BREAKING: A federal judge in New York has ordered President Trump to pay a $5 million judgment plus almost $800,000 in interest owed to E. Jean Carroll after a jury held him liable for sexually abusing and defaming her. https://t.co/v3EVveb48G
🚨 BREAKING: DOGE has officially been shut down after failing to achieve its stated goals.
Analysts now estimate the initiative ultimately increased the federal deficit rather than reducing it, despite being launched as a government efficiency effort.
THIS CANNOT BE ALLOWED TO HAPPEN!
Trump wants to cut down Washington DC's oldest grove of cherry trees along and eliminate the public biking path and picnic areas so he can build a golf course on public land, using public dollars, and taking spaces away from the public.
MAJOR BREAKING: Thomas Massie will be giving a Notice of Intent to bring forth a Privileged Resolution to release of ALL names of U.S. Representatives who have used tax dollars to settle sexual misconduct claims.
I support this. Do you?
BREAKING: A federal judge has permanently blocked the Trump administration from enforcing an executive order signed last year that required proof of citizenship to register to vote and demanded mail-in ballots be received by Election Day. https://t.co/I78dhdVBvz
The number of people enrolled in Medicaid and ACA plans has fallen by more than 5 million in the past year.
That's in large part thanks to sweeping cuts from Trump's Big Ugly Bill, which has become so unpopular he's all but stopped talking about it.
The 103-year-old Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool has survived wars, protests, and more than a century of history. Yet after a $14 million taxpayer-funded makeover, it turned bright green with algae in a matter of days.
Trump will always be a failure.
He sent 13 service members to their deaths over “not very valuable stuff”?
168 Iranian school girls.
Thousands of civilians killed.
Our bases badly damaged.
Stockpiles depleted.
$80 billion price tag.
$6 gas.
For “not very valuable stuff”?
Y’all, not to be a huge nerd but for the reflecting pool you would need a minimum of about 8,000 liters of 12% hydrogen peroxide to reach the 50 parts per million concentration to kill algae…
Is this what happens when you have 0 scientists in your administration?

BREAKING: IT'S MURDER! Death of a 31-year-old woman dropped by ICE at a Pittsburgh bus stop in freezing weather with no coat ruled a homicide!
The Allegheny County Medical Examiner’s office has ruled the death by hypothermia of Haitian immigrant Daphy Michel, who spent more than 30 hours shivering at a Pittsburgh bus stop after being dumped by ICE, a homicide.
Three days earlier, Michel had been in Washington County Jail on misdemeanor charges that a judge dismissed. Her family was waiting to pick her up in Charleroi – just a 40-minute drive away.
But because ICE had placed a detainer on her, instead of releasing her to loved ones, authorities handed her over to immigration enforcement.
ICE fitted her with an ankle monitor, put her in their “Alternatives to Detention” program, and then dropped her off on the South Side of Pittsburgh, far from home, in February cold, wearing only light clothing. She never made it back.
“When you release someone like that that far from home, it’s a recipe for disaster,” Her attorney Joseph Murphy said. “She would have been in her own environment. She wouldn’t have been sitting around a bus stop [with no coat] in February, and she’d be alive now.”
The death at the hands of ICE was no accident. It was the direct result of cold, bureaucratic cruelty, with immigration officials choosing enforcement theater over basic human decency.
County Executive Sara Innamorato said the death was “a tragedy that appears that with a little humanity, it could have been completely avoidable.”
After the death, friends and family gathered at the bus stop where she died and held a vigil for her (photo, right).
This horror is part of a pattern under Trump’s ICE that hasn’t dissipated since the agency has fallen from the headlines: they still treat people as disposable, and appear to get perverse satisfaction making life as difficult as possible for the people they harass, like dropping vulnerable individuals in unfamiliar places with no support.
Michel didn’t deserve to die alone in the cold on a bench because the system cared more about optics than people. Her death should haunt every official who signed off on this cruel process. Each one should be worried about the pendulum of justice swinging in their direction now that the ruling is official.
If this preventable, heartbreaking tragedy makes you furious, like and share this post.
No one should die abandoned in brutal winter's cold because ICE decided their life didn’t matter.
