This is EXACTLY what I said earlier today. Despite the Supreme Court decision, birthright citizenship remains in jeopardy Trump is a racist who hates immigrants. He's said it many times, in 1,000 different ways. That's why Stephen Miller works for him And he needs to flip just one more vote

JD Vance: I would love it if Democrats were willing to work with us on lowering housing prices. We could have some real bipartisan compromise. (Trump is currently refusing to sign the bipartisan housing affordability bill)

I love this. The Obamas honoring Nancy Pelosi with a garden in her name is so well deserved. Without Nancy Pelosi, there would be no Affordable Care Act.

After killing one person without warning or trial, the US government let two other survivors die a horrible death by drowning after clinging to wreckage. Despite knowing this was a possible outcome, the US government appears to have deliberately chosen not to stage search and rescue ahead of time.

It feels strange that humanity dreams of finding life on distant planets while forests here vanish every day. A forest takes decades to grow, to cool the air, protect wildlife, and create peace—yet only moments to destroy. The most important world is the one we already inhabit.
