What's a possible legal outcome of states challenging this? Could there be a situation where these cuts affect red states but not blue states?

Kilmar Abrego Garcia describes being tortured in the El Salvador mega prison, where Trump sent him without due process — admittedly by mistake.

As un-American as it gets. And others are still there.

RANDI WEINGARTEN: Trump's decision to gut the Education Department is not only illegal, it's wrong It is hard to imagine how 7.5 million kids with disabilities, 26 million kids from low-income families or 13 million young people who get financial aid for college won’t be disserved.

Teachers will be laid off. Class sizes will grow. And students with the fewest resources and greatest needs will pay the highest price.

💡New article out on strikes! I draw on interviews with ever inspiring Starbucks union activists and data from the @laboraction.bsky.social to demonstrate how workers and union activists organize different types of strikes in the United States.

SpaceX just landed a $5.92B contract with the Pentagon for Space Force rocket launches — the largest contract among the three firms who secured deals to send satellites into orbit.

While DOGE cuts essential services for you, Musk is getting a taxpayer-funded windfall.

Tonight we learned that it was indeed Andry, the gay man sent to El Salvador because of his “mom” and “dad” tattoos, who an American journalist saw sobbing as guards slapped him repeatedly and shaved his head.

He is an innocent. And Trump sent him to a torture prison.

Bring them back!

Being able to heat your home in the winter is not a luxury. It is a matter of life and death.

Trump and Musk’s decision to arbitrarily fire every worker in the office that helps working class and low income people heat their homes is outrageous.

Trump’s Labor Secretary Pick Turns Out to Be Super Anti-Labor Surprise, surprise: Former representative Lori Chavez-DeRemer supports anti-union “right to work” laws and rejects a national minimum-wage hike.

Who would have thought. An anti-union rich guy gets elected president and appoints an anti-union labor secretary who supports anti-union laws. I'm shocked.

We stand with them.
This is an appalling, illegal abuse of power by a billionaire who gets $$ of federal largesse. A billionaire who doesn’t need federal services.
Should Presidents try to make things more efficient? Yes.
This is not that. It’s evisceration

When firms like Apple and Google take the hint and give up their DEI programs, that's the result.

If corporations don't track how many minority employees they hire, that number will stay low. That's the unfortunate reality.

I doubt that the US unionization rate can make up for this.

But what Trump and Musk are doing isn't about corporate DEI. Just like anti-CRT laws aren't about CRT.

Trump wants the government and corporations to hire fewer women and black people. That's basically all this is

From a historical perspective, there's some truth to that. After the Regan admin started union busting in the open, corporations stopped pretending that "we have great relationship with our union." Instead,"We are committed to diversity" became a public relations go-to.

Republicans came up with a strategy: every time they want to take down a part of public education, they repeat the magic words "Marxism," "transgenderism," and "green new deal."

Not sure if it's a winning strategy, but it's a strategy.

Two Gender Executive Order Signed by President Trump: Explained President Donald Trump's executive order essentially eliminates all genders other than male and female amongst other topics. The order also aims to eliminate gender ideology.

If there were only two genders, homeboy wouldn't have to sign executive orders against all the other genders 🤷‍♂️

As schools brace for Trump's immigration raids, Dems split over how to respond A mixed response underscores the political challenges some of the largest Democratic enclaves are facing as they confront Trump’s toughened immigration actions.

Let’s be clear: not in schools. The anxiety this has caused all parents, educators & children is cruel & counterproductive . That’s why we wrote the President & asked him to change course. www.politico.com/news/2025/01...
