Stephen Miller was never elected, but he is calling the shots. Trump promised to protect farm and hospitality workers from ICE raids, then reversed course. The truth is Miller is running the show and millions of working families are now at risk because of it. www.usatoday.com/story/news/p...

Natural disasters don't spare voters from either party. And our response must be equally nonpartisan. Someone needs to tell the president he is supposed to represent all Americans. And to stop making life more difficult for thousands of Californians trying to recover.

ICE has been taking the position nationwide that its field offices, and the detention cells therein, are not facilities "operated by or for [DHS] used to detain or otherwise house aliens," on the argument that the facilities are "processing areas" and therefore not covered detention facilities.

"A hit dog will holler. And maybe that dog will win a reprieve from the Supreme Court, too. But even so, it still matters when old bulls of the judiciary, particularly conservatives like Judge Young, call out the Trump regime for turning civil rights laws on their head." — @lizdye.bsky.social

We are witnessing an epidemic of the abuse of the power of the federal government, including the criminal system, to target and intimidate Democrats and their supporters. Trump will escalate this until people stand up to him. It is time we all have the courage to peacefully stand up and say enough!

Medicaid cuts will lead to hospital closures across the country, especially in rural and underserved areas. By showing up at our local hospitals and speaking out, we can hold our elected officials accountable for putting billionaires ahead of working families, seniors, and people with disabilities.

Tonight, I'll go home and sleep in my bed. I have a lawyer, I'll get due process. But Edgardo, whose arm was ripped from mine by ICE agents, has none of those things. That's why I'll keep coming back to court, week after week, to make sure that people's rights are protected.

Yes, they’re going after Medicare too. Trump’s bill guts help for 1,300,000 vulnerable seniors and people with disabilities by changing how they enroll in programs that cover out-of-pocket costs. Many will skip care. Some will die. Don’t let them hide it.
