I joined @merkley.senate.gov during his historic marathon floor speech to call out Trump's assault on Congress's power of the purse.

“Robert F. Kennedy Jr., the secretary of health and human services, is endangering the health of the American people now and into the future. He must resign,” Senator Bernie Sanders writes in a guest essay.

Americans do not want to live under a military state, that was never the American dream. Our country was founded on the promise of liberty, not soldiers patrolling our streets. The Constitution is clear: the military does not police civilians.

Norway’s sovereign wealth fund has pulled investments from 11 Israeli companies, citing concerns over Israel’s ongoing war and blockade in Gaza. The fund, the largest in the world, had previously held stakes in 61 Israeli firms.

This is concerning during Trump’s press conference, he portrayed Washington as a testing ground, a place to prove MAGA can manage and “revitalize” cities better than Democrats, with the goal of making it a model for other Democratic-led cities across the USA. A model for what exactly, martial law?

The EPA announced that it has terminated collective bargaining agreements with five unions representing thousands of employees.

Judge John P. Cronan of the U.S. District Court in Manhattan stated the court lacked jurisdiction over the case, explaining that lawsuits seeking financial compensation from the federal government must instead be filed with the Court of Federal Claims in Washington.
