If you, like me, are the parent of a neuro-atypical child dreading this autism press conference, please remember: These are the people hurting our kids. Not us. They are the ones stigmatizing and pathologizing them. They are the ones peddling untested science. And we should be very, very angry.

American soybean farmers don’t have a single order from China as they head into harvest season. China usually buys 25% of the entire crop.

Crisis looms for the farmers and there’s only one man responsible.

Gonna be real here, publishing something like this without seeing it recorded in written record or court document after the shooter’s arrest is wildly irresponsible in this current climate

Especially after the FBI’s chaotic goose chase produced two people who weren’t the shooter yesterday

you cannot report the supposed DOJ memo about bullets with “transgender ideology” without pointing out that there is no commonly understood meaning for that term and we have no idea what they claim the bullets *actually* said

US health insurers are raising insurance premiums by the most in 15 years.
Recall that Trump recently threatened 250% tariffs on pharmaceuticals. GOP lawmakers also chose not to extend the expanded premium tax credits that expire at the end of this year

The President of the United States is threatening to go to war with an American city.

This is not a joke. This is not normal.

Donald Trump isn't a strongman, he's a scared man. Illinois won’t be intimidated by a wannabe dictator.

My Democratic colleagues and I just left the state of Texas to break quorum and stop Trump’s redistricting power grab.

Trump is trying to rig the midterm elections right before our eyes. But first he’ll have to come through us.

It’s time to fight back.
