HASSAN: What is habeas corpus? NOEM: Habeas corpus is a constitutional right that the president has to be able to remove people from this country HASSAN: That's incorrect

Republicans have just proposed defunding Planned Parenthood nationwide. In doing so, they are telling women and people across the country that our healthcare doesn’t matter and that we are undeserving of care. It’s time to stop this bill in its tracks.

Republicans are saying that these cuts will be reinvested into Medicaid for people who "deserve" it. If that were true, the budget would stay the same. But that's not what's happening. Why? Because down the hall, they are trying to finance tax breaks for billionaires.

Some DOGE political appointee choosing which grants to fund is oppression of academic freedom and scientific freedom. If the right wants to kill science in the US, the surest way to do that is to take away scientists’ freedom to judge which ideas are meritorious.

This is about all of us. Never forget that.

Missourians overturned the abortion ban at the ballot, but Republicans can’t abide the will of the voters. Want to see tyranny and overreach? Look at my state… missouriindependent.com/2025/04/29/a...

If you kidnap and disappear a 4-year-old with stage 4 cancer, you should at a minimum spend the rest of your life behind bars. If you do it as part of an ethnic cleansing program, you should do your hard time at the Hague.

The real truth about who counts in this country is obvious. Oil companies rule this government at least in the economic arena.
