Under Trump’s #BigUglyBill, breastfeeding mothers receiving WIC assistance would see their monthly benefits go from $54 to just $13. They’ll force you to birth a baby, but will deny you the ability to feed it. Ok. MAHA my azz.

kind of just endlessly sad and grieving that there are so few voices in the public sphere making the basic principled argument that immigration is an affirmative good in every way and the best way for this country to serve humanity is to welcome people who want or need to leave their homes

The fact that Kilmar is being brought back to stand trial on concocted charges is proof beyond debate that the admin ALWAYS had the ability to bring him back, and just didn’t fucking want to. DOJ LIED to the Court multiple times about that, and acted in pure contempt of the judge’s orders.

In claiming that those dropped from Medicaid will be put on employers’ insurance plans instead, James Lankford just enunciated Trickle Down 2.0: Healthcare Edition. It’s a lie, just like classic trickle-down economics. This budget plan will give us a sicker America. www.alternet.org/james-lankfo...

Abducting people at work sites - meaning they have jobs. Capturing them at court dates - meaning they're following the law. Blocking them from accessible higher education - meaning they're striving for more. And peddling lies about jobless, lawless, driftless.

Three Palestinian students were shot in Vermont. A Palestinian six-year-old was murdered by his pro-Israel landlord. A Texas woman was indicted for trying to drown a 3-year-old Palestinian girl. We don't have to make this comparison to condemn what happened in Boulder on Sunday. We really don't.

It wouldn’t be hard to protect Medicaid and funding to rural hospitals and still reduce our nation’s ballooning debt and deficit. The Rs would just have to make the wealthy and corporations pay slightly more in taxes. (PS Rs are never serious about the debt and deficit when they are in power).
