Antisemitism breeds extremism, cruelty, and conspiracy theories. Equating Jewish people with Israel's far-right government inevitably leads to antisemitism. It leads to innocent people getting hurt, more Jewish organizations being targeted, *and* Netanyahu using fear to gain more control.

I don't want to see a single person saying this was warranted by the carnage in Gaza, that this was for Palestinians. I am a Palestinian person and I do not want senseless acts of terror committed in my name. I don't want Jewish organizations to need extra security because of fear of violence.

Unbelievably horrified by this attack in Boulder. We don’t know the full story of the attacker, but no matter what it is, let me be clear: Senseless, antisemitic attacks do not help Palestinians, Jews, or Israelis. Committing terror attacks against people standing for hostages is disgusting.

Not a single DOGE cut was codified into law. Not a single fraud charge has been filed. The cuts that were made were done through illegal executive orders. Most will likely be overturned. DOGE WAS THE FRAUD

NEW: NPR says it's suing Trump over his executive order that aimed to end federal funding for NPR and PBS — arguing the order violates the Constitution and the First Amendment's protections for freedom of speech.

Trump cut staffing at the VA, and now Dallas vets are waiting months for care. Surgeries are being delayed. Vets are being left without mental health care. I’ve called for an investigation—because if you claim to support veterans, act like it.

Every single House Republican should be targeted for defeat at the ballot box in 2026. No Republican seat in the House should go unchallenged. Let’s just say that we should be thinking in the range of a 2010-magnitude electoral shock. Robert Hubbell

White House officials wanted to put federal workers ‘in trauma.’ It’s working.
Federal workers describe struggling with panic attacks, depression, suicidal thoughts. “Why doesn’t anyone care?”

We should be investing in rural communities and making them better places to build a life & raise a family - not shutting down rural hospitals by choking off their funding. Saving rural hospitals is one more reason to call your Representative and speak out against this GOP attempt to cut Medicaid.
cbsnews.com
Hundreds of rural hospitals are at risk of closing, threatening critical care
Hospital officials told CBS News the closure was driven by the same factors that have closed other rural hospitals: low reimbursement rates.

Millions of Americans rely on Medicaid and Medicare when they get sick & not have to worry about going bankrupt. But Republicans want to slash these programs to give a tax break to the wealthy like Musk. Call your R Rep and tell them to vote no and to #StopTheBillionaireBailout

Stephen Miller says they are “actively looking at” suspending the writ of habeas corpus, which is only allowed when the US has been invaded or during an insurrection, which would not allow people to challenge their incarceration in court if they are arrested and detained.
