California is the first state to define ultra-processed foods and phase them out of school meals.

DC politicians can talk all day about "Making America Healthy Again," but we've been walking the walk on boosting nutrition and removing toxic additives and dyes for decades.

It's been over 9 months since the Palisades and Eaton Fires tore through Los Angeles. We asked for federal support, but we haven’t heard a word from the White House.

Not a single offer.

Is this what leadership looks like? Abandoning the American people when they call for help?

On the eve of Comey’s arraignment, Senate GOP revisits stale Jan. 6 claims. An FBI doc shows a grand jury okayed phone data collection on 8 GOP senators, but Smith’s report and public records explain why. @klasfeldreports.com of All Rise News breaks it down.

Pritzker: "It's unconscionable. This has never happened before. They're calling out troops onto the streets of a state that doesn't want them and they're not even telling us where they're gonna go, what they're gonna do. This hasn't happened I don't think since the Civil War."

NEW: Comey is going to file selective and vindictive prosecution motion to dismiss AND he will challenge the legality of Halligan’s appointment! There’s more, too… so glad @annabower.bsky.social is there to bring us the whole story! Thread below with details:

The judge also set an initial schedule for pre-trial motions.

The first set is expected by Oct. 12. Per Comey’s defense counsel, that batch will include motions to dismiss for selective and vindictive prosecution, as well as a motion challenging the legality of Halligan’s appointment as US attorney

I can’t believe I have to say this, but historically, masked men who kidnap families in the middle of the night are usually not the good guys.

Just 10 months ago, the USA, brought moral leadership the world in many respects. Now, #Republicans have destroyed our global reputation by literally killing the most vulnerable people on earth by withholding food aid. Pure evil.
