I was skeptical of the viral post but here’s a story about it www.heraldtimesonline.com/story/news/l...

Trump moves to bar nearly all abortions at Veterans Affairs hospitals The Trump administration is moving to end nearly all abortions at Veterans Affairs medical facilities, overturning a Biden-era policy that sought to protect access.

Pregnant veterans would no longer be allowed to receive abortions at Department of Veterans Affairs hospitals in cases of rape, incest or when the pregnancy threatens their health under a proposed rule from the Trump administration.

The Trump administration says it wants to eliminate FEMA. Here's what we know Every year, millions of Americans rely on FEMA assistance after hurricanes, wildfires, tornadoes and other disasters. The president says state governments should do more.

NEWS: Sen. Ossoff and Sen. Mark Kelly reintroduced their Ban Congressional Stock Trading Act. Repost if you agree it's time to BAN stock trading by members of Congress.

This is Marco Rubio explaining how the USA promised to defend Ukraine forever if they got rid of their nuclear arsenal left after the Soviet Union fell.

This is why lil marco was sinking into the couch. He was hoping we wouldn’t find it…so don’t RT right now this very second.

NBC News now reports: Trump fired *18* independent inspectors general in his Friday night purge.

That's according to Mike Ware, the head of the Council of the Inspectors General on Integrity and Efficiency, who was also fired. @msnbc.com

CBS: “Lesson plans about the Tuskegee Airmen, groundbreaking Black pilots known for their service during World War II, and the Women Airforce Service Pilots, or WASPs, vital in ferrying warplanes for the military, removed from 🇺🇸 Air Force curriculum…” www.cbsnews.com/news/tuskege...

Trump just made it easier for his administration to spy on American citizens without oversight by kneecapping one of the only independent watchdogs that maintains a check on illegal government surveillance operations.

YouTube video by VoteVets HEY TRUMP: Afghan Interpreters Risked Their Lives For Our Servicemembers, We Must TAKE THEM TOO!

🚨Sen. Blumenthal isn’t mincing words about the Trump administration canceling flights for Afghan refugees who were ALREADY CLEARED:

"Our nation has a sacred promise that we've made to do right by the men and women who risk their lives for our freedoms and democracy and do right for their families."

📚 KNOX COUNTY YANKS 48 BOOKS: “KCS librarians and administrators sorted through the thousands of titles on its shelves to comply with the (GOP) law — doesn't define many specifics, leaving administrators to grapple with its interpretation.” www.knoxnews.com/story/news/e...

A graphic from the ACLU of Texas describing constitutional rights when interacting with authorities.

Media reports say San Antonio could be one of the cities targeted by Trump's immigration raids this week. No matter what, we know that:

1) You have basic rights (listed below).

2) Trump will say he's going after criminals. He's a liar. Texans need to look out for each other.

I really need this right now.

"We need leaders not in love with money but in love with Justice

"Not in love with publicity but in love with humanity

"Leaders who can subject their particular egos to the pressing urgencies of the great cause of freedom."
