The Trump Admin's assault on working people continues.
They are now trying to restrict student loan assistance for many in critical professions, including nurses.
These Americans provide essential functions for all of us. This attack will make staffing shortages worse & harm everyone.

Trump, Hegseth, and Republicans think their meltdown shows strength, but it’s the opposite. They’re showcasing decorated Democratic veterans like Mark Kelly who make them look small and petty. They should pay more attention to lowering grocery prices than ridiculous threats of court-martialing.

I hope folks realize that between Trump, Kushner, Hegseth, Witkoff, Noem, RFK, Jr., Kash Patel, and Tulsi Gabbard, this country is almost entirely undefended.
Q: Have you heard this audio that Bloomberg has of Witkoff coaching the Russians on how to appeal to you?
TRUMP: That's a standard thing. He's gotta sell this to Ukraine, he's gonna sell Ukraine to Russia. That's what a dealmaker does. I haven't heard it but I heard it was standard negotiation.

The EPA just greenlit pesticides laced with PFAS “forever chemicals” for use on kids’ fruits and veggies. Instead of protecting families, the Trump-run agency is letting chemical companies spray cancer-linked toxins on everything from lettuce to potatoes.

The EPA is starting to allow the use of pesticides containing PFAS on food.
The move is part of an effort to roll back the regulation of what are called "forever chemicals" because they don't break down easily in the environment.
