Rand Paul: "We've never in our past decided just to shoot smugglers who are unarmed without even proof they're smuggling anything. So I think this is a horrendous thing that should stop. I think it's illegal & immoral... the kids in the military - I'm not for sending them down there to die for oil"

Trump is taking money out their housing allowances approved by Congress and giving it to them in a “bonus” so it looks like it came from him. It’s just a shell game with military pay from the ultimate con man

Trump and Republicans claim they want to "protect children."

But they've rolled back child labor laws and environmental protections, blocked gun safety reform, and spread lies about vaccines that save children from deadly diseases.

Hello?

Some of the best movies ever made were by Rob Reiner. They made us laugh and think: The Princess Bride, When Harry Met Sally, A Few Good Men. And he was a force on screen as well in All in the Family and so many films.

What a tragic loss. Words fail with news like this.

Amazing!! Women Help Women (womenhelp.org) is manufacturing their own abortion pills in order to make abortion safer, simpler and more accessible across borders. They designed an eco-friendly combi-pack that's easier to mail discreetly and centred around women’s experiences and needs.

Ahmed al Ahmed, the man who tackled one of the Bondi killers, became an Australian citizen 3 years ago.

His deed was "his way of conveying his gratitude for staying in Australia, for being granted citizenship."

He took 5 bullets, and fears he'll lose his left arm.

Of 111 people infected, 105 were unvaccinated.

Public health experts and pediatricians overwhelmingly agree: the measles vaccine is safe, effective, and essential to preventing outbreaks—despite what Trump and Secretary Kennedy claim.

Get vaccinated.

Great News! We’ve secured a win successfully blocking the Trump Admin’s unlawful funding cuts & illegal attempt to shut down FEMA’s bipartisan BRIC program. 
 
We’ll continue to fight for these critical programs that help our communities prepare for and protect against disasters before they strike.

Last week, ICE arrested and separated a father and son after a routine check-in. Six-year-old Yuanxin had just enrolled in the first grade at an elementary school in Astoria. Now he's in custody, alone. ICE won't say where. This cruelty serves no one. It must end.
