That's probably why some voted for him-- to get them out!

One side is driven by hate, fear, and outrage, and the other side wants better healthcare. Thus, there will be an imbalance in how each reacts to such events.

Trump just signed an Executive Order pledging an Article 5-esque security guarantee with Qatar. If they get attacked, America will consider it an attack on us. I'm sure the $400 million bribe they gave him had nothing to do with it...

Remember that Trump lamented that domestic violence was a crime. This is their version of β€œmasculinity”

The Republican leader of the committee refused to require RFK Jr. to swear in before his testimony.

ORLANDO, Fla. (AP) β€” The three-judge panel in Atlanta decided by a 2-1 vote to stay the federal judge’s order pending the outcome of an appeal, saying it was in the public interest.

Dana Nessel: Republican House budget cuts would create β€˜Purge’ scenario in Michigan county The Republican plan would slash funding for Nessel's office by about 30%, impacting services for abuse survivors and county prosecution support, according to the attorney general.

If Michigan House Republicans get their way, Lake County could see a real-life β€œPurge” with no prosecutors and no justice.

Without adequate funding, my office won’t be able to fill these critical gaps. The consequences would be serious and far-reaching.

The White House and DHS seem to be claiming any undocumented Latin American guy arrested by ICE in DC has "suspected gang ties" without any evidence for the accusation. That's not new for them, but it's strikingly racist, slanderous shit from the US government. www.washingtonpost.com/dc-md-va/202...

Sen. Alex Padilla, who was just forcibly removed from a DHS press conference, is the ranking member of Judiciary’s subcommittee on immigration, citizenship, and border safety, which has β€œoversight of federal agencies with citizenship, asylum, refugee, and immigration enforcement responsibilities.”

Kristi Noem must resign. She has deported a four year old with cancer, detained a U.S. marshal, and arrested two members of Congress. She’s lost the confidence of the American people. ICE must stop terrorizing our communities.

If this is how this administration responds to a Senator with a question, you can only imagine what they're doing to farmworkers, to cooks, and to day laborers throughout California and across the country.

We will hold this administration accountable.

The violent detention of Sen. Alex Padilla was terrible. But what DHS Secretary Kristi Noem said right before it might be even more frighteningβ€”and it's just one of several authoritarian messages coming from Trump and his comrades.

This is a lie. We all saw the video. The Senator clearly identified himself, and he did not "lunge" toward anyone.

If these miserable propagandists will lie to you about roughing up a U.S. Senator in a room full of reporters, what won't they lie to you about?

I painted these strong, courageous, joyful women this week from a photo taken 2 weeks ago. These ladies go for a polar plunge in Lake Michigan twice a week, every week throughout the year. They were fun and inspiring to paint. Sunday Swimmers, 7 x 12 pastel.

These are bold and wild allegations from the FBI, which is moving to criminalize organizations like Habitat for Humanity for receiving grants from the EPA.

In a court filing, Citibank disclosed that it had been directed by the FBI to freeze the bank accounts of these groups.

Opinion | A Great Unraveling Is Underway Trump’s foreign policy philosophy is not β€œcontainment” or β€œengagement,” but β€œsmash and grab.”

Several groups representing β€œstartup nations” are drafting legislation to create β€œfreedom cities” in the US that would be free from certain federal laws, WIRED has learned.

They say they've met with the Trump administration about the idea and that the administration has been very receptive.

Districts Can't Pay Teachers Promised Incentives After Trump Admin. Cuts Funding Grants meant for teacher and school leader development in high-need schools were abruptly cut by the Trump administration. Districts are looking for other options.

The abrupt federal freeze on grants that helped develop effective teachers and school leaders have put districts in a bindβ€”they need to scramble to fund these initiatives themselves or put a complete stop to them. www.edweek.org/leadership/d...
