AN AGENT FOR MURDER: This felon is not worthy of a Peace Prize. A man who wages war on his own people, who bribes world leaders for accolades, and who demands the glory of peace while spreading death — is the opposite of what a Nobel stands for.
AN AGENT FOR MURDER
You can’t bribe your way to peace. You earn it through humanity and Trump has none

The Trump administration wants the courts to grant them free rein to use immigration enforcement powers to crack down on free speech.

That's not how the First Amendment works. We're fighting back.

Trump is using our tax dollars to buy Argentine pesos to bail out the country's failing libertarian economy.

My friend Rohit Chopra explains how this will hurt struggling Americans here at home.

It’s about time some red state governors said this!
Tweet from Home of the Brave: “Oklahoma’s Republican Gov. Kevin Stitt criticizes Trump for sending the Texas National Guard to Illinois,” followed by Stitt’s quote about states’ rights and federalism. Below is a photo of Stitt sitting in his office with an American flag behind him.

Donald Trump is weaponizing the DOJ against his political opponents.

Meanwhile, he's gutting the Justice Department’s Public Integrity Section which assists U.S. attorneys’ offices around the country with investigating crooked government officials.

"Drain the swamp."

NEW: Last night, the Senate passed a bill that reauthorizes addiction treatment and housing services for recently incarcerated people.

This is a crucial step toward ensuring people coming out of prison have the support they need.

Trump has hired over 100 fossil fuel insiders to staff his administration and advance the industry's agenda.

Is it any wonder why his Big Ugly Bill contains more than $40B in new subsidies and tax breaks for Big Oil?

For many families, the Trump administration’s efforts to restrict birthright citizenship have turned what should've been the happiest moments — the birth of a new child — into a time of stress and uncertainty.

We won't back down from defending the 14th Amendment.

Families share how Trump’s threat to end birthright citizenship turned moments of joy into doubt about their children’s futures.

The only thing snipped here has been RFK’s brain stem.
Screenshot of a tweet from The Bulwark. Text reads: “RFK: ‘There's two studies which show children who are circumcised early have double the rate of autism. It's highly likely because they were given Tylenol.’” Below is a photo of a formal meeting at a long table with Donald Trump and several officials.

If Covid was a hoax, why the fuck did Trump get the vaccine today?

And why go to Walter Reed to get it when he has a full medical staff at The White House?

Something smells fishy…

1. Today, I have a few things to say about that putz Stephen Miller. First, he’s been on TV a lot lately, because that’s how he pours more poison into the president’s already-poisoned brain.

Many states have gutted tenure in the last five to ten years, however, running parallel to the political shifts of the last decade or so. So, we still go thru the motions of applying for/awarding tenure, but it no longer means what it supposed to mean.
