I miss my 50-year streak of not knowing who the Secretary of Health is or anything about them.

Yes, somehow those heading corporations don't seem to be making the connection: rogue regime = less business and lower profits.

I know it's frustrating when lawyers point out when something the administration is doing is not legal. But responding with "the law doesn't matter anymore" is really unhelpful and defeatist. Clarifying the law is important because it reminds us not to comply in advance and to resist and take action

"'Literally nobody objects to our bill,' Nancy Goodman, the founder and executive director of Kids v Cancer, told me. Yet in conversations with lawmakers and aides in the last few weeks, few held out any real hope that the bill will be passed soon."

Elon Musk Torpedoed a Beloved Pediatric Cancer Bill. It’s Yet to Recover.

Sometimes, a good piece of legislation fails to become a law for one simple, stupid reason: congressional inertia.

The streets of Chicago are full with tens of thousands of people standing up to ICE and Trump.

Join us.

A hoard of people march in the streets with protest signs. Even in heels, I am too short to properly show the massive scale of the crowd.

I only hope I'm still alive when America's version of the Nuremberg trials finally happens. These pieces of sh*t are making a mockery out of the sacrifices our elders made to fight the fascist monsters.
Dad, I'm so sorry. 🙏🏽

not okay w WH trying to intimidate me or others behind the scenes which this seems to be about. Why else does WH need to know which law professors spoke to the press before a story is published? The WH was asked a question about the law (as were we), not asked about personal or factual issues. 2/2
