When your neighbor on the left is being dragged away by masked men and your neighbor on the right can't get an X-ray for their child, be sure to quickly explain that "both parties are the same" and whatnot.

To all you "Christians" gloating and laughing about the cruelty of Alligator Alcatraz:

Jesus would like a word.

And then a ferocious slap.

A win! Thank you to everyone who spoke out! After facing bipartisan resistance, the Senate Parliamentarian, ruled that Sen. Mike Lee’s proposal to sell off millions of acres of federal land cannot be included under reconciliation rules.

Three years ago, the Dobbs decision took away a woman’s right to make her own reproductive health care decisions.

Today, Texas girls have fewer rights than their mothers and grandmothers. We cannot and will not stop fighting for a woman’s right to choose. #txlege

Kennedy's new vaccine panel lacks experience and shouldn’t meet, Sen. Cassidy says Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. fired all members of the vaccine advisory panel this month and appointed his own slate.

Regret voting to confirm RFK Jr., Senator?? HE LIED. Which is par for the course for your party. Don't get yer knickers in a twist now. You had a chance to stop it and you didn't. And you being a "medical doctor" makes that WORSE. Pffft 🖕.

DOGE is a criminal conspiracy to defraud the people of the United States

Harvard has set an example for other higher-ed institutions - rejecting an unlawful and ham-handed attempt to stifle academic freedom, while taking steps to make sure students can benefit from an environment of intellectual inquiry, rigorous debate and mutual respect. Let’s hope others follow suit.

@warren.senate.gov: "State attorneys general have the same opportunity to investigate, dig in, get what the facts are. So for example, Letitia James, the NY attorney general, which has jurisdiction over the stock market and the trading that happens in NY, might decide she would take a look at this."

Trump’s EPA Plans to Stop Collecting Greenhouse Gas Emissions Data From Most Polluters Climate experts expressed shock and dismay at the move. “It would be a bit like unplugging the equipment that monitors the vital signs of a patient that is critically ill,” one said.

All libraries are about adding quality to your life.

Consider how your local library helps so many.

All library staff and volunteers work hard to make your life better.

Mahmoud Khalil expressed his political point of view peacefully.  

That’s supposed to be permitted in a democracy.

If this egregious assault on civil liberties stands, what’s to stop Trump from arresting American citizens who support any cause his regime doesn’t like?

It's long past time to ban insider trading in Congress.

Republicans in Congress can repeal every tariff tomorrow and take Trump’s tariff authority away from him. But they choose not to. So every Republican in Congress owns EVERY SINGLE BIT of this. You can’t hide from the voters forever.

The entire permanent staff of the Division of Environmental Health Science and Practice was laid off. This division addresses issues such as asthma and air pollution, climate change and health, childhood lead poisoning, and cancer clusters.

Murphy: "Newsflash: These guys are incompetent. They don't know what they're doing. We hired a weekend Fox News host with no diplomatic or management experience with a checkered personal history of abuse and alcoholism to be our chief national security official. And it's going very badly."
