Gael Gomez and his family are all but certain to leave the country this week, upending the lives they’ve built in D.C.

More Than 170 U.S. Citizens Have Been Held by Immigration Agents. They’ve Been Kicked, Dragged and Detained for Days.
The government does not track how often immigration agents grab citizens. So ProPublica did. Our tally — almost certainly incomplete — includes people who were held for days without a lawyer. And near...

If you saw "Trump Rx" and immediately thought "Trump Steaks" and other grifts, well, you're right. You will not even be able to buy anything on Trump Rx; it's just a funnel to existing corporate patient assistance sites that don't touch the structural factors that keep drug prices high. From me:
‘TrumpRx’ Is Another Pretend Solution for High Drug Prices
The proposed government website will just refer people to the drug companies, which use direct-to-consumer pricing to distract from continued high profits.

This is the Trump thug who wants to deny due process rights to everyone else. Turns out he was being investigated for taking $50k cash in an illegal scheme, but Trump’s DOJ dropped it.

This double standard and corruption is infecting our justice system.
Tom Homan was investigated for accepting $50,000 from undercover FBI agents. Trump's DOJ shut it down.
The FBI and Justice officials closed the investigation, which a Justice Department appointee had called a “deep state” probe in early 2025.

TikTok will be co-owned by China and Trump allies, Paramount was sold to a pro-Trump billionaire who's also set to buy Warner Bros, X is owned by an apartheid-bred fascist, WaPo and Meta are owned by Trump-cowering billionaires, and Murdoch owns the Fox empire. Here's why media has a liberal bias.

my wife and her whole team lost their jobs earlier this year at a Seattle nonprofit hospital due to Trump medicaid cuts

Republican policy is literally killing people by making already shaky health care MUCH worse

dems should follow my Senator's lead and hammer this subject every single day
Hospitals across Washington state are being forced to lay off staff, reducing services because of GOP health care cuts.

This is real. And it’s happening because Republicans chose tax cuts for billionaires over health care for our families.

I'm fighting to repeal these cuts.

Alaska vowed to resolve the murders of Indigenous people.

But when one nonprofit asked state law enforcement officials for a fundamental piece of data — a list of Indigenous murders they’d investigated — the state said no.

I spent two days with Platner and, as you’ll read, was as impressed by his theory of power as I was by his policies. I think it’s FAR more important than the “how do you talk to Trump voters” question.

When an insurance company is deciding whether to pay for your medical treatment, it generates a file, which should contain all records associated with your case, including documents explaining why the claim was denied.

You have a right to see this file.
