"'Rather than Miccosukee homelands being an uninhabited wasteland for alligators and pythons, as some have suggested, the Big Cypress is the Tribe’s traditional homelands. The landscape has protected the Miccosukee and Seminole people for generations,' Miccosukee Chairman Talbert Cypress wrote"

The Republican Party is the verminous, bigoted party of ignorance and anti-Americanism, striving to turn this into a totalitarian blood-and-soil shithole.

This is a wonky process but BIG news regarding the Republican budget bill: My staff successfully got multiple provisions removed from the bill. Two key wins: 1) Medicaid provider tax. Striking this means Republicans have to backtrack on hundreds of billions in Medicaid cuts.

Jake Sherman is reporting that the Medicaid gender affirming care ban has been removed from the reconciliation bill! Huge news!

tracreports.org/immigration/... 40,433 out of 56,397—or 71.7%—held in ICE detention have no criminal record, according to data current as of June 15, 2025. Many more have only minor offenses, including traffic violations.

Trump’s America. Where the wheelchair-bound are zip tied by police for going to Congress to protest their healthcare being removed.

Mike Lee's insane quest to privatize public lands isn't dead. I spoke to Sen. Ron Wyden about Lee's assault on our shared treasures to create a boon for the vacation-home class

25+ million dollars. A former president. Some of the richest people in the US. The entire liberal and conservative political establishment. And Zohran Mamdani — and all the people behind him — beat it all.

Huge news today: Big Balls Out. Also, Big Balls Out.

Oregon Senator Ron Wyden, a Democrat, sought to expand the model, passing the CAHOOTS Act in Congress in 2021 to provide federal funding through Medicaid. Now, there are at least 130 911-dispatched police alternatives in the United States, the vast majority created in the last five years.

This administration truly is cartoonishly evil.

This isn't an old story. The IDF is killing starving people every day!

Wow: ICE Has Deported at Least 70 U.S. Citizens

​​IAEA Director Rafael Grossi said that the damage dealt by America’s weekend airstrike on Iran’s nuclear facilities was expected to be “very significant.”

Anyone else need a cute puppy pic?

Don't let anyone forget that a genocide is still happening in Gaza

Vance is an arrogant clown.

At least 2 rental homes in University Park have not rented in 6 to 12+ months, and are now for sale. A couple of other rentals are not renting to families vs the usual student occupants. I certainly don't mind this change, but that really says something about the continuing drop in students at UP.
