HIRONO: If a court says this deployment of troops into our cities is not legal, would you follow that court's order? HEGSETH: I don't believe district courts should be determining national security policy. If it goes to the Supreme Court, we'll see.

This decision is trash and trans people deserve better. Yet again, SCOTUS has ruled to allow politically-motivated bans on access to healthcare that saves lives. No matter what the MAGA justices say, healthcare is a human right and that includes gender-affirming medical care for trans youth.

SLOTKIN: Have you given the order to be able to shoot at unarmed protesters in any way? HEGSETH: What is that based on? SLOTKIN: It is based on Trump giving that order to your predecessor, who I give a lot of credit to bc he didn't accept the order. He has more guts & balls than you

If I – as a U.S. Senator and Vice Chair of the Intelligence Committee – have no answers on what this administration’s policy is when it comes to Iran, what signals does that send to our allies? To our foes?

House Republicans passed the biggest health care cut in U.S. history. Senate Republicans’ response? Hold my beer. Now they’re pushing even deeper Medicaid cuts—knowing it’ll shut down rural hospitals, strip care from their own voters, and leave millions hanging.

Fuerza responds to scenes where alleged ICE enforcement is reported. If officers are indeed with ICE, they hit record and spread the word. They also speak directly with those being detained. They are part of a growing scrappy network of volunteers protecting neighbors from ICE. bit.ly/4lgke5N
