Raskin: You are not our king, and we are not your subjects. We will never be your subjects. All of us born here on this land are citizens and your executive order is nothing but bad graffiti on the Constitution, and we're going to wash it off today

1 in 5 American women rely on Medicaid. MAGA’s budget destroys wellness and reproductive care for millions of them. I stand with women and families across the country saying ‘hell no’ to this MAGA wrecking ball.

Growing up in the '70s I'd read about strongman rulers in far-off places like Asia or Africa who had billion-dollar Swiss bank accounts and mansions in the French Riviera while their citizens were mired in poverty, and wondered how that could be allowed to happen Now I know

It’s Paramount that the protests must continue in Ernest. but just as important they must remain peaceful. Trump is just waiting for a reason to execute the insurrection act and martial law. Which would put every American in danger…. every American.

“Sentencing guidelines call for 20 years to life in prison.” For those catching up: the U.S. government is now explicitly considering the use of anti-terrorism laws—originally designed for foreign combatants—against college protesters. This is a horrifying, all-out assault on dissent.

Screenshot of a Guardian opinion article titled "The US is poised to use terror laws against students. This could be worse than McCarthyism" by Thomas Anthony Durkin and Bernard Harcourt. The subheading mentions a new task force investigating support for Hamas, paving the way for a legal strategy targeting free speech.

Medicare for All isn't radical. What's radical is that we are the only major country not to guarantee health care as a human right. Every other major country figured out years ago how to provide health care to all at a much lower cost. Please don't tell me we can't do the same.

Trump: "To be honest with you, Canada only works as a state. We don't need anything they have. As a state it would be one of the great states. This would be the most incredible country visually. If you look at a map, they drew an artificial line right through it."

On Friday night, HHS ordered CDC to take down all flu vaccine campaign materials from its website. Materials are starting to come down. For example, a campaign explaining that flu shot can reduce flu severity from "wild to mild" is now offline. Left image is from Friday, right is now Meanwhile...
