This is what happens when politics overrides medicine.

People lose coverage. Hospitals close. Care gets delayed. The sick get sicker.

Science is not an opinion.
Health care is not a luxury.
Lives are on the line.

Keep this in mind when reading the nice articles about the diplomatic tone of Marco Rubio’s remarks in Munich. The deaths of millions and millions of people are on him.
I still think the best way to think of the ending of US AID is as the single worst genocide committed by any one US presidential administration.

even given all the horrific things the US has done, it's not really that close. 750k dead already; expected 14 million.
this is exactly why I am absolutely not willing to overlook anyone who was once “advocating for ending USAID” as merely committing a little oopsie-daisy-booboo, by the way

A reminder that Dog-Killer Noem didn't understand habeas corpus.

Not that her lack of understanding would inform her actions.
As federal immigration agents surge into communities and detain people, the number of habeas petitions — claims challenging those detentions — has increased.

We are tracking the historic rise in these cases, which are overwhelming the court system ⤵️

I 💛 this man.

No child should fear the people meant to protect them.
So he showed up.
Not as an “activist.”
As a neighbor.
As a citizen.
As someone who said enough.

If your heart is pounding, let your first step be the same. Show up.
We, the people have the power.

When people around you don’t know why the government is partially shut down, read them this story. Tell them the government is partially shut down because Republicans insist on THIS continuing and are willing to sacrifice FEMA and the TSA over it.

ICE stopped a U.S. citizen, smashed her car window, dragged her into the street, and tossed her passport after reading it. Agents hid behind masks, refused to identify themselves, then walked away once they decided she “didn’t count” as deportable prey.

Voter fraud is not a real problem.

Our problem isn’t non-citizens illegally voting in our elections. The real problem is American citizens not voting in our elections.

And our even bigger problem is voter suppression.

When will Republicans, veterans organizations, & retired military officers speak up about this? No president in the history of the Republic has done this. Yet Trump, Vance, & Hegseth do it constantly. It betrays the most important core value of our military-no partisan politics.

Because it would be too unfair to Cameroon.
So I just read this

“The Trump administration clandestinely deported nine individuals to Cameroon, despite U.S. court protections and their lack of origin from this country”

and am wondering if they can do this without repercussions why can’t we do this to the Trump administration?

Remember: Everyone who says that athletes or artists should stay out of politics does not just fail to understand that in moments like these politics infuses every aspect of every life in our country--they are actually part of the problem. Silence is a position. Silence serves autocrats and thugs.

He can say whatever he wants and issue whatever executive order he wants, but he has no legitimate power to actually do anything like this.

Panicked posts like this one give the impression that he can make good on his threats. He can't.
This may be the most dangerous development of all. It will give Trump fake legal pretext to reject Nov election results. American democracy has like 9 months left.
