Walmart and McDonald’s are among the top employers of workers who rely on food stamps.

McDonald's CEO raked in $18.2M last year — over 1,000x the company's median employee pay.

Walmart's CEO pocketed $27.4M — 930x the company's median employee pay.

See the problem?

Today May 15th is Peace Officers Memorial Day. Statements like this are inflammatory, disrespectful and flat out lies. Not only did you betray law enforcement, but you sided with people who attacked us. You don't support law enforcement, you are are a criminal.

Dr. Carla Hayden has served as Librarian of Congress with honor and distinction, bringing our prized institution to new heights.
 
Trump’s outrageous, politically-motivated move to fire her is despicable. The Library of Congress belongs to the American people — NOT to Trump.

Sorry, why is the secretary of defense at an easter egg hunt?

Trump, convicted on multiple felonies, pardoned domestic terrorists and white nationalist gang members involved in Jan 6th.

Republicans want immigrants with no criminal records locked up while their violent criminals walk free.

That’s white supremacy, not public safety.
Rep. Dan Meuser on Abrego Garcia: "Maybe he's not a terrorist. But he's a potential terrorist. He's a terrorist watchlist person."

Harvard has set an example for other higher-ed institutions - rejecting an unlawful and ham-handed attempt to stifle academic freedom, while taking steps to make sure students can benefit from an environment of intellectual inquiry, rigorous debate and mutual respect. Let’s hope others follow suit.
