ICE arrested Elsy Noemi Berrios without cause or due process, damaging her car and traumatizing her family in the process. America cannot be a country where this is considered acceptable.
Call Congress to demand due process: 202-224-3121

Just FYI republicans tried to block this, obviously.
As a Biden administration ban on so-called “junk fees” took effect Monday, Ticketmaster said it would start displaying the full price of a ticket as soon as consumers begin shopping.
A Biden-era 'junk fee' rule is now in effect. Ticketmaster says it will display fees more clearly

"On Tyranny" is a #1 NYT bestseller again. I wish the moment were different. But I’m glad the book is useful. And grateful for all the kind words about putting the 20 lessons to work.

We stopped using line at the gallery years ago for this reason. Friendly reminder to not use them and shop local to avoid more boxes they sell
Much of the cardboard and paper goods strewn about our homes are sold by a single private company, with its name, Uline, stamped on the bottom.
Few Americans know that a multibillion-dollar fortune made on those ubiquitous products fuels far-right candidates across the country.

That Cardboard Box in Your Home Is Fueling Election Denial
A previously unreported boom in profits for the shipping supply giant Uline has provided the funds for a deeply conservative Midwestern family to bankroll anti-democracy causes around the country.

If you didn’t know there are two special elections for house seats coming up in Florida. These are districts Trump won but a win by a dem would be huge!! Even a loss with a big vote pick up would be big.

2 key special elections can shift power in Congress + protect our democracy. These races will help determine whether we can stop dangerous policies and ensure fair representation for all.

Sadly all the NIH and university research funding that’s “wasteful” according to Elon and Trump and they are stopping will cripple so many new treatments and won’t be something we can just easily start again. So senseless.
From 2010 to 2016 (latest data I have ), NIH research contributed to EVERY drug approved by the FDA

Small good news for now
The NEA will drop a highly criticized requirement for applicants not to use federal funds “to promote gender ideology” after the ACLU sued the agency last week.

However, the agency could still reject projects seen as non-compliant with Trump’s “gender ideology” mandate.

NEW: The USDA acknowledged that over the weekend, it accidentally fired "several" agency employees who are working on the federal government's response to the H5N1 avian flu outbreak.
The agency adds it is trying to quickly reverse the firings.
