It doesn't have to be this way.
With at least 130 having died in the Texas floods, NOAA’s Atlas 15 was the exact kind of tool we need to prepare for future disasters. Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick paused it, stalling vital work forecasting extreme rainfall risk and leaving us vulnerable to future tragedies.

The administration will incinerate enough food to feed 1.5 million children for a week. When it burns, its label will read: THIS PRODUCT IS A GIFT FROM THE AMERICAN PEOPLE. 500 tons, from us, to no one.

I will be forcing a vote to try to strip it out.
Fight like hell. We need to kill this bill.
Due to the ongoing U.S. measles outbreak, a Texas man worried that his young son was at risk and took him to get vaccinated.
The cost of the shot? $1,400.
“What do I tell 663,000 people in two years or three years, when President Trump breaks his promise by pushing them off of Medicaid because the funding is not there anymore?” Tillis said.

Every machine in a Hospital that diagnoses your body without cutting you open is based on a principle of Physics, discovered by a Physicist who had no interest in Medicine.
If you think the world doesn’t need Basic Science, or that somehow Science has failed you, think again.

"You don't have the authority to arrest US citizens who are asking to see a judicial warrant."
NYC mayoral candidate Brad Lander being arrested *along with a member of his NYPD security team* by ICE.
ICE just arrested Brad Lander, the NYC Comptroller and one of the leading candidates for Mayor, without grounds.
He was conducting routine immigration court work, escorting individuals from hearings.
He asked ICE for their warrant - well within his legal rights.
This is political intimidation.
It’d be a slap in the face for Congress to expand tax loopholes for Big Pharma companies that are making billions while overcharging Americans.
These companies should be held accountable for prioritizing profits over people.
Hi, this is Meg Barnette, Brad's wife.
While escorting a defendant out of immigration court at 26 Federal Plaza, Brad was taken by masked agents and detained by ICE.
This is still developing, and our team is monitoring the situation closely.
Community Transit here in the Seattle area asked me to narrate a new video series about the importance of public transit and it turned out great! Second ep just dropped.

He’s targeting immigrants from Black and Brown countries while welcoming in White South Africans.
We’re fighting back with our No Ban Act.
Just to make the obvious explicit: Whether a country is willing to act as an extraterritorial gulag has exactly nothing to do with whether people from that country pose a security risk. They’re not even pretending the “security” pretext for the travel ban is serious.
