Medicare for All means Medicare for ALL — not some, or a few, or most. Health care is a human right. Every other major country recognizes that. It's long past time the United States does as well.

ICYMI: There's a hidden provision in Trump & the Republican Party's 'big, *ugly* bill' that, if enacted, would bar courts from enforcing contempt citations for violations of injunctions or temporary restraining orders? This would effectively allow Trump to ignore court orders without consequence😳

The Haslams’ quid-pro-quo campaign donations?
We taxpayers would be fools to believe that the Haslams' large campaign donations to GOP Statehouse leaders like House Speaker Matt Huffman and his issue priorities are simply coincidental as the House backs $600 million in state bonds for the Haslams' Brook Park stadium, writes Jeanne Melvin of Columbus in a letter to the editor.

The trauma this family has suffered at the hands of this administration is unconscionable www.nbcnews.com/politics/imm...
From an NBC News article by Nnamdi Egwuonwu about Kilmar Abrego Garcia’s meeting with Senator Chris Van Hollen: “The vice president also denied a request from Van Hollen that day to facilitate a phone call between Abrego Garcia and his wife, Jennifer Vasquez Sura, who says she has not spoken to him since he was transferred to the Central American facility.

Sura said Thursday night that Van Hollen's meeting gave her hope.

‘My children and my prayers have been answered. The efforts of my family and community in fighting for justice are being heard, because I now know that my husband is alive. God is listening, and the community is standing strong,’ she said in a statement.”

🚨URGENT—Despite the Supreme Court declaring that it would be illegal to deport people under the Alien Enemies Act without giving them a meaningful chance to seek judicial review, the Trump admin is reportedly about to send a group of Venezuelans detained in Texas to El Salvador in a matter of hours!

BREAKING: The ACLU's Lee Gelernt tells me his group has heard from immigration lawyers that a group of Venezuelan migrants at the Bluebonnet ICE detention facility in Texas have been notified they are at imminent risk of being expelled under the 1798 Alien Enemies Act.

There are no tariffs on thrift store clothes, and if 1 million of us bought our next piece of clothing from a thrift store, we'd keep millions of pounds of textiles out of landfills, slash our carbon footprint, and funnel millions of dollars back into local jobs and nonprofits.
