Hating on “Big Pharma”? Cool, it’s a $1.6 trillion regulated industry. But hang on…the $6.3 trillion wellness industry sells you mushroom tea, dewormers, crash diets, and alkaline water—no regulations, no oversight. But hey, it’s ‘natural,’ right?

I spent the day at the ICE Detention centers where Rümeysa Öztürk and Mahmoud Khalil are being unjustly detained. They've been taken thousands of miles away from home and denied due process.
I’m here to call for their immediate release and make it known that they haven’t been forgotten.

If they can ship Kilmar Abrego Garcia to a foreign prison—accused of no crime, with no trial—they can do it to anyone.

District Court for the District of Columbia that the Trump administration must unfreeze foreign assistance payments to USAID and State Department grantees.

The Trump admin's response, filed by Pete Marocco, the new Director of the Office of Foreign Assistance at State, states that the administration will continue its freeze on funds for both USAID and State:
18. Consistent with its constitutional, statutory, regulatory, and instrument-specific authorities, and pursuant to the terms of the TRO stating that Defendants may still "enforce[e] the erms of contracts or grants," USAID intends to continue its case-by-case review of existing contracts and grants. Following its review process and consistent with the terms and conditions of the relevant instruments, USAID intends to terminate instruments that the PTDO Administrator determines are inconsistent with the national interests or USAID's mission.

And State:

24. As described below, State broadly paused or terminated foreign assistance awards and foreign assistance payments in a manner consistent with its legal authorities and relevant contract or grant instruments. Almost immediately, however, Secretary Rubio issued a number of programmatic waivers of the pause that permitted broad categories of foreign aid to flow where consistent with foreign policy priorities of the United States. Other, more targeted waivers followed. Given these waivers, Plaintiffs' characterization of a "blanket" pause is inaccurate.
