The response to the proposed OMB federal financial assistance rule has been incredibly impressive. But our work is not done. Now that you’ve submitted your comment, it’s time to take the next steps. Because Vought has shown with prior proposed rules that he will not listen to our comments.

Lorenzo Salgado Araujo was murdered by ICE. His three sons called him “El mundo entero” — the whole world. They watched as their whole world died in a video posted on Facebook. Lorenzo was our neighbor and fellow Texan. He deserves justice.

As usual, Mbappé is right on target. During my efforts to advance legislation that reins in the rampant and unrestricted sports betting industry, I've met with many individuals and families harmed by this addiction. It's past time we respond to this growing crisis and pass my SAFE Bet Act.

Context implies that it sheds new light on the basis for his action. We don’t know if he had 7 beers or shots of tequila. That would also be information but won’t add context to him being drunk. Just like the text doesn’t add context to her saying no. It’s truly far from a crucial detail.

I’m sorry to be crude but even if Platner’s accuser texted “I really need an orgasm” to later say don’t come and end up in a physical altercation while he’s on top of her and she’s saying no, the content of that text isn’t “context.” It’s a detail, a fact. But it doesn’t *contextualize* anything.

cosign. the problem here is that Trump started an insane, catastrophic, illegal war, and after you do that all of the options are bad. that is not an argument against a deal, it's an argument for not starting senseless horrifying wars

This is why I was so frustrated by some of the other candidates in my race that argued for bipartisanship as some kind of panacea for all that is wrong with Congress. One held up Thomas Massie as an example because he worked with Ro Khanna on Epstein—two weeks later he was primaried out of his seat.
