The Trump admin has decided it will no longer commemorate December 1st, World AIDS Day. Fed employees have been instructed to refrain from publicly promoting World AIDS Day through any communication channels, including social media, media engagements, speeches, or other public-facing messaging.

The New York Times' story about Trump calling for the execution of members of Congress ran on Page 16 today, with an itty-bitty promo on the front about halfway down the page.
No wonder Trump thinks he can get away with anything.

JD's family has spent $35M on vacations.

Kash Patel used a $60M FBI jet to go on a date.

Trump spent $98M to golf for 24% of the days of this term.

ALL WITH OUR TAX DOLLARS.

But you think a single mom getting $6 a day for SNAP is the problem?

Teen Vogue did some great journalism around immigration detention and enforcement. Sounds like corporate has now killed that off.

The media landscape shrinks even further.
I was laid off from Teen Vogue today along with multiple other staffers, and today is my last day.

certainly more to come from me when the dust has settled more, but to my knowledge, after today, there will be no politics staffers at Teen Vogue.

OBAMA: It's fair to say that 80% of the world's problems involve old men hanging on who are afraid of death and insignificance, and they won't let go. They build pyramids, and they put their names on everything. They get very anxious about it.

Holy fuck. One gets inured to insanely brutal ice videos. But this one stands out. He just throws this woman into the wall basically
I was back at 26 Federal Plaza today, where an ICE agent violently threw this bereft woman to the ground in front of her kids. She had not touched him. She did not pose any threat. She had to be taken to the hospital. (🎥: Elias Eliahu)

The US Administration has proposed an astronomical tax on lawful, high-skill immigrant workers.

The economic evidence is clear about what Americans can expect: Less innovation, less entrepreneurship, lower productivity.

A diminished future.

BERNIE SANDERS: Yeah. You know why? Because you're cutting $150b for rural hospitals, you're putting $50b back. That's not an infusion. That's a loss of $100b.

Since the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade, Republicans have been working to restrict abortion access across the states. Leading these efforts is the Republican Attorneys General Association.

A financial disclosure filed on August 8 reveals that RAGA's contributors include major corporations.

1. Since Roe was overturned, Republican AGs have engaged in aggressive legal campaign to limit abortion not only in their states, but across the nation.

These efforts are being financed by major American corporations — including CVS, United HealthCare, Airbnb, and the parent company of Coachella

This is Ohio’s democracy in action.

On Aug. 9, thousands lined 8 miles of High Street, hand in hand — for Medicaid, immigrants, truth, and justice. Against corruption, cruelty, and lies.

Ohio doesn’t sit down.
We link up.
We fight back.
And we’re just getting started.
