While Kristi Noem’s out here blaming everyone but herself, here’s her own April press release bragging about clawing back $882M in disaster resilience grants. The kind that could’ve helped in Texas. They’d rather wage culture wars than actually protect human lives.

My heart is with everyone impacted by the devastating floods across Texas—those who have lost loved ones & those still searching.

Many of the impacted families are from right here in Dallas. We’re mourning with you and praying for comfort, healing, & peace in the days ahead.

TX-30 stands with you.

It’s just wrong. 😑
The Republican reconciliation bill which makes massive cuts to Medicaid in order to pay for huge tax breaks for billionaires is not just bad public policy.

It is not just immoral.

It is a death sentence for struggling Americans.

Oh, so now we care about what people post on social media?

Wild how student visas are getting paused for a vibe check, but some of y’all have been posting red flags for years and still got a security clearance.

This week, the Secretary of Homeland Security showed she did not even know what the term "habeas corpus" meant.

It was a truly pathetic moment, but also truly representative of the embarrassing ignorance of this administration and their lack of respect for the rule of law.

Thieves!
Trump’s “big, beautiful bill”? It’s bullshit.

It’s a straight-up scam that abandons working families and rigs the system even more for the rich.

They’re slashing jobs and gutting the very resources that people need to survive—while calling it “fiscal responsibility.”

While folks were wrapping up their weekends, House Republicans were sneaking through Trump’s tax scam—one that slashes Medicaid, cuts food assistance, and makes the rich richer.

If this bill passes all the way through, 13.7 million people will lose their healthcare coverage.

The US desperately needs more doctors, engineers & highly educated workers. But we’re telling students that if they want a higher education, they have to go into debt.

Other countries understand how important it is to invest in their young people. We should be doing the same.

Elon’s lil DOGE tried to roll up on GAO like they run Congress.

Let me be clear: GAO works for US—not Trump or Elon.

DOGE can’t shrink what it doesn’t control. Stay in your lane.

What we’re watching this week is the President of the United States using his public office to personally enrich himself. He’s using the office we put him in to take bribes from foreign governments.

It’s everything our Founders feared. And we’re letting it all happen right before our eyes.

Walter Cronkite, who was described as the most trusted man in America, once said:

“Freedom of the press is not just important to democracy, it is democracy.”

Paramount: Stand up for a free press and our democracy. Do not capitulate to Trump's dangerous move to authoritarianism.

There it is. His executive order is a worthless piece of paper
The Public Broadcasting Act of 1967 created the Corporation for Public Broadcasting. I reread it today; nothing in the law allows a president to defund PBS and NPR. In fact, Congress specifically sought to insulate public media from political pressure.
