Appalling! Guns are the #1 killer of children & teens in the U.S. but the Trump Administration is shamelessly cancelling $1 billion in school mental health grants - that were authorized by the Bipartisan Safer Communities Act passed after the horrific Uvalde shooting. #VoteThemOut

If more people decline face scans, TSA might rethink “whether it’s actually effective to roll out programs like these,” EFF’s Saira Hussain told @huffpost.com. Without pushback, they're "just going to keep instituting more and more invasive techniques.”

The Dallas ICE office is involved in a mass removal effort targeting nearly 200 people — many without removal orders — scheduled to be deported to El Salvador today. This is not just cruel – it is lawless. I refuse to stay quiet while families are being torn apart, and lives are being put at risk.

Tonight we learned that it was indeed Andry, the gay man sent to El Salvador because of his “mom” and “dad” tattoos, who an American journalist saw sobbing as guards slapped him repeatedly and shaved his head. He is an innocent. And Trump sent him to a torture prison. Bring them back!

Top intelligence committees need to begin an investigation into Pete Hegseth's epic Signal chat mishap. ASAP. There should be televised hearings so all Americans have transparency on how such an enormous breach of national security could take place in first place.
