This is Lola. She is one of the most skilled soccer dribblers we've ever seen, so it makes sense that she's already capturing footage for her documentary. 14/10

MURRAY: Will you allocate the $220m for literacy programs that Congress appropriated? McMAHON: We're looking at the unallocated dollars to determine which of those programs we can best spend on MURRAY: Those funds were appropriated. It looks to me like the dept is illegally impounding funding

The courts just stopped Trump from dismantling the Dept. of Education. Newsflash: you don’t get to gut public education without Congress. Thousands of workers? Saved. Public education? Protected. Dictatorship? Denied.

If the GOP Tax Scheme is so beautiful, then why are they voting on it in the wee hours of the morning? Maybe because it’s irredeemably ugly and cruel.

Miami researchers are testing a textured seawall designed to hold back water and create a home for marine organisms

McGovern: You guys make Marie Antoinette look down to earth. Trump’s cabinet is like an episode of the lifestyles of the rich and famous. These people are totally clueless. They don’t shop for their own groceries. They don’t buy their own food.

25 people were arrested today for civil disobedience protesting Medicaid cuts, incl. wheelchair users. Committee Chair Rep. Brett Guthrie (R-Ky) called “…the outcry illegal and “a criminal offense.”” Keep getting in good trouble! Mother Jones: tinyurl.com/yc4mnrdj IG vid: @all_things_democracy

As many federal governments slow — or reverse — climate action, Austria's capital, Vienna, wants to show how cities can take the lead.

In Denmark, there are supermarkets where all products are expired but still edible. For those who need to save money, and to combat food waste. — The name of these stores: “WeFood”. Humanity is that simple.

DHS Sec Kristi Noem testifying on DHS budget today, and Sen. Chris Murphy begins by eviscerating everything she's been doing so far. "You are illegally refusing to spend funds appropriated by this Congress... Routinely violating the rights of immigrants... Your agency acts as if laws don't matter."

MERKLEY: Are you gonna launch an investigation of the reported violation of the due process of several hundred people? P: It is not for me to call the balls & strikes M: You haven't read the Constitution? It says 'all persons'...it concerns me you're not familiar w/the core concept of due process

⚠️Tariffs On Medications Will Make America Sick We might soon see Trump WH impose tariffs on pharmaceuticals—patients will suffer and die. Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick said that these tariffs are coming in the “next month or two.” What will this mean?

Crockett: I cannot wait until voters have an opportunity to say: You took food out of my mouth. You took a roof from over my head. You are responsible for making sure that I do not have health care. I'm going to make sure you don't have a job.

This is Eugene. Like many of us, Eugene is getting older and it's harder for his short little arthritic legs to make it over obstacles. Please help us buy the special pools we need to keep our older pigs cool this summer! donorbox.org/mmfs-spring-...
