They don’t care.

They don’t care that the Supreme Court ruled 9-0 to bring an innocent man home to his family.

They don’t care.

They think it’s funny.

Harvard has set an example for other higher-ed institutions - rejecting an unlawful and ham-handed attempt to stifle academic freedom, while taking steps to make sure students can benefit from an environment of intellectual inquiry, rigorous debate and mutual respect. Let’s hope others follow suit.

An innocent man was β€œmistakenly” taken and sent to a foreign prison. The Supreme Court ruled 9-0 he must be brought home β€” yet he’s still there.

Every day this administration shows just how vile and lawless it remains.

Bring him home!

As the economic news keeps coming out over the coming weeks keep one thing in mind: this is the fault of one man and didn’t need to happen.

Please share!!! This is getting ridiculousβ€”they just can’t accept a loss. Please help spread the word to North Carolina. The North Carolina Court of Appeals ruled in a 2-1 decision that over 60,000 votes cast in last year’s closely contested state Supreme Court race must be verified and recounted.

Sen. Tillis (R-N.C.) says he’s inclined to support the Grassley-Cantwell bill.

Says he’s heard from constituents worried about the tariffs, esp farmers & restaurant/lodging sectors.

Everyone in red states :: call your reps!!

U.S.D.A. Freezes Funding for Maine Amid Battle Over Transgender Athletes The administration concluded last month that Maine had violated federal law by allowing transgender athletes to play on girls’ or women’s teams.

There's a lot going on, God knows, but don't miss that the President of the United States is using the full force of the Federal government, as well as tax dollars, to punish a state because its Governor... refused to do as he instructed.

At one of his frequent press conferences (because he loves being on TV), I'd love it if some reporter piped up with, "What do you say to people who call you a know-nothing narcissistic asshole, Mr. President?"

Statement from Elias Law Group Chair Marc Elias

My advice is if your law firm can't say this, get yourself a new law firm.

"Elias Law Group will not be deterred from fighting for democracy in court. There will be no negotiation with this White House about the clients we represent or the lawsuits we bring on their behalf."

I may be tired and a little hoarse, but as I said again and again on the Senate floor, this is a moment where we cannot afford to be silent, when we must speak up.

The wages of the richest 1% have skyrocketed 182% since 1979.Β 

Meanwhile, the wages of the bottom 90% have seen just 44% growth.Β 

Trickle down economics was always a hoax.
