Why are they harassing U.S. citizens, too.
There are so many holes in DHS’s story it’s nuts. They say this woman was driving her boyfriend’s car, who they claim is undocumented.
ICE pulls her over, see she’s alone, know they are looking for a man, and still handcuff her while she screams “I am a US citizen,”.
Why is ICE harassing women?

The New Yorker reporter Ronan Farrow was correct when he said Donald Trump was involved in as many as 60 "catch and kill" operations during the 2016 presidential election in which Trump first won power, former Trump lawyer and fixer Michael Cohen said.

Trump pardons are no laughing matter.
Two themes seem to run through the Trump pardons:
Distain for white collar prosecutions generally
and links to campaign finance donors and campaign finance violators

This is outrageous.
Today’s vote guts newborn hepatitis B protections, ignores decades of science, and puts politics over kids’ health.
I’m a mom, nurse, and former CDC officer — and we need leaders who defend public health, not dismantle it.

I stand with the AMA and strongly oppose the decision by the CDC to end the universal birth-dose of the Hepatitis B vaccine for all newborns. This undercuts a proven strategy that has, for decades, protected infants from a virus that can cause chronic liver disease, cancer, and death.
The Chicago-based American Medical Association is blasting a federal vaccine advisory committee’s decision Friday to no longer recommend that all babies get the hepatitis B vaccine when they’re born.
Chicago-based American Medical Association slams committee’s hepatitis B vaccine recommendations
The government has long advised that babies be vaccinated against hepatitis B right after birth to prevent serious liver damage that can be caused by the infection.

The Times: Weeks of peace talks, revised US proposals, and a Trump envoy’s Kremlin visit failed to sway Putin, he remains committed to conquering Ukraine. The only clear result: Putin no longer fears Trump. Talks widened the rift between Europe and Washington, delighting Moscow.
