An unhoused pregnant woman in Kentucky was ticketed for "unlawful camping" WHILE IN LABOR! The officer who wrote the citation is named Lt. Caleb Stewart. In this video, I discuss the horrifying body cam footage and Stewart's troubling record. Watch the latest here: youtu.be/CRTos84ib1U?...

Aides assumed this was dead as of a few hours ago.
"When Musk blew up the new bipartisan spending bill, Republicans scrapped $190 million for kids with cancer through 2033," says @chrislhayes.bsky.social. "It is not a culture war. It's cancer research for kids."

Trump tapped Mike Huckabee for Ambassador to Israel: βThereβs really no such thing as a Palestinian.β
Trump himself isnβt ruling out Israelβs annexation of the West Bank.
Folks, this one is PERSONAL to me. Elon Musk said that "Homeless" is a lie.
Since I was actually once homeless myself, I know it's not a lie.

Hard not to feel disgust about all the $$$ wasted on the carceral merry-go-round that takes the unhoused, shoves them into jails that worsen their physical/mental health, then puts them out on the street to start the cycle over.
Every dollar spent on this should go to permanent housing & services.
We'll hear more about work requirements in the future, so save this from @brycecovert.bsky.social when you need evidence they don't work! "The country remains obsessed with making people prove theyβre worthy of coverage instead of just helping them stay healthy." www.thenation.com/article/soci...
