Trump administration to cancel $1bn in Biden-era school mental health grants
Funding will not be continued next year after bill signed in 2022 helped schools hire more mental health workers
You really have to be a special kind of evil to rip $1 BILLION from school mental health and anti-violence programs—because they dared to be inclusive. Trump isn’t saving kids—he’s sacrificing them to push his hateful agenda.

The terrible CR Budget bill — written by right-wing House Republicans with no input from anybody but themselves — was passed tonight with the support of 10 Democrats.
An absolute failure of Democratic leadership. NOBODY in the Senate should have voted for this dangerous bill.

If every progressive, nationally and internationally, abandoned X right now that platform would eventually die off. One of the very few powers we have right now is our power as consumers. If you still have X right now-- really? Elon Musk is dismantling federal departments and ruining people's lives.

I think some in the Senate have convinced themselves that the backlash to folding will be limited to “the left” and therefore ignorable.
Those people are deeply and profoundly misreading the moment and the stakes.
Virtually every swing district House Dem walked the plank to vote NO for a reason.

Trump's 𝐃𝐞𝐬𝐩𝐢𝐜𝐚𝐛𝐥𝐞 𝐃𝐢𝐬𝐩𝐥𝐚𝐲 𝐨𝐟 𝐃𝐢𝐬𝐫𝐞𝐬𝐩𝐞𝐜𝐭 to our ally in the Oval Office is a DAMN SHAME.
Denigrating a democratic world leader while sitting next to him has not only jeopardized our work with global allies. Once again, Trump's ego just put our national security at risk.

Last night, my colleagues and I told Trump’s Education Dept. to scrap its Feb. 14 threat to yank federal funding from schools with DEIA programs. Bullying isn’t a policy—it’s just cowardly.

Measles outbreak in Texas rises to at least 58 cases — the state's worst in over 30 years
A measles outbreak in Texas has led to 58 confirmed cases, making it the state's worst in over 30 years — and local health officials say additional cases are likely to occur.
In 2019, RFK Jr visited Samoa to spread anti-vax lies, spurring a measles outbreak that led to the deaths of 83 people - mostly children.
We can’t let that tragedy repeat in Texas. The MMR vaccine is 97% effective at preventing measles. Let’s stop the spread.

If you are a federal worker being offered a buyout, I would advise against taking it.
Of course, this is a personal decision for everyone and it’s your choice.
But these offers are a rush job. The legality is questionable and this admin does not keep to its word.
They aren’t firing for a reason.

Elon Musk, encouraged by his mother and an army of his cultish fans, is threatening tonight to sue a Washington Post journalist for pointing out on live TV that neo-Nazis welcomed his salute on Inauguration Day.
Can we finally put the ‘he’s a free speech absolutist!’ BS to bed?

Dems definitely proved that they have no empathy if it means appeasing our allies. Nonetheless if she had gotten in it would've been the only chance had. Now protestors will be deported & Palestinians will be forced out. I hope that Trump changes his tune, but it isn't looking good.

Save for the bombs which were just sent to Bibi and the selling off of the West Bank & Gaza. Biden was a Zionist & complicit in the genocide. An arms embargo would have saved 1,000s.But at least he wouldn't allow Israel to take Gaza. Gaza & the West Bank will soon belong to Israel because of Trump.

I 100% care and have called it a genocide since it started. It is a genocide, undeniably. They've killed more babies than any recent war in history. I despise Biden for his funding of this genocide. I just also know what Harris said & care about facts. She was the most pro-Gaza of the viable options

Trump didn't threaten Israel. He is Israel's candidate of choice. It's why he has now said that he'll pressure neighboring countries to take in Gazans, and give that land to Israel (or use it himself). He's talked about how good the location is by the sea. He doesnt want a 2 state solution.

She should've made harder statements but after calling out Israel for being inhumane the National Intelligence Agency reeled her in. She did agree with protestors though, stating that what they said was happening. And she did state that Israel has an obligation to abide by international law.

Pete Hegseth admitted to the Senate that he paid $50,000 (!!!) to silence a "Jane Doe" who accused him of rape.
But at his hearing last week, he said he was “falsely accused."
More questions than answers. We can't rush his vote and trust him with our national security.
