Citing Trump Order on โ€œBiological Truth,โ€ VA Makes It Harder for Male Veterans With Breast Cancer to Get Coverage A Department of Veterans Affairs memo obtained by ProPublica erects new roadblocks to care for veterans with the rare but deadly cancer. The agency cites no new science but relies on an executive orde...

Male veterans are encountering obstacles in getting treatment for breast cancer in the VA system because of Trump's executive order meant to oppress trans people. I say that again: non-trans men are struggling to get treatment for breast cancer due to transphobia.

I would be very interested to know what governor Pritzker's position is on this at this moment. Haven't heard from him for a while or today.

Iโ€™m anti-Trump.
Anyone who is not anti-Trump is a racist, fascist, child rapist loving traitor to our nation.
Thatโ€™s right. I said it. The statement is that of the obvious.

The world's 10 richest people (nearly all from the U.S.) are collectively $500 billion richer this year thanks to growth in stocks tied to AI.

Meanwhile, data centers are sucking up communitiesโ€™ water and electricity.

AI is making the rich even richer while everyone else pays the price.

Opinion | โ€˜No Kingsโ€™ and the False Equivalency of Patriotism Austin Stewart writes about the โ€œNo Kingsโ€ protests and how they represent the wide spectrum of patriotism in the United States.

OPINION: "As we approach the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence , I fear that any national celebration facilitated by the federal government will not speak to a brand of patriotism that is shared by millions of Americans," Austin Stewart writes.

Federal agents execute warrants in Pasadena; DHS leads operations Federal agents and officers cleared the scene after law enforcement activity drew a crowd earlier today, Pasadena Police Department officials said.

โ€œThey began banging hard on the door, tore off the cameras so we couldnโ€™t see them, and eventually cut off our electricity.โ€

When asked if she knew why federal agents were after her husband or if he had committed a crime, Barrรณn said, โ€œNo, never any crime..."

More Than 170 U.S. Citizens Have Been Held by Immigration Agents. Theyโ€™ve Been Kicked, Dragged and Detained for Days. The government does not track how often immigration agents grab citizens. So ProPublica did. Our tally โ€” almost certainly incomplete โ€” includes people who were held for days without a lawyer. And near...

Americans have been dragged, tackled, beaten, tased and shot by immigration agents.

Theyโ€™ve had their necks kneeled on.

Theyโ€™ve been held outside in the rain while in their underwear.

At least three citizens were pregnant when agents detained them.

It's of course not the point, but Trump doesn't even have the sense, taste, or knowledge to use USA-quarried Danby marble, the stone used for monuments and buildings in DC, and of which the feds have exclusive claim on the finest varieties.
