Meanwhile, here’s how Ohio’s governor, a Republican, responded to today’s decision.

I agree with her. On just about all of this, but most importantly the conclusion. A vote for Susan Collins (which is ANY vote that isn't for Platner) is a vote for Trump to have two more SCOTUS picks. And that's where this is for me. And it sucks.

There are concentration camps in the United States in the year 2026. There are CONCENTRATION CAMPS in the United States in the year 2026. THERE ARE CONCENTRATION CAMPS IN THE UNITED STATES IN THE YEAR 2026.

House bill rolls back food aid for pregnant women, children www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

73% of mothers with kids under 18 are in the workforce. More than flowers or brunch, working moms need: -Paid family leave -Equal pay -Universal childcare -Universal healthcare (But get your mom flowers, too)

The number of food-stamp recipients is falling sharply—including by 50% in Arizona, according to state data—as new rules on who qualifies for SNAP benefits begin to be implemented.

ICYMI: The House Appropriations Committee voted 35-25 yesterday to advance a bill that would underfund WIC and cut fruit and vegetable benefits for almost 5.4 million toddlers, preschoolers, new moms & pregnant women in low-income families.

More of this, less of bombing other countries (From @acyn.bsky.social )

Every month is #MedicaidAwarenessMonth @GeorgetownCCF. Our series of fact sheets explains how Medicaid helps children, pregnant women, caregivers, people with disabilities, seniors, and families who otherwise could not afford health care.

Exclusive: The CDC delayed a report showing covid-19 vaccines reduced emergency visits and hospitalizations in healthy adults by half. The move raises concerns about the Trump administration downplaying vaccine benefits. https://wapo.st/4sZ3ZOt

This moron has no idea how much of a third rail this is. If he goes through with a public fight with Dunkin he will never live this down. In the words of my people "fuck ya motha."

Our taxes are paying for this instead of healthcare.

“I am somebody” shaped how millions of us saw ourselves as kids, including me. That message mattered. It still does. Rest in power, Jesse Jackson 🙏🏽

Roses are red, Violets are blue, HR 1 blew a hole in state budgets and healthcare too #healthpolicyvalentines

Today, the Trump administration repealed the endangerment finding: the ruling that served as the basis for limits on tailpipe emissions and power plant rules. Without it, we’ll be less safe, less healthy and less able to fight climate change—all so the fossil fuel industry can make even more money.

Ossoff: "You're seeing what I'm seeing, right? The president posting about the Obamas like a Klansman."

Heads are going to explode 💥 Cato Institute just nuked the lie. Immigrants have cut U.S. deficits by $14.5 TRILLION since 1994, slashing the national debt by a third. All that “immigrants are bleeding us dry” noise? Absolute bullshit. 1/3

Are we great yet? Are we safer?

In the wake of another horrific shooting death in MN by federal immigration officers -on top of wrongful detentions, violence, & fear there & across the country- it is appropriate for the Senate to use the budget process to push for critical protections for people & communities.

Special Counsel Jack Smith in his Opening Remarks:

🦠My latest: RFK's new CDC appointee shrugs off the potential loss of the U.S.’ measles-elimination status and deflects blame to other countries. “It’s just the cost of doing business with our borders being somewhat porous.” @kffhealthnews.org kffhealthnews.org/news/article...

Breaking: NEW YORK (AP) — Judge stops the Trump administration's freeze on child care and other social service funding for 5 states for now.

Just making sure that 2025 is definitely over

Horrified by the terrorist attack in Australia targeting Jewish people celebrating the first night of Hanukkah. Antisemitism has no place in this world. As so many light their candles tonight, we’ll come together to pray for a future where the light will triumph over darkness.

The most comprehensive global environment assessment ever undertaken calls for a new approach to jointly tackle the most pressing environmental issues including climate change and biodiversity loss that threaten over 1 million plant and animal species with extinction. https://to.pbs.org/3Kne3QE

According to a new court filing, the Trump administration has a six-page list of banned words that Head Start locations are forbidden from using when describing their programs. Among the censored words: "disability," "race," "women," "trauma," "Gulf of Mexico." Short thread with the full list. 🧵

Rep. Crockett’s Statement on the Supreme Court’s Ruling on Texas’s 2026 Map

Mark Kelly: "This president, when he says things like 'third world countries,' what is he really saying? I think what he's saying is he doesn't want brown people in our country. And that's disturbing. It's un-American."

Today, after months of requests, I toured the Broadview ICE Processing Facility. I want to share what I saw. The facility has no food vendor, no medical care, and detainees have to use toilets in the middle of shared cells. These are in no way suitable conditions to be holding anyone — period.

Exactly. Credit where credit is due. Good call out @jaketapper.bsky.social

Civil servants should be evaluated on their commitment to serving the American people, not based on which one of the President's executive orders they like most. The Trump-Vance admin’s loyalty questions on federal job applications are unconstitutional – so we're fighting back in court.

Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. personally directed the CDC to update its website to contradict its longtime guidance that vaccines don’t cause autism, he told The New York Times in an interview published Friday. https://cnn.it/3Xbt4rq

By moving to rescind the Biden Admin’s #PublicCharge rule, which largely restored long-standing policy after courts blocked a harmful rule put forward in the first Trump rule, the Administration is reigniting fear and confusion among people who are immigrants and their families.

New data: CBPP analyzed USDA’s contingency fund spending plan & found it is only going to release 2/3 of the funding they committed to in court filings, cutting families’ SNAP benefits far more than necessary, violating USDA’s own regulations & shortchanging millions of families.

Thank you Congressman Neguse for laying it plain.

Today’s rulings confirm what’s been clear all along: the Administration has been sitting on billions of available dollars that it is legally required to use to fund November benefits for the 1 in 8 Americans who need SNAP to afford their groceries.

Rep. Rosa DeLauro: "On the food stamp issue, the money is there! Let them not get away with saying they can't do it. Their political will isn't there to feed the people who rely on the SNAP program which is the most effective anti-hunger program in the USA."

Millions of Americans are already learning that their health insurance costs for 2026 are going way up. I want to hear from you so we can make this impossible for the GOP to ignore the consequences of their policies. If your premiums are going up, reply below and please share your story.

An Associated Press analysis finds that the number of Black students enrolling at many elite colleges has dropped in the two years since the Supreme Court banned affirmative action in admissions.

The Administration is legally required to use contingency reserves to fund November benefits for the 1 in 8 Americans who need #SNAP to afford groceries, despite USDA Sec. Rollins’ claim that the Administration is unable to do so. My statement: www.cbpp.org/press/statem...

Los Angeles came out in droves. #NoKings

An astonishingly large crowd! Chicago

This is what democracy looks like. #NoKings

The hilarity continues, let's laugh the bastards out of power.

The following is REAL footage from Portland, 2025. Viewer discretion is advised.

Republicans have had 15 years to come up with an Obamacare replacement plan. They still haven’t

I always pay attention to what stories People Magazine and other consumer media outlets cover. That's how you can tell that something has broken through the usual political and news bubbles. This horrific Chicago story has broken through. people.com/ice-agents-o...
