Trump's attacks on our public lands are unprecedented in American history. These lands belong to us. He has no right to sell them off to private developers.

WATCH: A group of ICE goons beat a man they were detaining after they'd already wrestled him to the floor in Naples, Florida on Wednesday night. Bystanders began to yell that they were filing when the ICE goons punched the man repeatedly.

Fire stations are paying more and waiting longer for new trucks. Why? A few big corporations bought up the fire truck industry and jacked up costs. That's not right. Corporate greed can't come before public safety.

ICE went to a nightclub in Memphis around 1 AM and reportedly loaded more than 100 people onto buses and vans.
We are at the point where federal immigration agents can descend on a space in the middle of the night, detain masses of people, and leave families scrambling to figure out where their loved ones were taken.
This is what authoritarianism looks like.

We need to protect Social Security for the next generation.
The Social Security payroll tax is capped at $184,500 in income. So if you're a nurse or construction worker, you pay Social Security on 100% of your income. But if you're a lawyer raking in millions, you only pay Social Security on a tiny fraction of your income. That is not right.

Last year, Donald Trump and Republicans expanded a tax break that allows the ultra-wealthy to write off as much as 100% of their profit on stock holdings. That one move will cost taxpayers over $17 BILLION. Americans deserve better. I'm pressing for answers.

President of MIT not mincing words today in @statnews.com www.statnews.com/2026/05/27/s...
So let me say it as clearly as I can: Without basic scientific research, supported by the kind of farsighted public investment that allows large-scale, undirected, curiosity-driven inquiry, the scientific pipeline will run dry.
In daily life, people may not feel the effects right away, or even in 10 years. But we will feel it. And when someone we love needs therapies that could have emerged but didn't or when other countries now
investing in science can launch new science-based industries or run their societies on vast resources of fusion energy or reap the benefits of quantum computing power or advanced medical breakthroughs, America will wish it sustained its leadership in scientific research here and now.
Sally Kornbluth is the president of MIT.
