The U.S. Secretary of Health and Human Services has repeatedly claimed: “If you’re healthy, it’s almost impossible to die from an infectious disease in modern times.” That is dangerously false. www.medscape.com/viewarticle/...

INBOX: Yikes — Senator @PaulBaileyforTN (R) called out for ducking pastors before voting to block undocumented kids from schools, and Senator Tom Hatcher (R) allegedly lied to pastors and said he’d oppose it, then voted for it. 😕 🤥

This is an incredibly important story that needs a legal strategy. This is very bad news for Americans.

Just in case those of us fighting for democracy in court didn't need another challenge, Big Law turning collaborators is here and growing. My firm and others continue to fight. We will never back down. We will never bend a knee. We will never obey.

I said it before and I’ll say it again: Target not only turned its back on diversity it spit in our faces. My wife and I haven’t been back since January — and we won’t be. We take our money where people like us are seen, valued, and respected. Solidarity ✊🏿✊🏾✊🏽✊🏻

The United States is the richest country in the history of the world. But who benefits from those riches? Consider: the richest 10% of Americans hold nearly 70% of the nation’s wealth – while the bottom 50% hold just 3%. See the problem?

Scary Napkin Math: InsideHigherEd lists ~1000 student visas revoked now. (These students are here legally! And not criminals!) With no official reporting system, this must be an undercount. If the real # is 2x that, it approaches 1 in 500 intl students. What is the real goal here? #Academicsky

Keep talking about the Signal security lapse at the Pentagon. The media may have forgotten about it, but the voters have not.

On today’s episode of “He’s Tearing This S**t Up”—Trump plans to dismantle NOAA, shutting down climate research and weather labs. In Texas, that means fewer hurricane warnings, less drought data, & more risk to our communities. This isn’t just a budget cut—it’s a threat to our safety.

Democracy isn’t dying in darkness it’s being dismantled at the hands of the Supreme Court of North Carolina. @allisonjriggs.bsky.social won this election fair and square back in November. Her opponent is a petulant Confederate cosplayer who can’t handle losing. Concede Jefferson Griffin.

So all the White House political reporters are spending the weekend getting up to speed on the Abrego Garcia case and litigation related to the gulag in El Salvador so that they can prep good questions for Bukele’s visit on Monday, right? Right????????

I just want to tip my hat to the crack team of White House economists who were able to discover--in just a few short days--that the U.S. is dependent on China for smartphones, computers and semiconductors.

Trump's EPA just moved to reverse state and local bans on toxic "forever chemicals" that can lead to birth defects and cancer. So much for "Make America Healthy Again." https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2025/apr/05/trump-pfas-toxic-forever-chemicals

SCOTUS ruled 9-0—twice—that the Trump admin can’t deport people without due process, and must facilitate the return of a person wrongfully deported. I joined @lawrenceodonnell.msnbc.com to explain the Administration’s lawless — and cruel — actions.
