NEW: Report from American Progress showing that the proposed Republican budget reconciliation bill would cut or eliminating funding for 4.4 million -- or almost 2 out of 3 -- Pell Grant students. Read the full article here: americanprogress.org/article/congre…

Seven of the cited sources in the MAHA report don’t appear to exist at all. “The paper cited is not a real paper that I or my colleagues were involved with,” Keyes told NOTUS via email. New on NOTUS from Emily Kennard and Margaret Manto notus.org/health-science…

President Trump's warning that protests of his military parade will be met with "very big force" is in direct opposition to free speech and democracy. This is the president's way of crushing dissent, Heather Cox Richardson (TDPR) explains:

In the space of 5 days, the Trump Administration has: 1 called the national guard into an American city over the objection of the state Gov 2 called the Marines - war fighters - into an American city 3 DHS tackling a US Senator for asking questions at a press conference We have

.Hakeem Jeffries tells Garrett's harrowing story if this bill is passed: "I worry about what would happen to me and my friends if these programs were taken away. Without them, I wouldn't be table to keep up with doctors appointments, medications, and transportation."

The Trump administration’s proposed budget cuts harm the labs researching future cures for deadly diseases and the scientists who keep us on the cutting edge of innovation. Now, perhaps more than ever, we need to #ProtectScience in the U.S.

American innovation, like the moon landing 56 years ago today, makes this country great. So why are Trump and his allies in Congress looking to gut funding for NASA and other science programs? Tell your representatives to protect American innovation: protectscienceandinnovation.org

The US has lost 42K manufacturing jobs since "liberation day."

I strongly endorse this post

Trump's policies are hurting everyone except for the richest 1%. "New Golden Age" for whom?

Disagreement, even strong disagreement, is a vital part of a thriving democracy. Violence is not. It is incumbent on all of us to vehemently reject the rising tide of political violence at every level.

don't trust people who are against button-down collars

This aged well.

.Adam Schiff is right. What we’re seeing take place across the country–families ripped apart, communities divided, racial profiling greenlit by judges–is not who we should strive to be as a nation.

Intimidating companies and demanding they pay millions of dollars to avoid government retaliation is not normal. We shouldn’t accept the office of the presidency being leveraged as a weapon against the media. @senadamschiff explains:
