interesting how rapidly academic freedom and free speech disappeared from the conversation after dominating it for years and years www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv...

Three in four adults enrolled in Medicaid have one or more chronic conditions. See new @kff.org brief with state and national numbers and condition breakouts-- www.kff.org/medicaid/iss...

I called for an independent investigation into Donald Trump's dismantling of the Department of Education, and now, it's happening. This investigation will reveal what's at stake for families. While Trump and Musk side with billionaires, I'll side with our kids.

When do you think the White House will announce that they've had a beautiful call with Xi and the China tariffs are going to be lowered or paused?

The latest episode of Main Justice with Mary McCord-- covering breaking legal news. Jam-packed-- if you believe as I do that this is a critical time to be engaged, this episode is one way to do that. Andrew podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/m...

I'm having a really hard time figuring out how to navigate this site. So far I haven't seen a single friend on it. Well I don't know how to search for them either.

The Trump administration wants to shut down all of Social Security over a ruling blocking 11 DOGE workers from sticking their fingers in your private data. 11 DOGE workers. 73 million Americans. This is illegal. If it happens, will force millions of seniors into poverty.

Today I lost an NIH grant training clinicians to do research about intimate partner violence with perinatal women. More women are murdered in the perinatal period than die of obstetric complications. I didn't just lose a grant. We lost an entire cohort of people building careers to prevent that.

The bottom line? Trump and his GOP allies are running the government like a Ponzi scheme for the ultra-rich. Working Americans get higher bills, worse health care, and no relief—while billionaires get handouts. That’s not leadership. That’s theft. #JointAddress

Canadian MP Charlie Angus: I am here today to urge Canadians to avoid travel to the United States if at all possible and to call on our government to stand up for our citizens who are being denied their rights through arbitrary detention in the United States.

Good example of what happens when POTUS disregards the requirement to have OLC approve every E.O. and proclamation for form and legality: The President can simply lie about a key factual predicate w/o offering any evidence--and then insist DOJ defend it in court. www.nytimes.com/2025/03/20/u...

Every time you see someone powerful acting like a craven coward in the face of this authoritarian menace, let it stiffen your own spine. We are all we've got.

I really wish Dem strategists would just once go on TV and acknowledge that Trump only won by 1.5% and didn't even get a majority before they start with the tiresome "Democrats have completely lost touch with average Americans etc, etc." That's how you think after a landslide loss not a squeaker.

More and more "stuff" is coming out in regards to trumps long term connection with Putin and Russia. Going back years. Was his first wife his first handler?
