Opinion | Trump Aid Cuts Kill More Christians Than Jihadists Do Murderous attacks on Christians and Muslims alike are a real problem in Nigeria. Cutting humanitarian assistance there is even more lethal.

“If Trump cares about Christians or anyone else in Nigeria, all he needs to do is restore aid and let babies live,” our columnist Nicholas Kristof writes.

Pam Keith • @PamKeithFL Fun fact: Gambling is illegal in Hawaii but totally legal in Nevada. Question: Should Hawaii be able to prosecute Hawaiians who go to Vegas to gamble? If you answer NO, you are just scratching the surface of the breathtaking unconstitutionality of the Georgia abortion ban

Sen. Ron Wyden is calling out the GOP for pushing to slip a nationwide backdoor abortion ban into the government funding bill. This is dangerous for women’s health care. We’ve already seen the consequences in states like TX, but I guess the GOP is intent on The Handmaid’s Tale.

Thank you to Senator Ron Wyden for letting us know the MAGA Senate Republicans are trying to slide a nationwide abortion ban into the shutdown negotiations.

Hell no! They want to control every part of women’s lives and we aren’t having it.

F the patriarchy.

Ban abortion. Then starve babies. The "Pro-Life" agenda.

Senate update: Republicans are now trying to sneak a backdoor national abortion ban into their government funding bill. Republicans will stop at nothing to control women's health care decisions.

In Chicago, We Run Toward Danger Together "Faced with unrelenting state violence, Chicagoans have refused to be cowed," says Mariame Kaba.

“The regime wants all of us afraid. It is counting on fear immobilizing us and perhaps even turning us against each other. Instead, what we are currently seeing in Chicago is that solidarity can overcome fear and can give people the courage and tenacity to fight for each other.” --Mariame Kaba

War Powers Law Does Not Apply to Trump’s Boat Strikes, Administration Says The move deepened the idea that a Vietnam-era law, which says congressionally unauthorized deployments into “hostilities” must end after 60 days, does not apply to airstrike campaigns.

The Justice Department told Congress this week that President Trump could lawfully continue his lethal military strikes on people suspected of smuggling drugs at sea. The move rests on the idea that a Vietnam-era law called the War Powers Resolution does not apply to airstrike campaigns.

Hope everyone saw the new marble and gold bathroom…..

Why would the administration need payment options?

Trump is not just ignoring this but has locked the snap card so that if they had any food stamps money in them they can’t use them. He’s really taking his role as Marie Antoinette very seriously.

Agreed!

Big thanks to Love Island’s Adam Collard for being open about his own experience of being bullied and helping shine a light on this issue. #SayItLoudSaturdays

Under Trump, Becoming a U.S. Citizen Gets Harder Federal officials say overhauling the process is necessary to ensure that only fully qualified immigrants become citizens.

The Trump administration is creating new hurdles for lawful permanent residents applying for U.S. citizenship as part of its broader immigration crackdown. The changes are stoking fear among those who want to apply but are hesitant to invite greater scrutiny to their cases, legal advocates say.

President Trump and his congressional allies could end the pain of the government shutdown “by doing what they should have done months ago: making a deal,” the editorial board writes. “The hard work of governing in a democracy is hammering out a compromise.”
