FROM SCOTUS:

Children born in the United States to parents unlawfully or temporarily present are "subject to the jurisdiction" of the United States and are citizens at birth under the Fourteenth Amendment's Citizenship Clause.

[Rep. Mike Levin @RepMikeLevin]

Let’s be clear about what the Trump Administration just tried to do.

Trump’s Justice Department issued subpoenas to force reporters from The Washington Post and The Wall Street Journal to testify under oath before a grand jury. Not because those reporters did anything wrong, but because they reported the truth about this Administration. Trump wanted to know who talked.

One of those reporters, Ellen Nakashima of the Washington Post, covers Trump’s intelligence officials and the Iran war. Both outlets fought back in court, and the government backed down.

This Administration has also raided a reporter’s home, threatened to revoke TV stations’ broadcast licenses over coverage it didn’t like, and made it easier to secretly search journalists’ phone records. This is not a president who believes in accountability. It is a president who is trying to make sure no one can report on what he’s doing.

A free press exists to hold power accountable. That is precisely why this Administration keeps trying to undermine it.

Bayer donated $1 million to Donald Trump's inauguration. Then Trump’s Justice Department went all the way to the Supreme Court to help Bayer fight a cancer patient who says Roundup made him sick.

This week, the Supreme Court sided with Bayer 7-2, and the more than 160,000 Americans who have sued Bayer, claiming that Roundup gave them cancer, just lost their ability to sue.

The people who wrote the check to Trump got everything they wanted, but the people who got sick got nothing.

Elon is now trying to shift the blame for dismantling USAID, America's greatest soft-power tool, by endorsing claims that he was "just an adviser."

Yet when USAID was being dismantled, Musk proudly declared: "We spent the weekend feeding USAID into the wood chipper." The man even posed with a chainsaw on stage afterward.

A new Lancet study estimates that USAID programs prevented nearly 92 million deaths between 2001 and 2021, including more than 30 million children under five.

If the 2025 cuts continue, researchers project more than 14 million additional preventable deaths by 2030, including 4.5 million children. That's a death toll on the scale of the First World War, driven by cuts to humanitarian aid rather than a global war.

These broligarchs are completely detached from reality. They have zero accountability, and seem unable to grasp that their decisions have real-world consequences measured in millions of lives.

🐶 Hero Border Collie Tsunami saves nearly 100 lives after Venezuela earthquake

The 9-year-old rescue dog discovered dozens of survivors trapped under the rubble.

This will be his final mission — after this, Tsunami is retiring.

Once saved from starvation himself, he became one of the best search-and-rescue dogs, working at disaster sites in Venezuela, Turkey, and Syria.

Absolute legend. ❤️

Russians are fleeing Crimea, shocked that the war their country started has finally reached them. This is likely only the beginning of their nightmare. Ukraine has turned the dial to 10 and is now shaping the course of this war.

[Volodymyr Zelenskyy / Володимир Зеленський @ZelenskyyUa]

Our warriors began Ukraine’s Constitution Day with great accuracy. Last night, our long-range sanctions reached two oil refineries in Russia. The Slavyansk oil refinery in the Krasnodar region was hit – about 300 kilometers from the frontline. We also reached a refinery in the Yaroslavl region, approximately 700 kilometers from our border.

We continue our operations that weaken Russia’s ability to wage this war. Each of our long-range sanctions means fewer resources serving Russia’s war machine, and another step toward peace. We will continue to respond to Russian terror. I thank our warriors for these results! I am grateful to everyone who helps us. Everyone who defends Ukraine also upholds the power of the Constitution.

Ukraine now has 100,000 people with amputations.

Volodymyr Kuzmenko lost a leg. Bohdan Ivasyshyn lost an arm and an eye. Oleksandr Yaremenko lost a leg.

They are returning to life: wakeboarding, jujitsu, running, mountains, service — NYT. 1/

@BohuslavskaKate She nailed it...they(oligarchs)also laundered money for each other

[Kate from Kharkiv @BohuslavskaKate]

HOST: Do you think Trump is pro-Russian?

APPLEBAUM: I think he's pro-Putin. He admires leaders who have no checks and balances, who aren't part of democratic system, who are in control of the media.

He also had very long business relationship with Russians. They were among the most important investors in his apartments in the 1990s and 2000s.

He also has kind of idealized image of Russia. Funnily enough, I don't think it has anything to do with conservative values.

I think it's just because he likes this strongman ideal. And because he's grateful to Russians for having built his business, and maybe because he expects to do business with Russia in the future.

Detained by ICE on her way to Mass yesterday, Sr. Letty is reunited finally with Sr. Norma Pimental, Pope Francis used called Sr. Norma his “favorite nun.” Quite a moment that shows the human face of rounding up people randomly.

Hungary’s new prime minister has accused Viktor Orbán’s former government of hiding a budget deficit that would have topped 8% of GDP this year — more than double the declared target. https://t.co/NXrbSevpeP

Over 900 years of military experience has been lost due to Pete Hegseth's purge of 25 senior military officers.

APPLEBAUM: Clearly, Trump is somebody who was cultivated by Russians for many years. Clearly, when they talk to him, they spend lot of time thinking about how he can be manipulated, and he seems to respond. Trump is easy to manipulate if you know which buttons to push and so on.

Millions Lose ACA Coverage After Trump and Republicans Let Subsidies Expire

Axon makes Tasers, body cameras and police technology. Trump disclosed buying up to $5 million in its stock before ICE sought a $220 million Taser deal.
