MUST WATCH: ICE kidnapped a disabled American citizen. Her name is Alma Bowman. Born in the Philippines while her dad served in the U.S. Navy. She’s lived here 48 years. They crashed her wheelchair, denied meds, cut her off from her lawyer—and jailed her. She. Is. A. Citizen.

Trump, who would be older than Biden at term’s end, faces growing concerns over his mental sharpness. Dr. Jennifer Mercieca says his lack of focus and scattered rhetoric suggest cognitive decline, making it hard for him to carry thoughts to logical conclusions. www.rawstory.com/trump-cognit...

Frog embryos you guys. Literally, frog embryos.

I really cannot stress enough how remarkable it is for the government to have a routine motion denied outright. Xinis could have said you don’t get 30 days but you can have a few days or a week. Denying the motion and ordering them to file on that same day is deserved but still a *wild* outcome.

"Public schools are where it all begins. Where our society and community start. We start our society segregating disabled people. Ostensibly with some weird idea that after they're 18 they'll suddenly get integrated into a society that didn't even know they existed." - North Star and the Compass

Critical point: The legislation is designed to kick people off Medicaid because it ignores the reality that low-wage jobs have highly variable hours--and they can't control that.

3 guys, none with infectious disease or pedatric expertise, just ran roughshod over normal procedures to block COVID shots for kids, pregnant people. This is so awful & insane & we should treat it as such. Reporters, you're on notice. Both sides this at your peril & watch your credibitlity evaporate

No matter how long they try to draw this out no one will stop caring or is gonna forget that Abrego Garcia and many others have been wrongfully deported to a known death camp in El Salvador, nor will we stop demanding they be returned. Try to turn a superglued page and you find out about flypaper.

Nobody died since cuts to USAID??? Check that statement. Here’s how. Aid groups say USAID cuts are already having deadly consequences one.npr.org/i/nx-s1-5413...

BREAKING: Judge Xinis DENIES the Trump administration an additional 30 days to file a response to the complaint in the Abrego Garcia case. "Defendants expended no effort in demonstrating good cause. But these self-described burdens are of their own making." storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

"I don't know why trans people are meant to be threatening to me... Why would you care if somebody's happy? Why is that threatening to you?"

4-year-old Bakersfield girl facing deportation could die within days of losing medical care - Los Angeles Times Don’t ever tell me that Christians support the GOP. There is nothing Christian or Christ-like about this. Just plain old cruelty and callousness:

As we all should.

‘AI is in everything! If you use spellcheck, you can’t be mad about ChatGPT!’ Look, you determinedly obtuse cantaloupe, don’t slander spell check, first created in 1961, made for PCs in 1980. NO ONE THINKS A SPELL CHECKER IS GEN AI. What in the ever-loving straw-man tomfoolery.

Today the Supreme Court cleared the way for the federal government to transfer thousands of acres of national forestland including a Native American sacred site, to Resolution Copper a mining company owned by Rio Tinto and BHP. The land holds deep spiritual significance for the Western Apache tribe.

Slow & steady wins the race! Big win for my union AFGE. A judge granted a preliminary injunction ruling that President Trump cannot implement mass layoffs of federal workers without the approval of Congress which created these agencies. #UnionStrong ✊🏾 click.actionnetwork.org/ss/c/u001.Xa...

The Trump administration is coming after veterans' benefits and jobs, but there's another threat to their civil rights: the ability to bring their cases in federal district court. We're urging courts to protect veterans, not harm them.
