The corrupt Supreme Court gave the green light for the Trump administration to keep targeting people based on the color of their skin and the language they speak. This overtly racist policy hurts immigrants and American citizens alike. It cannot be allowed to stand.

Hey New Yorkers, mark your calendars for Monday, September 8th. We’re all calling Sen. Gillibrand & Schumer to tell them to draw a line in the sand and oppose any government funding deal that continues Trump’s healthcare cuts or funds his administration’s lawlessness!

Today is Purple Heart Day, a time to honor our servicemembers for their bravery in service of our country. The Purple Heart – one of the oldest awards in the military for those wounded or killed in action – recognizes sacrifice and service that most of us can only imagine making for our country.

Some of the panelists invited by the FDA to discuss SSRIs and pregnancy claimed that antidepressants don't work at all and depression goes away on its own. One suggested that depression was not an illness, but rather a product of “women just naturally experiencing their emotions more intensely.”

I don’t think anyone is prepared for what they just did w/ ICE. This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined. It is setting up to make what’s happening now look like child’s play. And people are disappearing.

JD Vance said it himself, the Medicaid cuts, the hospital closures, the deficit hike, it’s all “immaterial” so long as Trump gets the money he needs to expand ICE operations everywhere and imprison hundreds of thousands of “illegals” (a definition soon to include the right’s political opponents).

If the bloated ICE budget gets passed in Trump's Big Ugly Bill, expect more concentration camps, more militarized vehicles patrolling your neighborhood, & more untrained agents with weapons assaulting random innocent citizens in the street for the crime of not being white. This bill is Anti-American

ICE just arrested Brad Lander, the NYC Comptroller and one of the leading candidates for Mayor, without grounds. He was conducting routine immigration court work, escorting individuals from hearings. He asked ICE for their warrant - well within his legal rights. This is political intimidation.

This corrupt Murder Bill isn't just coming after people on Medicaid and Medicare, they're also using it to erode bodily autonomy (even for adults.) Trans healthcare and reproductive healthcare are also at risk of being cut. This would have consequences that branch into private insurance as well.
