WTF?!? Border Czar Tom Homan claimed that ICE and Border Patrol agents don’t need probable cause to detain people they suspect are undocumented, saying they can do so based on factors like physical appearance. This is straight-up racial profiling, not law enforcement.

When Americans raised concerns about RFK Jr.'s anti-vaccine views, he said he was "not gonna take away vaccines from anybody."
But now he's taking them away from millions of mommas and babies.
Vaccine recommendations should be based on science, not RFK Jr.'s political agenda.

This is absolutely terrible news.
With the shifting regulatory climate (i.e., antivax ratfuckery), Moderna has withdrawn their application for their eagerly anticipated COVID-flu combo vaccine. This vaccine offered better protection than getting each shot separately.

Donald Trump isn’t just illegally removing U.S. citizens from the country without due process.
He’s illegally removing U.S. citizens who are literal children undergoing care for cancer.

If you think it’ll stop at Columbia and Harvard, you’re wrong. If you think it won’t go beyond universities to infiltrate all schools, you’re wrong. If you think it won’t demand compliance at media, medical, and non-profit organizations, you’re wrong. Fascism is here. Fight it.

Normally, if bad actors hijacked our government systems with an intent on crippling them, which would directly bring harm to American citizens, we’d be pretty comfortable labeling that as terrorism.
But right-wing billionaires have you believing that it’s called “patriotism.”

andrew johnson was impeached for violation of the tenure of office act. in the scheme of things, was that a huge deal? not really. the actual issue was that johnson was trying to scuttle any attempt to reconstruct the former confederate states on an egalitarian basis and *that* was intolerable

USAID matters. I've often disagreed with their strategy and choices, but their work saves more lives than any philanthropy can. It's a rounding error in the federal budget, and one of the best things we do as a country. To see it destroyed overnight by one unelected man is an unmitigated horror.
