I'm shaking almost too hard to type. I entered SLC airport and heard screams and cries for help. I could see people gathered around, watching. I sped over to discover this woman face down on the floor, four grown men pushing her down, while she cried "HELP ME" and pled for her child.

Trump hosted a dinner this week for donors to his White House ballroom project.
Now he's heading to Mar-a-Lago to host a $1 million-per-person dinner for his super PAC.
Meanwhile, 700,000 federal employees are furloughed, with nearly as many working without pay due to his government shutdown.

Trump's mass deportations aren't just pointlessly cruel.
His own Labor Department is now warning they are "threatening the stability of domestic food production and prices" for Americans.
We should be offering the people who feed us a path out of the shadows — not demonizing them.

Federal resources aren’t campaign tools. Secretary Kristi Noem's new TSA video crosses the line, violating the Hatch Act with blatant political messaging.

Undocumented immigrants paid an effective federal income tax rate of 5.27% in 2022.
That means they paid a higher effective tax rate than 5 of the richest Americans…and a higher effective tax rate than 55 mega corporations.

Law enforcement in L.A. used tear gas, flash grenades, and rubber bullets on protesters — one reporter was even hit live on air. These “less-lethal” weapons can blind, break bones, and even kill. They’re not crowd control — they’re tools of fear and intimidation.
What Tear Gas and Rubber Bullets Do to the Human Body
So-called “less-lethal” weapons like those that have been used against demonstrators in Los Angeles can cause severe, lasting harm like nerve or brain damage or blindness. They can also kill.
