Ending DEI practices in college admissions will expose an uncomfortable truth. Women now outperform men academically.

If universities stop trying to gender balance incoming classes but instead admit based on merit, they’ll reject men at higher rates than they do today.
Trump’s attack on DEI may hurt college men, particularly White men
The Trump administration’s ban on diversity, equity and inclusion also targets gender. The ban may impact gender balancing practices that often benefit college men.

Republicans use the "I'm not familiar with that" dodge several times a day now, and if a reporters or anchor isn't ready and willing to shut them down as soon as they try it, that means they're either incompetent at their job or a willing accomplice to the lies.

Either way, never trust them again.
If they pretend they haven’t heard about the story of the day, end the interview right there.

“I’m sorry, Senator, we wanted to get your perspective on this story, but it seems you’re not fully aware of what’s going on.”

Some good news: I'm proud to have secured the federal funds to make this happen.

In Congress, I’ll always go to the mat for public transit because it's always been a top priority for people in WA state.

Expanding light rail is a win for jobs, commutes, and so much more. 🚈🚈

ICE should not be free to inflict this kind of pain and suffering on innocent immigrants. This doesn’t make anyone safer.

Republicans must join Democrats in calling for oversight, accountability, and serious restraint.

I am working with Sen. Graham to pass legislation to help bring home thousands of Ukrainian children kidnapped by Russia. Standing with Ukraine means confronting the cruelty of taking kids from their families and making clear why we must stay united against Putin’s aggression.

Donald Trump just removed Martin Luther King Jr. Day and Juneteenth from the list of free entry days at national parks.

They are being replaced with Trump’s birthday.

There’s no telling how many similar stories are not being told for fear of retaliation.

By now, everyone should realize Trump is not going after violent criminals or the worst of the worst—he is terrorizing everyone, including U.S. citizens, and their loved ones.

According to a new study, members of Congressional leadership perform 47% better in stock market trades than their rank-and-file peers, thanks to access to nonpublic information.

Today would be a great day to ban ALL elected officials from trading stock, don't you think?

Trump’s USDA is threatening to withhold food stamp funding for 20 Democrat-controlled states if they don’t share recipients’ sensitive personal data.

Yes: Trump is weaponizing hunger against millions of Americans, including children, to score cheap political points.

Ending this recommendation will cost lives. RFK Jr. must answer to Congress.

This young woman has lived in America since she was 7.

On her way to visit family for Thanksgiving, she was abruptly detained, shackled, and deported to Honduras. It's not even clear if she had a deportation order.

This isn't going after criminals. It makes no one safer.
