Kennedy Jr. is helping lead an administration that is rolling back protections against pollution and toxic chemicals,...

NEW: For years, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has pushed discredited theories linking vaccines to autism.

Jeffries: Josh Hawley is a total phony at this point. He spent the last few months talking about how devastating these medicaid cuts would be and then turned around and actually voted for it. If he wanted to do something about these medicaid cuts, he could have stopped it…

I can’t believe how stupid everything is. Like just when I worry things can’t get stupider, life finds a way.

Associate Supreme Court Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson will end up being one of the heroes of this era if ever there are historians in the future who write about the fall of the United States

She will almost never be in the majority on a major ruling, but she will have been the conscience of America

When a government starts targeting former intelligence officials, law enforcement leaders, and anyone who once investigated or criticized those in power, it’s not just a red flag, it’s a page straight from the authoritarian playbook.
