WTF?!? Border Czar Tom Homan claimed that ICE and Border Patrol agents don’t need probable cause to detain people they suspect are undocumented, saying they can do so based on factors like physical appearance. This is straight-up racial profiling, not law enforcement.

Today proves that Republicans were serious about one promise: to cut taxes for the wealthy. All the rest was bullshit.

Jeffries: "As a result of the all-out Republican assault on healthcare, people will die. Tens of thousands, perhaps year after year, as a result of the Republican assault on the healthcare of the American people. I'm sad. I never thought that I'd be on the House floor saying this is a crime scene"

The 35 richest Republican members of Congress have a net worth of $2.5 billion.
They stand to gain from the GOP budget's tax cuts that disproportionately help the rich.
Meanwhile, they're cutting Medicaid and food assistance for millions of their constituents.

The Trump regime is harming innocent Americans, targeting reporters and peaceful protesters. Video after video keeps surfacing, widely shared on TikTok and Reddit. These aren’t threats, they’re people walking home, holding signs, clearly marked as press. And still, they’re being targeted.

Remember: Almost all of us are the descendants of immigrants who fled persecution, or were brought to America under duress, or sought better lives for themselves and their descendants.
Politicians who stoke fear and hatred over immigration want you to forget this.

Library of Congress staff just showed what resistance looks like. After Trump abruptly fired Dr. Carla Hayden, the respected Librarian of Congress, he tried to install Todd Blanche, his former personal lawyer and current Deputy Attorney General, as acting librarian. Staff weren’t having it.

Senator Angus King (I-ME) reaching to history to recall Senator Margaret Chase Smith (R-ME) and her 1950 stand against what she called "Republican Fascists." (King does not hold Chase's seat; Senator Susan Collins (R) does.)
Margaret Chase Smith’s words ring more true — and urgent — today than when she first spoke them. Americans should put aside politics and return to what unites us: the Constitution. We can disagree about policy, but we cannot waver on our commitment to our founding principles.

Under Trump, Americans are relearning the lesson we learned about the oligarchy during the Gilded Age of the late 1890s, when robber barons ran the government and the economy for their own benefit: Oligarchy is incompatible with the common good.
