Tucked inside the House GOP tax bill? A massive national voucher program. $5B/year in tax credits to subsidize private & religious schools—$20B over 4 years. Public money, zero oversight. A backdoor defund of public education masked as “choice.” #HandsOffPublicSchools

Even before latest thing I've been telling people for months Joni Ernst is way more vulnerable next year than people think. Dems should be investing a lot right now laying the ground work in the state.

Popok: I don’t want to live in a country where I wake up and the president and his henchmen are sending other human beings—and they are outsourcing them for cash. Paying cash to third-world countries that don’t respect our values.

My high school age son has a classmate just seized by ICE and she is now in a cell in Louisiana, her phone seized. This is High School in the USA in 2025. More Au Revoir Les Enfants than Ferris Bueller. School and community response already in motion.

If you know anything about RFK Jr the fact that he falsified the MAHA report should not surprise you in the least.

The cancellation of funds for Moderna to develop the bird flu vaccine is a heinous mistake. This will inevitably result in the further spread of disease, loss of life, and economic consequences. Yet another shortsighted, foolish move, puppeted by RFK Jr. to fuel his anti-vax agenda. Despicable.

Rep. Dan Goldman asked an ICE agent why he was masked: "He looked at me with a straight face and said, 'Because it's cold in here.' Of course it was 70 degrees. And I said to him, 'Will you testify to that under oath?' And he walked away."

The Trump administration released a report last week that it billed as a “clear, evidence-based foundation” for action on a range of children’s health issues. But the report, from the Make America Healthy Again Commission, cited studies that did not exist. www.nytimes.com/2025/05/29/w...

These men were building us homes. The violence is being committed by ICE — masked men, no ID, no warrants. Don’t believe the rhetoric being pushed by violent criminals about ‘violent criminals’ cause it’s all BS. Call your Reps and demand they hold hearings, sanctioned or not. This needs to stop.

While Stephen Miller publishes the faces of the judges that struck down Trump’s unlawful tariffs, his own goons in ICE refuse to show theirs out of fear of being publicly identified. If our judges are brave enough to face MAGA threats with their faces showing, ICE should not hide behind masks.

More Americans in this country are scared that at any other time in my life....which dates back to 1966. I grew up during the Cold War. Not even the potential for being vaporized by a nuclear blast was as scary as having the POTUS wiping his ass on the Constitution.
