When Trump returned to power, one of our recommendations for Democrats to fight back was to hold shadow hearings on the damage of the Musk-Trump Administration.

We’re happy to see House Democrats embrace this strategy with the GOP’s proposed Medicaid cuts: democraticleader.house.gov/media/press-...

“According to two administration officials, Trump told top members of his administration that Musk was empowered to make recommendations to the departments but not to issue unilateral decisions on staffing and policy. Musk was also in the room.”

Trump’s coup is still underway, and an unelected billionaire is handing teenagers the keys to Americans’ most sensitive data — yet 10 House Democrats just sided with Republicans to police criticism of Trump.

I want to be posting something else today. I want to be celebrating Senate Democrats who took a stand, driving thank-you calls to their offices. Instead, I have to post this (again).

15 Dems just voted to advance one of Trump’s MAGA nominees. Here's the roll call: www.senate.gov/legislative/...

🚨Reminder! 🚨Republicans are behind closed doors right now trying to figure out how to cut 880 billion from medicaid. Medicaid covers 41% of births in the US millions of children, and millions of people with disabilities. Keep up the pressure! Call your electeds!

Straight up political influence interfering with science. This cannot end well. Your grant didn’t get canceled yet? Maybe next time! If your research could show that the world isn’t upside down like Trump claims it is, you’ll be a target. We cannot have science contradicting the king.
"In an unprecedented move, the US National Institutes of Health (NIH) has begun mass terminations of research grants that fund active scientific projects because they no longer meet 'agency priorities'"

Exclusive: NIH to terminate hundreds of active research grants
Studies that touch on LGBT+ health, gender identity and DEI in the biomedical workforce could be terminated, according to documents obtained by Nature.

We are working on launching an ALT DOGE website. It will soon feature a team page listing all of Elon’s staffers, our own wall of receipts (tracking the money he’s taking from America), and a section to help Americans keep tabs on the false claims on Doge’s website—which now exceed 52%.

Since the president has signed an EO making English the official language of the United States, here is the first non-English copy of the Declaration of Independence, printed in German just days after July 4, 1776. We have always been multilingual.
