and his lapdog GOP Congress are so against lowering health care costs that they're instead shutting down the federal government.

Food assistance thrown into jeopardy. Troops going without pay. Essential services shuttered.

This is how MAGA treats our country.

When the President uses federal law enforcement for his personal revenge, it puts all of us in danger.

USDA cancels survey tracking how many Americans struggle to get enough food The Department of Agriculture said it will end a longstanding annual food insecurity survey. Experts say the move will obscure the effects of recent changes that will lead to people losing food aid.

Trump, Tylenol and Autism President Trump urged pregnant women to avoid acetaminophen, the active ingredient in Tylenol, claiming it could cause autism. Studies about the link have been inconclusive.

President Trump on Monday repeatedly gave out unproven medical advice that linked autism to Tylenol and childhood vaccines. What does the scientific research actually tell us? Listen to today's episode of "The Daily."

Let’s be clear about what happened to Jimmy Kimmel Trump’s most brazen attack on free speech yet.

After years of complaining about cancel culture, the current administration has taken it to a new and dangerous level by routinely threatening regulatory action against media companies unless they muzzle or fire reporters and commentators it doesn’t like.

Right now there's a clear and obvious relationship between social media and anti-social behavior, and we cannot go on like this.

Today we honor the lives lost on September 11th, 2001, including the brave first responders who made the ultimate sacrifice while serving others. We will never forget.

Three people are in critical condition after a shooting at a high school in Evergreen, Colorado, according to St. Anthony's Hospital. Evergreen is 28 miles southwest from Denver.

Trump will do all he can to “fix” the 2026 and 2028 elections to secure MAGA victories by every method he can muster, however blatantly illegal and unconstitutional, whatever the courts might say. If every eligible voter shows up, we can overwhelm his schemes.

Otherwise, our way of life is doomed.

As long as guns are easily available to crazy people, mass killings directed at so-called soft targets will continue. This is a fact. Countries where it's more difficult for crazy people to obtain guns have less shootings. This is also a fact. Do with these facts as you will.

Andy Barr is going absolutely nothing to help Kentuckians.

The ousting of Dr. Susan Monarez as CDC Director, followed within hours by the resignations of Dr. Deb Houry, Dr. Demetre Daskalakis, and Dr. Daniel Jernigan, mark a collapse of public health leadership with consequences that reach every American household.

“Thoughts and prayers.”

“There is something deeply hypocritical about praying for a problem you are unwilling to resolve.” -Miroslav Volf

It isn't until the 26th paragraph that there is mention that what Trump is doing is being challenged as illegal. And it accepts Trump's stated rationale to act.

Here is what I think: Trump is illegally deploying the military in blue cities to set the stage to interfere with the 2026 elections.
