The Republicans' massive policy bill would do more than extend income tax cuts, add restrictions to Medicaid and pour funding into President Trump's deportation campaign. The 1,000-plus-page bill includes several lesser-known provisions that could have an impact on Americans' lives.

I think we’ve reached a boiling point when it comes to ICE. Today in Minneapolis, a militarized task force raided the beloved Lake Street taqueria, Las Cuatro Milpas—and the community was not having it. Agents from ICE, the DEA, FBI, ATF, IRS and HHS rolled up looking like they were ready for war.

“Hegseth Orders Navy to Strip Name of Gay Rights Icon Harvey Milk from Ship.” Once Hegseth was confirmed, her soul was doomed. There are more than seven rings of hell for today’s MAGA GOP. May this regime never know a moment’s peace once they’re banished. RIP Harvey Milk x’s 2 😢🤍🌈🕊️

As Musk exits the WH, DOGE has wreaked chaos, upended people's lives and shut down a life-saving international aid org, but it has fallen far short of its goal. And on the Hill, the DOGE caucuses that sprung up have been an even bigger failure -> puck.news/a-doge-retro...

#ResistanceRoots Today in history, 1943: The Zoot Suit Riots begin in LA. A mob of about 50 U.S. sailors used clubs and other makeshift weapons to attack and strip anyone wearing zoot suits, the baggy pants, oversized coats and porkpie hats favored by many young Black and Latino men at the time. /1

Isn't it clear by now to everybody that Trump is a disaster to the US economy? What have all you destructive billionaires to say about how you contributed to Trump's destruction of the US economy, democracy & rule of law? Aren't you ashamed of yourselves?

Law enforcement officers should never cover their faces when making arrests or conceal their identities (unless they are working undercover). They work for us. We have a right to know who they are. These face coverings are frightening & unAmerican, as though they're ashamed of what they're doing.

“To be serious is not to detach. It is to ask more of ourselves than a hashtag. It is to recognise that feeling is not the end of moral life, but its beginning. That it must lead not to expression, but to understanding — & then, perhaps, to action…care that begins & ends with the self helps no one…”

Despite being one of the most visibly distinct faith traditions in the world, Sikhi remains poorly understood in the West. Sikhs are often seen, and just as often misread: their turbans mistaken, their names unfamiliar, their faith largely unknown. csesznekymiklos.substack.com/p/guru-arjan...

Mother of 6, Luz del Carmen Herrera, was grabbed by ICE following her immigration hearing. Her husband says the case had been dropped. 😭 Let's be clear...They're not hunting "criminals." To meet human quotas, ICE has been detaining law-abiding immigrants at courthouses. 🎥 @flowerinspanish on Insta

Democrats' efforts to hold President Trump accountable have been ineffective. But drawing on lessons from abroad, what succeeds is not talk about saving democracy but rather a practical focus on Trump's economic failures, corruption and scorn for his own followers. www.nytimes.com/2025/05/24/o...

This is disturbing, devastating, heartbreaking. Women are half of the population yet don't have the research to make informed health decisions. Those of us who are women’s health warriors need to dig in, channel our righteous anger, and ensure women’s health research isn’t obliterated.

In the past, free Black people were kidnapped and placed into slavery. In 2025, Latinos are being kidnapped and detained; even though they are US citizens or in legal status. This is Solomon Northup, a free Black man who spent 12 years as a slave. Do not dismiss history.

Rachel Maddow is right: History shows us how to resist tyranny—not just big moments like WWII, but recent ones too—Poland's Solidarity movement, Navalny’s courage. The lesson? Don’t wait. Protest. Vote. Call. Write. Show up. Small actions, repeated, change everything. Democracy depends on you.

Damn. This is dramatic. I had heard a couple days ago that a Nadler staffer had been arrested but was waiting for confirmation. So now we know what happened; ICE officers barged into the district office trying to arrest other people, handcuffed a staffer who pushed back, then let her go, no arrest.
