Texas is complicit. I’ve tried calling. They only mock those who disagree with their agenda.

Totally devastating. Vermonters, we must demand the White House releases this funding to the people in our state that need it most.

As Trump tries to dismantle the Department of Education, remember that his plan to cut the corporate tax rate to 15% would give the 100 largest corporations a tax cut larger than the entire department's K-12 budget.

Really think about how twisted this all is.

Immigration agents arrest Palestinian activist who helped lead Columbia University protests A prominent Palestinian activist who helped lead last spring's protests at Columbia University has been arrested by federal immigration agents.

Mahmoud Khalil is a legal, permanent resident and unlawfully detaining him violates the First Amendment. His family and lawyer don’t even know where he is. Release Mahmoud. Being thrown in jail for protesting is the definition of authoritarianism.

Texas cities run short of MMR vaccine as measles outbreak drives demand Pharmacies are struggling with supplies as fatal outbreak expands and health secretary sows disinformation

The demand for the measles vaccine is so high in Texas that they are now RUNNING OUT of them. I have always said it would come to this. Science will always exist. Politics will never usurp it.

Amy Gleason is the acting administrator of the DOGE. Please don’t be distracted by thisβ€”it was only done because federal judges were questioning who was actually running the operation. Gleason is completely controlled by Musk, and he is doing this to avoid testifying.

Jasmine Crockett, after accusing colleagues of castrating their Constitutional duty, said, β€œMy job is to make sure we don’t have any kings or queens in this country, but it seems like you all have decided it’s going to be Mr. King and his queen. And y’all can pick which one is which.”
