I bet the Obama Presidential Library will have books.
BALDWIN: Do you think NIH should fund less cancer research?
RFK Jr: No, they should fund more, & one of the few agencies that got a raise in the budget was NCI
B: That increase is less than $1m for an institute with a $7b budget. That's a .01% increase. It wouldn't even cover one additional grant

GALLEGO: Earlier today, you told Sec. Kennedy that Trump never demanded you to cut interest rates. Is that your sworn testimony?
WARSH: That is, senator.
GALLEGO: Okay. Well someone here is lying then. Because Trump confirmed he pressed you on interest rate cuts.

We must not become numb to this corruption.
And the do nothing GOP Congress continues to enable their clearly mentally ill leader to the detriment of not only the US, but the world!
Meanwhile, ICE has not slowed down. They are just going about it quietly, which means the violence we saw before was performative, encouraged & unnecessary.

Eight children in Shreveport. Ages 3 to 11. Seven killed by their own father, who also shot their mother.
This is what domestic violence looks like when the abuser has a gun. DC refuses to act.
If elected to Congress, I'll treat this like the emergency it is. #mepolitics

BREAKING: Rep. Sheila Cherfilus-McCormick has resigned from Congress just before the House Ethics Committee was set to announce sanctions.
She faced allegations of misusing millions in COVID relief funds tied to her family business, along with multiple campaign finance violations.
The President of the United States is mentally ill and needs to be removed from office.
Ossoff: "You were talking earlier about Jared Kushner. The guy leading our diplomacy in the Middle East is bringing in billions from Middle Eastern princes and sheiks and going around the region asking for billions more while he conducts nuclear diplomacy on behalf of the country. It's obscene."
So jealous of you Illinois folks today. Outlawing book bans is a hell of a step forward.
Donald Trump on potentially committing war crimes in Iran:
“It’s not my choice.”
Whose choice is it then?!
This guy is unfit.
Period.
Wonder what the president will make worse today.
Hoo boy, that was a tough listen. Two women in a department store, browsing racks right next to me, discussing 'immigrants'. I had to walk away when one said '...and you know what? We'll never get them all out of here either'.
There's just no helping some people. 🙄 #Its2026
I want to watch this movie. I'm really impressed with Anne Hathaway, as usual.

HIRONO: The rising prices of energy -- is that something you didn't contemplate happening before the president declared his illegal war?
CHRIS WRIGHT: No. We knew exactly what would happen
HIRONO: It doesn't seem like it, because the president doesn't understand how to open the strait
As people celebrate 4/20, let’s be honest about the contradiction: In many states, marijuana is legal. In too many lives, the consequences are still permanent. People are still carrying records. Still locked out of jobs, housing, and opportunity - for doing what is now sold legally in storefronts. That’s not justice. That’s hypocrisy. State laws have changed, federal law hasn’t. And thus: Small businesses are squeezed. Research is restricted. A growing industry is taxed and regulated in some places - generating real revenue - while the communities most harmed by prohibition are still waiting to be restored. We should be building a fair, well-regulated national framework that de-schedules, taxes responsibly, expands research, and reinvests in the very communities that paid the highest price. Progress has been made - because people fought for it. But we are not done. 4/20 shouldn’t just be a celebration. It should be a call to action. Expunge records. End the disparities. Empower small businesses Pass comprehensive federal reform.
