Daniel Dale debunks the claim that Dems want to give free health care to illegal immigrants.
- Undocumented immigrants can't get Obamacare / Medicaid
- Emergency care is already guaranteed by Reagan-era law

BREAKING: A federal judge has blocked the Trump administration from firing dozens of intelligence agency staffers who recently worked on DEI issues. Judge Anthony Trenga, a GWBush appointee, said they're entitled to appeal within their agencies & seek reassignment to other jobs.

Pink fire retardant is widely used to tame wildfires each year because it can slow flames in ways that water can’t. But it also comes with a toxic burden, because they contain heavy metals and other chemicals that are harmful to human health and the environment.

What is USAID, the government agency targeted by Trump and Elon Musk?
Elon Musk called USAID a criminal organization that should “die.” Proponents say it’s a key arm of U.S. influence that, if destroyed, “cannot be easily rebuilt.”

Less than 1% of all fentanyl seizures occurred at the U.S.-Canada border last year.
“The tariffs are being imposed under the authority of the International Emergency Economic Powers Act; officials cited concerns about fentanyl entering the United States through Mexico and Canada, with ingredients from China.”
