The House passed a resolution condemning socialism. Okay.

When are they going to pass a resolution condemning fascism?

The DOGE Damage Elon is Leaving Behind
Robert Reich The DOGE Damage Elon is Leaving Behind

The "Department of Government Efficiency" has disbanded eight months early.

DOGE sowed chaos throughout the government and disrupted services relied upon by millions, while finding hardly any savings.

Here's what you should know about damage that DOGE leaves behind.

I swore an oath to the Constitution in 1986. I've upheld it through 25 years of service and every day since I retired.

If Trump's trying to intimidate me, it won’t work. I’ve given too much to our country to be silenced by bullies who care more about power than the Constitution.

Today, after months of requests, I toured the Broadview ICE Processing Facility. I want to share what I saw.

The facility has no food vendor, no medical care, and detainees have to use toilets in the middle of shared cells. These are in no way suitable conditions to be holding anyone β€” period.

Targeting Kelly is one of those β€œthis is why we’ll win” moments, bc it shows how politically impetuous this admin is.

Death Row Prisoners Granted Clemency by Biden Brace for "Living Hell" Under Trump - Bolts Trump officials are retaliating by imposing the harshest conditions in the entire federal prison system, including near total isolation.

Biden granted mercy to most everyone on federal death row before leaving office. Trump retaliated by putting them in some of the harshest conditions of longterm isolation that American prisons can impose.

Interesting development.

Can we also make sure the initial primary states reflect the diversity of our party? In other words, not Iowa or New Hampshire!

The EPA will approve two new pesticides containing β€œforever chemicals” and relax a reporting rule for companies who make products with forever chemicals.

The moves come after a $60 million lobbying blitz from the forever chemical industry.
