We can't fund public education but can bomb schools in Gaza & Iran We can't fund affordable housing but can build concentration camps & private prisons We can't fund school lunch but Hegseth can buy millions in steak, lobster, & king crab We've always had funds—we lack politicians with integrity

Irene Montero: No woman has ever been freed by American bombs or illegal aggression — Not in Syria. Not in Iraq. Not in Afghanistan. It will not happen in Iran either When they want to sell their oil wars, their wars for profit, their imperial wars — they hide behind women’s rights to justify them

ICE attacked an observer after they tailed a group of clergy on a spiritual pilgrimage. Our digital producer @sam.vp just so happened to be with the clergy on their journey. He spoke with the observer who was attacked and others who witnessed the assault.

NEW: Sean Duffy frequently calls safety his “top priority” as transportation secretary. But I spent months wading through regulatory notices and found something far different: that USDOT has been delaying, weakening and killing dozens of safety rules, many opposed by the transportation industry.🧵

Political violence is wrong. Gun violence is terrible. We can do something. Make it harder to commit gun violence. Thoughts and prayers help no one, the time for action was like, decades ago, but late is better than never.

We need a huge cross-section of society, engaging in diverse tactics- not just protest, but strikes, slowdowns, leaks, refusals, gumming up the works, ridiculous art, coordinated disruption, a whole range of things to make it impossible for those who intend evil and do harm to execute their plans.

Kamala Harris campaigned on making home care part of Medicare, which would’ve greatly eased the issue of caring for our parents. But Trump won so we not only didn’t get that, we’re getting devastation of nursing homes as well. This is going to ruin a lot of families.

Republican abortion bans are making it more deadly to be pregnant in America. Routine care is being denied, and women are being forced to nearly bleed to death before they can get help. www.propublica.org/article/texa...

Miscarriage Is Increasingly Dangerous for Women in Texas, Our Analysis Shows. Here’s How We Did It.
Using seven years of hospital discharge data, we found that the number of blood transfusions during emergency room visits for first-trimester miscarriage shot up by 54% since Texas banned abortion.

The Trump admin said the Everglades detention camp would be for the “worst of the worst.” Four men sent there so far have nothing on their record other than recent arrests for diving without a license, and were likely only arrested due to racial profiling, as Adam’s excerpt shows.
Due Process Concerns Mount For Immigration Attorneys Amid Widespread Profiling
Immigration attorney Amanda Velazquez has four clients in Alligator Alcatraz. Her clients, three from Nicaragua and one from Mexico, have no arrests other than those arrested for
driving without a license. They live in the Florida Keys and have asylum claims and work permits. Two of the clients managed to call her from the Alligator Alcatraz facility.

Ted Cruz cut $200M in funding for NOAA weather forecasting before deadly Texas floods. “More than 600 employees have exited the NWS amid a Trump administration push to shrink the government workforce, leaving many offices short-staffed of meteorologists and other support workers.”
motherjones.com
Sen. Ted Cruz stripped weather forecasting funds from Trump's megabill. Then the floods came.
Among other things, he removed $150 million slated to improve modeling, predictions, and public communications.

This is what the NY Times chose to highlight from the Netanyahu/Trump meeting, compared to Al Jazeera. You decide which is the important news.
Two headlines: from the NYTimes and Al Jazeera. "Netanyahu, Trump discuss forced transfer of Palestinians out of Gaza" and "Netanyahu releases letter nominating Trump for Nobel Peace Prize"

It's tough to refer to someone as a criminal if you've given them no due process to determine whether they're a criminal. Like if you get arrested and get a trial and are convicted of 34 felony counts. That's due process. You can call that guy a criminal.
