The first time Charlie Chaplin used his voice in a film, he wielded it to forcefully condemn the rising forces of fascism around the globe.

NEW: A House committee just advanced a bill to cut hundreds of billions from Medicaid that would devastate the lives of disabled people and throw millions off the program.
The bill could get a full House vote as soon as next week. Tell your representative NOW to reject these cuts.

2 options here. The DOGE device was hacked. And I don't think I need to explain the 2nd.

WOW. Rep. @jayapal.house.gov says CBP's internal affairs department found that a Chinese woman who had overstayed a visa was arrested by Border Patrol and hung herself in a cell. She wasn't found for two hours—even though the records reported multiple welfare checks (suggesting records falsified?).

🚨UPDATE: Rümeysa Öztürk has now suffered three separate asthma attacks while in DHS custody.
She has not received her required asthma medications—a violation of her fundamental right to medical care.
This is cruelty, it is neglect, and it is a damning moral and legal failure.
