Border Patrol Chief Gregory Bovino personally joins ICE raid at Chicago laundromat—owner locks him out and refuses entry.

"When we saw agents we immediately locked the doors," supervisor said.

"No one was committing a crime. We were just doing laundry... It’s racial profiling.It’s a numbers game."

After spending 43 years in prison for a crime he didn't commit, evidence hidden by the prosecution reversed his conviction. Rather than finally enjoying freedom, ICE abducted him for deportation

Depraved.

North Carolina, Michigan, and countless others, when is enough, enough?

When will we all demand better from each other, from our government?

We must stop the hatred of each other, but we must also demand each of our elected officials do more.

As someone in a University of Pittsburgh study for early pancreatic cancer detection, this is literally life saving.
Almost $750 million in NIH funds came to Western PA last year, and I won't stop fighting to make sure our research institutions get the funding they need to do their life-saving work. That’s why I’ve joined more than 150 colleagues in Congress on a court action to protect this critical funding.

We’ll be paying the cost of the Iraq War for as long as my generation of veterans is alive.

Sending Americans into the hell of war is a major decision that only the American people, through the Congress, can make—not a President.

And I haven’t seen the case made for war with Iran.

Sen. Murphy continues to regularly say the things that many of you complain that no prominent Democrat is saying.
The Minnesota assassin appears to be a hate-filled right winger. So can we stop walking on eggshells about MAGA's legitimization of political violence?

Yes, Republicans have also been the target of inexcusable violence, but this isn't a "both sides" issue.

As a four-decade veteran of the daily journalism business, let me tell you: Every competent political reporter in this country knows that Trump is trying to establish a dictatorship. The industry's shame is that so few journalists will say so, and the ones who do lose their jobs.

This is a United States Senator trying to ask questions of a Cabinet Secretary in an open public briefing—and he is violently removed.

Whatever your political views, we are in a gravely serious and dangerous moment.

Moment of clarity today in the Senate where Republicans sided with big banks & against customers. Higher fees, lower transparency.

Now it goes to the House - so call your Member of Congress to ask how they’ll vote!

1. Elon Musk pours nearly $300 million into electing Donald Trump

2. DOGE takes over contracting at key government agencies

3. Musk lines his pockets with taxpayer $$$

This is corruption, plain and simple. The American people won't stand for it.

Cutting NIH grants for clinical trials and medical research will hurt Western PA's economy—NIH funding directly creates 21,000 jobs across PA—and it could stop the research we need to develop treatments and cures for diseases like cancer. (1/4)

It’s gotta kill a really smart, caring, competent person who believes that government can work to protect people and improve their lives (and worked hard to make that happen!) - see shit like this. 😭
So after promising to focus on safety, they’ve gotten right down to work… on gender terminology?
