Shame on you. As a DU graduate I'm asking you to do what is RIGHT.

Klobuchar: "When I questioned AG Bondi during her confirmation hearing, she assured me that politics would not play a role, that they would make independent decisions. That is not what this is. This is a vengeance prosecution. It is not about the law."

Inside CHOP’s fight against Trump’s Justice Department investigation into gender-affirming care The Justice Department under President Trump subpoenaed CHOP for patients' names, dates of birth, Social Security numbers, and address and parent/guardian information.

He’s fucking Hitler 2.0.
Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia is fighting a federal subpoena, demanding they turn over detailed medical records of youth who sought gender-affirming care.

Completely illegal but expected from the 🍊 ratshit

The damage this man has done is incalculable.

We want to apologize if it feels like we’ve been venting a lot lately. It’s just hard to ignore that nearly every move from this administration seems to be illegal, unlawful, or outright unconstitutional and yet nothing happens.

Ten indicators of what’s going on with America’s economy Trumponomics has begun to hit America’s growth

America’s remarkable run of economic growth may be slowing. Recent data point to weaker output as tariffs, economic uncertainty, curbs on migration and attacks on institutions such as the Federal Reserve take their toll

Really sick of your sane-washing lately.

Re: The Middle. The Constitution is clear. We have a separation of church and state. Period. Stop giving a platform to people who want to end that.

@NPR is airing (again! Bc once is not enough, apparently) an episode of The Middle in which people who want to break down the separation of church and state are given a voice.

I've been SO disappointed in NPR since it decided to pander to fascism.

This is a perfect case for a no-immunity lawsuit. #DanielRippeon #EdgewaterPD #UnlawfulArrest #UnlawfulDetention

There is a social contract where the govt looks after us or at least doesn't let us die unnecessarily.
I don't believe america would manage a covid type disease with a higher mortality rate such as SARS earlier this century.Poverty and income disparity among other economic markers WILL get worse

45,000 people die every year from not having health insurance and not getting the care they need.

Absolutely bonkers — Joni Ernst doubles down on her “we are all gonna die” defense of Medicaid cuts while walking through a cemetery

The new GOP slogan (thank you, Joni Ernst.)

Wow

“We All Are Going To Die.” In which Joni Ernst says the quiet part out loud.

Poverty? “Well, we all are going to die.” Kids without insulin? “Well, we all are going to die.” School shootings, poisoned water, hurricane devastation, a mother’s cancer, a family’s hunger? “Well, we all are going to die.”

Coke is sponsoring the 🍊💩🤡's dictator parade, in case that's information you can use.

There is a false dichotomy drawn between "the ivory tower" and "the real world," and I'm here to report that in a post-industrial society, your real-world economy absolutely hinges on the university.

University towns are factory towns. Universities drive economic activity, not the other way around.

In a world of Matthew McConaugheys be a Pedro Pascal.

Hands Off Medicaid Rally: Jasper County, Iowa This Wednesday, May 21st at 12:30pm CT, seniors, doctors, and community members with Social Security Works and Progress Iowa will hold a Hands Off Medicaid rally outside the MercyOne Newton Medical Ce...

Join us tomorrow in Jasper County, Iowa for a Hands Off Medicaid rally!

The county's Rep, Mariannette Miller-Meeks (R-IA), won her seat by only 800 votes. She's a doctor — and voted for $700 billion in Medicaid cuts.

If these cuts become law, 67,000 of her constituents will lose health care.
