"It's good that Dems are forcing a war powers vote. But they can also link it to a larger case that Trump is conducting himself as a maliciously unhinged despot who's wrecking our system of self rule at its very foundations."

We Spend Almost a Trillion Yearly on War. That’s Insane. Cut the military budget in half. Bloated war spending remains a sacred cow for far too many

While the liar-in-chief thrashes around trying to make up an excuse for attacking Iran and taking the US into war, imagine how many life-changing policies would become possible if America halved its military budget.

US moving pregnant immigrant girls to Texas to avoid providing abortions, critics say Ex-official calls transfer of unaccompanied girls as young as 13, many pregnant due to rape, a human rights violation

“It’s a choice to ensure zero abortions."
Since July, more than a dozen pregnant children have been moved to a single facility in the small town of San Benito, along the south Texas border. The children kept in Texas are as young as 13, and about half are pregnant because of rape.

A scanned image of the first page of a legal document on letterhead from Ken Paxton, Attorney General of Texas, dated February 27, 2026. It is labeled "Opinion No. KP-0518" and addressed to Mr. Darrel D. Spinks, Executive Director of the Texas Behavioral Health Executive Council. A portion of the first paragraph is highlighted in yellow, reading: "mental health care providers" licensed by the Texas Behavioral Health Executive Council."

A scanned image of the second page of the Attorney General Opinion document. A section in the first full paragraph is highlighted in yellow, which reads: "[f]or the purpose of transitioning a child’s biological sex as determined by the sex organs, chromosomes, and endogenous profiles of the child or affirming the child’s perception of the child’s sex if that perception is inconsistent with the child’s biological sex."

A scanned image of the third page of the Attorney General Opinion document. The text discusses various statutory and dictionary definitions of the terms "health care provider" and "health care". There are no highlighted sections on this page.

A scanned image of the seventh and final page of the Attorney General Opinion document, showing the "SUMMARY" section and the signature block for Ken Paxton. The entire summary paragraph is highlighted in yellow, reading: "The definition of a “health care provider” in subsection 161.701(2) of the Health and Safety Code unambiguously encompasses the professions regulated by the Texas Behavioral Health Executive Council. Any licensee that facilitates the provision of unlawful procedures or treatments that aim to transition a child’s sex are thus forbidden from receiving public money in support of those efforts and, separately, risk revocation of their licenses to practice."

Texas AG Ken Paxton has declared that it is illegal for mental health providers and therapists to treat trans youth. It means that trans youth will be denied access to any mental healthcare that isn't conversion therapy. Paxton also threatens parents of trans youth with child abuse investigations.

At least 153 girls killed in strike on school in southern Iran Eyewitness tells MEE girls aged between seven and 12 seen lying dead across their school

153 girls. Children. A school.

Great to hear from Senator Ed Markey, Whip Katherine Clark, Secretary of State Bill Galvin, State Senator Cindy Friedman, and State Rep Dave Rogers at the Arlington caucus, and thanks so for having me speak! #mapoli

It’s an honor!

ABC: “CENTCOM says 3 U.S. service members have been killed, 5 seriously wounded in ongoing Iran operation…”

The Senate must immediately return to session to vote on a war powers resolution. Donald Trump cannot be allowed to continue an unconstitutional, illegal war with Iran.

Overseas, Epstein investigations multiply. In America, not so much. Survivors and legal experts say there is more to do with the Epstein files, but they don't see much interest from the Trump administration.

“Yet the publication of more than 3.5 million documents has prompted a global reckoning," NBC News reported.

"And the investigations are raising questions about why the Trump administration isn’t doing more."

Back to court ... this is a crazy way to govern. This is the start how to end the labor movement. America needs a congress willing to save America. #VoteBlue

Thank you for having me! #mapoli
