The GOP budget shows this regime’s true colors.

It doesn’t eliminate taxes on tips, social security or overtime. That was just a lie.

Instead, it slashes health care & food assistance.

All to fund tax cuts for the wealthy & corporations.

The grift is almost complete. And we’ll all pay the price.

The Trump administration halted $1 billion for mental health services for children, saying that the programs funded by a bipartisan law aimed at stemming gun violence in schools were no longer in “the best interest of the federal government.”

Congress authorized the money in a bipartisan breakthrough around addressing gun violence after a shooting at an elementary school in Uvalde, Texas, killed 19 children and two teachers.

A colleague at Stanford’s business school used The Stanford Daily to argue—poorly—against DEI. The piece was riddled with historical errors and left one searching for fact, so I broke my public writing hiatus to respond.

I hope you’ll read and share the piece.

What DEI threatens isn’t merit. It’s monopoly.
Political science professor Hakeem Jefferson argues for DEI's importance to de-monopolizing universities.

The first U.S. senator to join PTFO is an ex-QB who is neither a Democrat nor a Republican.

But Angus King — an Independent, from Maine, for 40 years — has a nonpartisan warning about what this Trump presidency is doing to the Constitution.

And how Congress is enabling it: youtu.be/0Mqj2orsNp0?...

Almost every line of this story would have been simply unbelievable a few months ago:

—Pioneering cancer researcher;
—*Arrested* at airport in Boston;
—Now indefinite ICE detention in Louisiana;
—"Crime": not declaring some frog-embryo samples for research.

Read it.

New images could change cancer diagnostics, but ICE detained the Harvard scientist who analyzes them
Without scientist Kseniia Petrova’s expertise, no one can fully unlock the data’s potential, putting crucial advancements in early cancer detection at risk.

They had lawyers, trials, most were given pretrial release, allowed to testify in their own defense, got discovery, could call witnesses, could cross-examine witnesses, could present mitigation at sentencing, and had a right to appeal.
