It’s a shame this is still happening. I experienced this a lot. Especially before the passage of the ACA.

Since the Democrats worked extra hard to hide who actually supported this, I think the No Kings/Resistance position should be to primary every Democrat unless they publicly call for Schumer's ouster this week

Either they go into total rebellion mode, which they won't, or the people will

A few days after the presidential election one year ago, we went to Fordham Road in the Bronx.

It was a little different last week.

it's time for journos to start asking Johnson meta questions

"Speaker, on 5 occasions last week you said 'I haven't seen it' when asked about news events w/big implications for public policy. Do you ever read the news, and do you agree it's problematic for the Speaker to be so woefully uninformed?"

Opinion | Higher ed is responsible to the public, not the Trump administration Here’s how that role bears out at Carleton College, which I lead, and in Northfield, writes Alison R. Byerly.

Higher ed has a responsibility to the public & supporting students in learning & addressing needs of the community.

So this is why the senate voted to revoke the emergency order giving Trump the power to levy tariffs. Smh … I thought the base of a spine was forming.

This is what we’ve come to. β€œPolitical brinkmanship that treats the most basic human need as a negotiating chip.”

Definitely not how I’d describe a β€œgreat country β€œ.

If Washington won’t lead, Minnesota will.

Trump is holding our tax dollars hostage and cutting off the funding that keeps 440,000 Minnesotans from hunger.

I just announced $4 million in new funding for Minnesota’s food shelves to help our neighbors weather the storm.
