Trump's reckless tariffs have been crushing farmers.
He found $40 billion to bail out Argentina.
But only $12 billion to help the farmers hurt by his policies.
You deserve better.

FWIW, the idea that Black women can't win competitive races is not born out by data. It's about (to borrow from Mitch McConnell) candidate quality:
-Cheri Beasley outperformed in North Carolina (but Schumer didn't fund her)
-Lucy McBath won a Trump district
-Lauren Underwood won a Trump district
-Cheri Beasley outperformed in North Carolina (but Schumer didn't fund her)

Delaying the birth dose of the hep B vaccine was just the beginning. Trump is ordering RFK Jr to overhaul the entire childhood vaccine schedule. Here’s a preview of the dishonest, Denmark-infused MAHA strategy to harm as many kids as possible.

I've said this multiple times, but it's just so obvious that it behooves the NWSL, each NWSL club, the decision-makers in the league office, to keep Rodman (who by all accounts is leaving money on the table!) in the NWSL.
The existing arguments to the contrary simply do not hold water.

It's pretty galling that the NWSL will *always* tout any example of unprecedented growth, no matter how insignificant or narrowly defined, and then say the revenue growth expectations needed here have no precedent.
As things stand now, the NWSL isn’t fighting for Trinity Rodman. It’s fighting against her, and shadowboxing with its own potential in the process.

One way or the other, the league will set a precedent with Rodman. The NWSL has the power to choose what that looks like.

The Supreme Court is signaling that it may hand more unchecked power over to Trump.
Allowing him to fire an FTC Commissioner would reverse 90 years of precedent and give the President the keys to currently non-partisan, independent agencies.
Still time to get it right. No Kings!

NEW: SCOTUS appears ready to give Trump greater firing powers, over sharp liberal warnings.
The Republican appointees are almost certain to overturn a 90-year precedent, as Trump wants. Pushing back, Sotomayor told DOJ: “You’re asking us to destroy the structure of government.”
