WATCH β @repstevenhorsford.bsky.social : βMy amendment would redirect that $40 BILLION from Argentina to fund the ACA subsidies for two yearsβ¦ a far better use of taxpayer dollars.β
Why do we have money for Argentina while our own people lose their health care? How does this make us great?

Harvard Ends Undergraduate Minority Recruitment Program as Trump Targets Race in Admissions | News | The Harvard Crimson
By ending the minority recruitment program in May, Harvard shuttered a more than 50-year-old initiative to encourage minority high school students to apply.
i have said this before but when βgetting rid of race in admissionsβ for the administration means βyou canβt even try to reach out to underrepresented communities and encourage them to apply and if you do it is illegal discrimination against white peopleβ then the actual goal here is segregation

A beatdown in broad daylight was caught on video: Masked men in tactical vests grappled, tased, and piled onto a delivery worker. Pinning the worker face down on the pavement, agents tased him again and punched him repeatedly in the head.
