If a foreign adversary snuck into our Federal budget and cut science research and education the way weβre cutting it ourselves β strategically undermining Americaβs long-term health, wealth, and security β we would likely consider it an act of war.

I was denied permission to host a roundtable at the Puget Sound VA to hear from women veterans about their health care.
I have NEVER been outright denied from having open & honest conversations with VAβuntil this administration.
I'm demanding an answer from VA Secretary, Doug Collins.

DOGE Is Far Short of Its Goal, and Still Overstating Its Progress
Elon Musk now says his group will produce only 15 percent of the savings it promised. But even that estimate is inflated with errors and guesswork.

Under Trump, ICE has become a weapon. Protesters are arrested. Immigrants are disappeared. Kilmar wasn't a threat, he was a legal resident who fit a profile. Mahmoud wasn't silenced for violence-he was targeted. This is an American Gestapo. (1/3) #FreeKilmar #DefendDueProcess #BringThemBack

Today, weβre voting on what Republicans are calling the βSAVE Actββbut letβs be real, itβs a straight-up voter suppression bill.
They are literally trying to make it harder for millions of Americans to exercise their right to vote.
Iβm voting NOβhell no, actually.

Fascists want normal people to feel alone. They want us all to feel at their mercy. But what #handsoff demonstrated is that we are not mere victims of political events. Democracy is a participatory sport, and we are active participants.
