Trump said he told Vought: "Don’t send any money for daycare, because the United States can’t take care of daycare. That has to be up to a state. ... We have 50 states. We have all these other people. We’re fighting wars. We can’t take care of daycare."

A baby boy has become the first child in the UK to be born to a mother who received a womb from a deceased donor.
Hugo Powell was born in December, weighing 6lb 13oz (3.1kg), to Grace Bell and Steve Powell, following a landmark transplant that took place at Queen Charlotte’s and Chelsea Hospital, part of Imperial College Healthcare NHS Trust.
Donald Trump had the racist, bigoted audacity to post an AI-generated video depicting former President Barack Obama and former First Lady Michelle Obama as apes.
Most of us already know who Donald Trump is. We already know there are no bounds to how low he’s willing to go. We know that he has no moral compass. We know that he is a disgrace. So while his behavior is not shocking, it is certainly disgusting and disturbing.
But when will it be enough for those who continue to stand beside him? When will Republicans in Congress condemn his behavior? Your silence is complicity — and it is very loud.

President Trump has confirmed that Charlie Kirk has passed away after being shot in Utah.
May God have mercy on his soul, bless and protect his family, and may justice be done.
At moments like this, we must come together as Americans to reject hate and division. The death of Charlie Kirk is a tragic reminder that violence can never replace dialogue or democracy. Our hearts go out to the children who lost a father, the wife who lost a husband, and the rest of Mr. Kirk’s family.
Hoping this reaches @realDonaldTrump. I saw your confirmation that Charlie Kirk, someone who you loved, has died. During your first term, someone I loved, was murdered. My daughter Jaime was killed in the Parkland shooting. I had hoped to work with your administration then to reduce gun violence. I am sorry for your loss today. I would still love to work with you to stop the next one.

Republicans are trying to use a bogus study to restrict abortion medication—and they think no one will notice.
Thanks to Sen. @PattyMurray for letting FDA chief Marty Makary know that we won’t let the administration get away with lying to voters.
Fort Bragg has its name back.. but Trump Admin says it's now named after a WWII paratrooper, Roland Bragg, rather than the original namesake - confederate soldier Braxton Bragg.

Trump is out here trying to rewrite history YET again. Now he wants to remove slavery from the National Museum of African American History & Culture. This ain’t just about a museum—this is about erasing the pain, struggle, and resilience of our people. You can’t whitewash the truth just because it makes you uncomfortable.
