Federal workers fear Trump will fire them after court ruling: ‘We are toast’ The ruling could usher in a more professionalized round of layoffs, compared to the erratic rush of firings carried out by Elon Musk's U.S. DOGE Service.

Fact-checking Trump and Miller’s claims of a ‘migrant invasion’ in California Federal and state data tell a far different story about migration to California than the political fury unfolding in Washington and on the streets of Los Angeles.

The Trump administration has cast the undocumented as criminals responsible for California's woes and the ICE protests as an overreaction to basic deportation operations.

The reality is very different @mariasacchetti.bsky.social reports

The little-known court that blocked Trump's tariffs has broad authority over trade. Read @tobiaraji.bsky.social on the U.S. Court of International Trade.

Trump’s anger toward World Health Organization may reshape global health, politics Public health experts say the United States’ departure could cripple the WHO’s operations or leave an opening for China to assume greater control over the agency.

Took a beat to unpack a very big decision by Trump: to pull us out of the World Health Organization again.

Losing U.S. donations could blow a major hole in WHO operations, reshaping global health — and position China to further emerge as global leader as Trump retreats.
