THIS IS IMPORTANT! The Senate added a provision to the Big Betrayal Bill that would require bonds upfront for suing the government. This would essentially end citizens ability to hold the government accountable unless they were billionaires.

WIC. They are pausing WIC.
That's the Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants, and Children. Last time I checked (a while ago), every dollar spent on WIC produced over a dollar in savings *in the same fiscal year.* For most people, though, feeding infants and mothers is enough.

Not to be alarmist, but this is the most radical presidential action I've ever seen. He's straight up seizing Congress' budget power. What do laws matter if the mad king's whims dictate what gets enforced and where money goes?
It's not a policy memo - it's a revolution. Don't let it be a quiet one.

Trump is blowing up the Constitution and dismantling democracy before our eyes.
Freezing all federal grants is a radical transformation of the relationship between the President & Congress.
It’s illegal & dictatorial & Americans will die as a result.

Really interesting piece about why men are not going to college. celestemdavis.substack.com/p/why-boys-d...
Why aren't we talking about the real reason male college enrollment is dropping?
