The Supreme Court has unanimously ruled the Trump regime must facilitate the return of a Maryland man wrongly deported to El Salvador.

Amidst all of the horrors of the Trump administration, one stands above the rest: the trafficking of 270 men to El Salvador's CECOT prison.

A recent analysis found that when Trump imposed tariffs during his first term, companies who contributed to Republicans were more likely to be granted tariff exemptions.
Trump's corporate donors won't shoulder the cost of his trade wars.
It's crony capitalism at its worst.

There are no "illegal protests" under the First Amendment.
This is just fascism brought to us by an ignorant old man drunk on power.

I joined my Democratic colleagues today to defend the 86,000 people in our community who rely on MediCal and the 16,900 who rely on CalFresh. House Republicans want to gut these programs to pay for tax cuts for billionaires. I won’t stand for it.

One of the remarkable things about #NIH is how rigorously its grants, research, and employees are reviewed. NIH science and scientists are held to a high standard by external reviewers — via study sections and councils, or BSC/site visit reviewers. And the reviews have teeth. 🧪
I’ve served as one of several invited external reviewers for evaluation of an intramural division. The process was rigorous, detailed, and we external reviewers were not afraid to give sharp feedback. Program leadership heard it earnestly; the quality of the intramural science was extraordinary.

2) This is all to give more $$ to BILLIONAIRES
