Last night's Boston ICE Tea Party on the anniversary of the original Tea Party. We met before the Old South Meeting House where the Sons of Liberty met. Like them, we went down to Boston Harbor to dump tea (or, now, ice) into the water. No Kings, No Tarrifs, No Ice.

This is the second person with a green card who I've heard of being detained. How this man was/is being treated is wrong. www.nhpr.org/nh-news/2025...
Green card holder from New Hampshire 'interrogated' at Logan Airport, detained
Fabian Schmidt’s family said they are unsure of why he is being held. They said he has a recently renewed green card, and no active issues in court.

FDA nominee Martin Makary just dodged a simple, straightforward question from @murray.senate.gov on whether he would uphold nearly TWO DECADES of evidence that mifepristone is safe and effective. That tells you all you need to know about how he'll lead the agency if confirmed.

Please. No more speeches in the Senate about “freedom” until one Republican has the guts to stand up to Trump’s lies about Ukraine & Putin. Ukraine did not start this horrific war. Russia did. Zelensky isn't a dictator. Putin is. The US must not enter into an alliance with Putin.

Let's be clear, what Trump promised was not that he was going to come in and indiscriminately fire people and cut services.
He said he was going to lower the cost of everything from food to rent to energy costs.
He hasn't done any of that.

When Trump fires over a dozen inspectors general in one night—people who make sure our government stays on the straight & narrow—here’s what it signals to me:
Trump wants lawlessness throughout the government. He wants zero accountability for him or his billionaire friends.

I'm trying to rally Mainers to call Susan Collins and tell her to temporarily caucus with Dems to block everything until this DOGE insanity is ended. She's one of the very few who might be swayed to take action. Not likely, but doing nothing is guaranteed failure. We have to try.

This is unnecessarily cruel to those who need help and beneficial to the ultra-wealthy.
One GOP proposal takes aim squarely at parents raising children on their own by eliminating the “head of household” filing status to reap some $200B more in taxes over a decade from single parents and other adults caring for dependents on their own.
