HAPPENING NOW — This morning, Mayor Brandon Johnson signed an executive order establishing “ICE-free zones.”

“That means that city property and unwilling private businesses will no longer serve as grounds for these raids,” Johnson said to applause.

This is heartbreaking and beyond fucked up. If your “administrative error” can rip a family apart and send someone with protected status back to a place where they’re almost sure to be tortured or killed, and your response is 🤷‍♂️, you don’t deserve an administration.

Urgent: Illegal Activity Underway

Many undocumented immigrants file tax returns with the IRS, providing details about their residences, families, employers, and earnings. The IRS has historically encouraged tax compliance by issuing ITINs to those without Social Security numbers.

“One young man sobbed when a guard pushed him to the floor. He said, ‘I’m not a gang member. I’m gay. I’m a barber.’ I believed him. *** He “began to whimper,” as his head was roughly shaved, “folding his hands in prayer as his hair fell.” He “asked for his mother & cried as he was slapped again.”

🚨 Everyone needs to call their Dem Senator right now. They are starting to cave.

Tell them:
1. Vote NO on Cloture
AND
2. Vote NO on the Republican spending bill.

Don’t let them pivot to reconciliation. GOP doesn’t need Dem votes on that and they know it.

TODAY is the showdown.

The President is lying about Social Security as an excuse to gut Social Security after promising not to touch it.

Why? To pave the way for more tax cuts for the rich.

Trump's repeated attacks on "DEI," "wokeness," and the trans community have one clear purpose:

If we are angry at each other, we won't look up to see how big corporations and billionaires have rigged markets and siphoned off most of the economy's gains.

I cant believe this. Yes we can download the WHO’s recipe but when it comes to distribution of these vaccines, a multitude of factors like government recommendations and clinical guidelines determine what insurance will cover.

If RFK Jr. decides pseudoscience should reign, what happens?
I believe we have breaking news in Inside Medicine.

I spoke to a member of the FDA vaccine committee who confirmed that the meeting to decide the 2025-2026 flu shot composition was abruptly canceled today.
