The SAVE America Act is a voter suppression scam. It would take away the rights of working people to make their voices heard at the ballot box.

The Senate must reject this bill.

What I always hear: β€œWe can’t afford to pay our workers more than $15 an hour.”

What I never hear: β€œWe can’t afford to pay our CEO millions of dollars a year.”

Funny how that works.

State Department visa rule sets stage for ICE scrutiny of transgender immigrants New visa requirements could create document conflicts that follow gender-nonconforming travelers into immigration enforcement databases.

The obsession... They’re trying it from every angle.

DOJ is barely even a functional law firm at this point. Each day there is more proof. Jeanine Pirro's effort to subpoena the Fed hit a wall. At the same time, DOJ was also forced to "clarify" arguments made in court about the Pentagon's new press policy.

I don’t see a way out of this. Taking the Strait of Hormuz or seizing Kharg island will result in considerable loss of life. We can’t exactly apologize because we killed the Ayatollah. I doubt anyone besides Israel is gonna help us. This is a disaster.

This violation of constitutional rights occurred at University of Florida Health in #Jacksonville, #Florida. #FL has gone further than other states to guarantee medical freedom for those declining vaccines, but has restricted the medical freedom of pregnant women.

@propublica.org shared a recording of a virtual court hearing for a #FL mother in labor who wouldn’t consent to a cesarean without trying to have a vaginal delivery first. A nursing supervisor wheeled a tablet to her bed and told her she was in court for failing to agree to a C-section.

Why Michigan’s voter roll case could be first to reach the Supreme Court A fast-moving Sixth Circuit and its conservative tilt could put Michigan at the center of the DOJ’s fight over access to state voter rolls.

The first White House Iftar dinner was held 50 years before the founding of the GOP. Our Muslim family, friends, and neighbors are welcome, and they aren’t going anywhere. We unequivocally reject the vile Islamophobia on display and remain committed to driving it out of our politics and government.

As Mayor Mamdani said in response to Tuberville, "I feel a loneliness and isolation that I know many of you have felt as well." We won't let Muslim Americans face the GOP's hate alone. It's on all of us to stomp out religious bigotry and ensure Republicans face consequences for their racism.

Congress must censure Tommy Tuberville, Randy Fine, Andy Ogles, and Brandon Gill. These Republicans are inciting hatred β€” and there must be consequences. Condemning vitriolic bigotry shouldn't be considered a partisan act.

This is unfortunately a tired playbook: Attempting to whip up hate towards Muslim and Arab communities as a pretext for disastrous wars abroad, and violence and civil rights violations at home. It’s pathetic, and we must defeat it.

Everyone in America should feel free to worship without fear. Religious freedom does not only apply to a select group of faiths. Every Member of Congress took an oath to support the Constitution. Smearing an entire religion as dangerous is in direct violation of that oath.

Multiple Republicans in Congress post openly anti-Muslim statements At least four congressional Republicans have expressed anti-Islamic sentiments on social media in the wake of the Iran War and recent violent attacks in the U.S.

The Republican Party's descent into open Islamophobia is not just disgusting β€” it's also completely un-American. Muslims have been part of the American experiment since before this country began. We will not let the GOP smear millions of Muslim Americans in order to distract from Trump's failures.

Stars & Stripes is one of the best examples (if not the best) of a successful, publicly-funded, editorially independent newspaper. The model could be the future of journalism. Therefore, the Trump administration wants to kill it.

Gen. Dan Caine, Joint Chiefs chair, told Trump that an American attack could prompt Iran to close the Strait of Hormuz. He didn't listen.

β€œThe president told his White House team that Tehran would likely capitulate before closing the strait, the world’s most vital shipping lane”

How a Decades-Old Loophole Lets Billionaires Avoid Medicare Taxes Some of Wall Street’s richest and most powerful figures are using a legal loophole to avoid paying millions of dollars in taxes earmarked for health care, a ProPublica investigation found.

Billionaires are using a loophole to avoid Medicare taxes.

Closing it β€” and eliminating other ways around the tax for wealthy business owners β€” could raise more than $250 billion over 10 years for the program.
