Under the proposed rule issued by the Trump Administration today, any Medicare- or Medicaid-participating hospital would be barred from providing gender-affirming care to *any child*, even if the care is not paid for by Medicare or Medicaid.

Congresswoman Ilhan Omar's son was pulled over by ICE and forced to prove he is an American.

Two options:

1) ICE deliberately targeted him.

2) ICE is stopping all non-White people without any probable cause and forcing them to prove they are citizens.

Hard to say which option is scarier.

Magaziner: How many US military veterans have you deported?

Noem: We have not deported military veterans.

Magaziner: We are joined on zoom by a gentleman who is an army combat veteran who was shot twice while serving our country. You deported him to Korea.

Any death is tragic; however, the Food and Drug Administration’s vague declaration about the COVID-19 vaccine and pediatric deaths undermines confidence in the safety of the vaccine and raises questions about FDA’s own approval process.

This is a new and dire development in the ongoing American constitutional crisis. The voters, Congress, and, yes, the U.S. military must all now be more vigilant than at any time in our modern history.

Hmmmm, how long before these questions will be directed to US citizens to judge who is deserving of health care or other assistance? They keep banging on about chronic disease, yet cut everything that prevents chronic health issues.

KBJ threaded the needle thanks to CA1’s unfinished business.

-if she denied the admin stay, the full SCOTUS woulda stepped in to override her.
-if she immediately referred the case to the full Court, they coulda dragged feet.
-instead she boxed them in to act quickly once she does refer the case.

I've seen this go by a few times on TikTok now and I have to say, I love this idea. We need a way to convince people to keep running even if they don't win, maybe building the loss into it as a troll move is the secret.

Recessions always start with the layoffs. Then people can’t find any work. Next unemployment dries up because Republicans don’t believe in extensions. Folks can’t afford even the essentials. Businesses shutter.

It’s all painful.

But South Korea gave Trump a pretty gold crown, so he’s happy.

We’re aware ICE and other federal agents are in the Twin Cities ahead of Kristi Noem’s speech today. Though we’re not aware of planned enforcement activity, I share your concerns. Reminder SPPD will not participate in immigration enforcement.

Our federal tax dollars are being used to fund a network of government social media accounts that pump out disinformation 24/7. Even during a government shutdown. It’s definitely not essential work.

Trump has signed a national security memo that treats dissent as terrorism.

If you’ve ever criticized Christianity, capitalism, or "traditional" views on family, you're now in the crosshairs of federal law enforcement.

It's weaponized authoritarianism.
