College students and families deserve to know where their tuition money goes. The Tuition Transparency Act would require colleges and universities, including private institutions, to clearly explain how tuition revenue is spent, why tuition is increasing, and what mandatory fees actually fund.

Higher education is already expensive enough. Enough of institutions allocating funds to things that do not benefit students or faculty. More transparency. Stronger accountability. Better decisions for students and faculty.

A preliminary U.S. military investigation found that Washington was responsible for the deadly Tomahawk missile strike on the Iranian elementary school, which killed dozens of children. No other nation, only the U.S. uses Tomahawks in this war.

A Miami GOP secretary, Abel Alexander Carvajal, operated a group chat where the N-word was used over 200 times, and members celebrated the removal of an African-American activist from the FIU College Republicans. Disgusting, but not surprising.

Donald Trump when asked about potential attacks on American soil: “It's a part of war. It's part of war, whether people like it or not, that's the way it is." A war nobody wants. All to distract from the files and the fact he’s as guilty as it gets.

Ryan Schwank, a former lawyer for ICE, said training for new officers has been diminished to the point that it is "deficient, defective and broken." ICE is teaching cadets to violate the Constitution. Defective is an understatement. It's crimes against humanity.

He’s my representative 💔

Democratic Rep. Tom Suozzi has owned significant amounts of Palantir Technologies. In 2023, he bought between $1,001 and $15,000 in Palantir. By the end of 2024, he valued his Palantir stock at between $15,001 and $50,000. He has maintained those holdings ever since. Suozzi needs to be primaried.

The Supreme Court has struck down Donald Trump’s global tariffs. Chief Justice John Roberts authored the 6-3 ruling. Trump’s tariffs are unconstitutional and a tax on hardworking Americans.

The Department of Homeland Security is expanding its efforts to identify Americans who oppose ICE by sending tech companies legal requests for names, email addresses, telephone numbers and other identifying data behind social media accounts that criticize them. We no longer live in a free country.

She would make an INCREDIBLE POTUS

Moderator: So when you run for President, are you going to impose a wealth tax or a billionaire's tax? AOC: We don't have to wait for any one President to impose a wealth tax. I think that it needs to be done expeditiously. She didn’t deny running!

Donald Trump's tariffs cost the average American household $1,000 last year, according to research from the Tax Foundation. The cost is set to go even higher this year to $1,300 per household, should the existing tariffs remain in place. Trump is taxing and hurting hardworking Americans.

Shooting your daughter for disliking a pedo/pedo protector is INSANE

A British woman, Lucy Harrison, was shot dead by her Father while visiting his home in Texas, because she had argued with him about Donald Trump earlier that day. It’s MAGA that has Trump Derangement Syndrome.

The conditions at the Texas detention facility where Liam Ramos is being held are “absolutely abysmal,” according to attorney Eric Lee, who represents other families being held there: “They mix baby formula with water that is putrid. The food has bugs in it. The guards are often verbally abusive.”

Liam Ramos’ Mother addressed his deteriorating health: “Liam is getting sick because the food they receive is not of good quality. He has stomach pain, he’s vomiting, he has a fever and he no longer wants to eat.” This is inhumane treatment. He needs to be released now.

Liam Ramos, who was kidnapped by ICE Nazis in Minneapolis and brought to a detention facility in Texas, is very sick. His Mother said: “He has stomach pain, he’s vomiting, he has a fever and he no longer wants to eat.” His health is deteriorating and he needs medical attention. Release him now.

Greg Bovino has been removed from his role as Border Patrol “Commander at Large” and will return to El Centro California, where he is expected to retire soon. One step closer to nobody protecting him! He needs to be charged and prosecuted along with Noem, Homan, Miller, Trump and the entire regime.

Ted Cruz privately warned Donald Trump that Republicans would face a “bloodbath” in the midterms if prices kept rising, according to a secret recording. Trump responded by telling Cruz, “fuck you.” Ted Cruz is too much of a spineless coward to say it publicly.

A newly surfaced video appears to show the moments before an ICE Nazi fatally shot the man in Minneapolis, with the individual seemingly just recording on his phone as agents escalated the situation. He was murdered for recording their lawlessness.

Avery Torff reposted

Video of the shooting shows an ICE Nazi continuing to fire five shots at the man’s motionless body. Firing five shots into a motionless body is beyond outrageous and indefensible.

This is Liam Ramos. He’s five years old. He was taken by ICE Nazis and used as bait to arrest his parents, and he's currently being detained in Texas. This is straight up evil and indefensible. Abolish ICE.

Nekima Levy Armstrong has been arrested after helping lead a protest against immigration enforcement that disrupted a Sunday church service in St. Paul, Minnesota, where an ICE Nazi also serves as a pastor. Nekima is an American hero. Protect her.

Benjamin Netanyahu said he has agreed to join Donald Trump’s Board of Peace. Watch, it will be Trump, Netanyahu, and Putin. A so-called “Board of Peace” run by war criminals.

Kathy Hochul signed legislation requiring social media platforms to display warning labels that will provide information about the potentially dangerous impact that social media can have on young users’ mental health. This is a positive step forward. About damn time.
