The Trump Administration’s action to suspend all federal grants & loans will have a devastating impact on the health and well-being of millions of children, seniors on fixed incomes, and the most vulnerable people in our country.

It is a dangerous move towards authoritarianism.

NEW: My staff has confirmed reports that Medicaid portals are down in all 50 states following last night's federal funding freeze. This is a blatant attempt to rip away health care from millions of Americans overnight and will get people killed.

Raising ethical concerns 🙄 ya think?
President-elect Trump and his family on Friday started selling a new cryptocurrency token, a potentially lucrative new business that ethics experts assailed as a blatant effort to cash in on the presidency. www.nytimes.com/2025/01/18/u...

Q: Do you intend to continue selling products that benefit you personally while you're president?

Trump: I don't know if it benefitted... Where is it today?

Q: You made a lot of money, sir.

Trump: How much?

Q: Several billion.

Trump: That's peanuts for these guys *points to tech billionaires*

I wanted to share a story I wrote for NY Mag last month, about jailed January 6ers, and the cult-like community they'd formed behind bars.

The story starts with a scene from inside the DC jail, when J6ers watched Trump get shot on live TV.

Inside the Patriot Wing
January 6 rioters are running their jail block like a gang. They’re leaving more radicalized than ever.

Disturbing move that may fly under the radar - Trump removes members of PCLOB, the board the oversees privacy in the intelligence community, leaving it inoperable, at least for now.

Chris Murphy: "Political violence in this country just become mainstream. It is now a fact of life in America. If you commit an act of horrific violence in the name of the POTUS, that president will make sure you get away with it. That is fundamentally un-American."

I love this so much!

At the inauguration, Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson wore a distinctive collar adorned with cowrie shells, which are believed to offer protection from evil in African traditions.

This choice mirrors the late Justice Ginsburg’s practice of using collars to convey a message.
