Disgusting. Horrendous. Happening to our neighbors in the dead of night.

The National Guard may be deployed in Los Angeles tonight.

Not for an earthquake.

Not for wildfires.

But to silence protests against ICE raids.

This is a humanitarian crisis.

And peaceful protest is not a crime.
It is a cry for dignity.

A demand for justice.

Hundreds of rural hospitals are at risk of closing, threatening critical care Hospital officials told CBS News the closure was driven by the same factors that have closed other rural hospitals: low reimbursement rates.

We should be investing in rural communities and making them better places to build a life & raise a family - not shutting down rural hospitals by choking off their funding.

Saving rural hospitals is one more reason to call your Representative and speak out against this GOP attempt to cut Medicaid.

Gallaudet University ‘Deaf President Now' protests focus of new documentary A week-long protest in the 1980s where Gallaudet University students demanded a Deaf president is being made into a documentary. News4’s Tommy McFly has the details.

A week-long protest in the 1980s where Gallaudet University students demanded a Deaf president is being made into a documentary.

That is in fact what this administration has done.

Can we start with U.S. presidents?

There it is, in a nutshell.

Tweet showing a protest-style sign on a city street that reads, “We are officially living out the part of history that makes school kids ask, WHY DIDN’T ANYONE DO ANYTHING TO STOP THEM?”

Trump administration sues Maine over participation of transgender athletes in girls sports The Trump administration is suing Maine’s education department for not complying with its push to ban transgender athletes in girls and women's sports.

Maine Gov. Janet Mills:

"This matter has never been about school sports or the protection of women and girls, as has been claimed, it's about states rights and defending the rule of law against a federal government bent on imposing its will, instead of upholding the law"

‘Treated like a criminal': US citizen says he was detained returning from Canada Bachir Atallah, a real estate attorney from New Hampshire, says he and his wife, Jessica Fakhri, were stopped crossing from Canada into Vermont

"After nearly five hours, he and his wife were released. They are now pursuing legal action.

"It's not about the immigrants," his sister, told NBC10 Boston. "It's coming to us Americans, and it's going to go after all of us."

Let’s be clear. When the President defies the Supreme Court, it is the role of Congress to remove him from office. Full stop.

When Stephen Miller is running immigration policy, Don Bongino is operating FBI surveillance, Pete Hegseth is deciding who to bomb, and Laura Loomer is firing top national security aides, you don’t have an administration. You have an asylum.

Nero fiddled while Rome burned. Trump golfed while the economic crisis he created wrecked our markets.

The ruling comes after Republican candidate Jefferson Griffin, who lost the race, challenged the eligibility of tens of thousands of 2024 voters. Those voters will now have 15 days to verify their eligibility, potentially changing the outcome of the election.

I am so touched by the thousands of Americans who have reached out to my office thanking me for standing up to Trump and his tariffs—and winning.

I want to thank all of YOU for your continued advocacy to make that win possible. Together, we are strong.

Sen. Booker just broke the record for the longest floor speech in Senate history—a record set by Strom Thurmond trying to block the Civil Rights Act. The irony ain’t lost on us. From fighting against justice to fighting for it. This is what courage & being on the right side of history looks like!

The image is a screenshot of a post on X by the account Jim Himes (@jahimes ). The post reads: "Last week, Tulsi Gabbard said 'any unauthorized release of classified information is a violation of law and will be treated as such.' By the Trump admin’s own 'standards' everyone on this chain would lose their access to classified info and be subject to criminal investigation." Below this, there is a reposted tweet from Shane Harris (@shaneharris ), which states: "In 25 years of covering national security, I’ve never seen a story like this: Senior Trump officials discussed planning for the U.S. attack on the Houthis in a Signal group—and inadvertently added the editor-in-chief of..." (the message cuts off). The reposted tweet was made 6 hours prior, as indicated by the timestamp.

They’re gonna move the goal posts a lot for the DUI hire.

The Trump Administration Accidentally Texted Me Its War Plans U.S. national-security leaders included me in a group chat about upcoming military strikes in Yemen. I didn’t think it could be real. Then the bombs started falling.

From an operational security perspective, this is the highest level of fuckup imaginable. These people cannot keep America safe.

Statement reading: While the government will remain open, we are frustrated that this funding bill gives a blank check to Donald Trump and Elon Musk to continue attacking the federal workforce and dismantling the services Virginians rely on. This bill lacks the meaningful proposals we offered as amendments to rein in and defund DOGE and protect our veterans from being indiscriminately fired – because Republicans blocked them all. As Donald Trump and Elon Musk continue to seek giant tax cuts for billionaires while laying off workers, slashing services, and tanking our economy, we will keep standing up for everyday Virginians, who have had enough of this chaos and lawlessness. That means we are already gearing up for our next fight: forcing a Senate vote on our legislation to challenge Trump’s senseless trade war with Canada, which will only raise costs for Virginians.

My statement with @markwarner.bsky.social on the passage of the House Republicans’ government spending bill:

These are the senators who collaborated with the GOP.

Schumer
Fetterman
Cortez Masto
Durbin
King
Shaheen
Gillibrand
Schatz
Hassan
Peters

Don’t let them forget it. No peace for them.

Indeed.

'Not lazy swamp creatures': What federal workers said about DOGE, job cuts and feelings of betrayal NBC Washington asked government workers and contractors to weigh in on the impact of the cuts. Some feel "a punch in the gut."

“The current treatment of civil servants isn’t just a slap in the face; it’s a punch in the gut.” Here’s what federal workers said about DOGE, job cuts and feelings of betrayal.

Hate to break it to y’all, but eventually… we’re gonna have to do something.

More of this!

Yas witch! Definitely worth doing all my own stunts. 🧹🩷 #DefyDemocracy

Update: President Trump is running late due to the failed policies of Joe Biden

"History will remember this day— when an American President and Vice President abandoned all we stand for."

A tweet from Julia Ioffe ( @juliaioffe ) stating: "Now federal workers can reply by saying, 'We wasted hours and hours of our time, paid for by U.S. taxpayers, just trying to figure out whether to answer this stupid email.'" Below the tweet, there is a screenshot of a Washington Post "Politics Alert" notification, reading: "Trump administration breaks with Elon Musk, telling federal agencies they can ignore his order on email reply." The notification includes the Washington Post logo.

The economy will soon crash and burn like one of his cars.

Let’s get something clear. The GOP has the power to keep the government from shutting down in March. They control both chambers of Congress and the White House. If they can’t reach a budget deal within their own ranks, that completely on them.

Dems: Don’t lift a finger to help them. Not one.
