This is a shocking finding and government needs to act. It’s high time we had dietary advice that follows the science not Big Food lobbying. But we also need a proper definition of what ultra-processed foods are, one that focuses on high in fat, sugar and salt.

WOW. A new PBS News/NPR/Marist poll has Democrats up 14 points on the generic ballot, 55% to 41%. This is their largest lead since 2017, a year before they picked up over 40 House seats.

It really is disgusting that Trump can insult, berate, single out, threaten, and demean female reporters on a daily basis for asking fair and legitimate questions and you can’t find a single Republican woman in Congress to say it is inappropriate behavior.

Trump suggests Khashoggi had it coming: "You're mentioning someone that was extremely controversial. A lot of people didn't like that gentleman that you're talking about. Whether you like him or didn't like him, things happen. But he knew nothing about it. You don't have to embarrass our guest."

15 people have been evacuated from a village in Romania after a Russian drone attacked a gas ship by the Ukrainian shore.
There is a risk of an explosion, so people were brought to safety.
Russia is a threat to Europe.

Great news. This is what an ICE agent looks like in a mugshot. Meet Gerardo Rodriguez, 45, of Temecula, courtesy of the Riverside County Sheriff’s Office. Arrested for "illegally detaining a minor at gunpoint while off duty last week." 🧵

A strong immigration system doesn't need to be a cruel one.
It shouldn't need saying - but refugees & asylum seekers are real people, fleeing war and persecution.

I stand with unionized Starbucks workers, who are on strike across the country right now for better wages and working conditions.
Until Starbucks strikes a fair bargain with its workers and ceases its union-busting behavior, I'll continue to boycott the company.

"..they quickly figured out that he wasn’t really in control. Almost ¼ of the FBI’s 13,000 agents are arresting undocumented immigrants, not historically a focus for the Bureau. Hundreds more are in cities Trump has targeted, despite the fact that violent crime in these cities was on the decline"

We see this in Trump’s America too. The far right hate cities because they prove multiculturalism works
The truth must hurt for them – because London has once again been crowned the greatest city in the world.
