My wife and I visited the African-American Museum in D.C. a year ago. It was overwhelming — and unforgettable. We left knowing we’d be back.

Deaths from heart disease down 75%, that’s NIH. Deaths from stroke down 75%, that’s NIH. HIV/AIDS no longer a death sentence, that’s NIH. 99% of FDA approved drugs in the last decade, that’s NIH. Please show this video to anyone who doesn’t understand why the NIH is so important.

My suggestion for White House lawn signs.

The USDA has withdrawn a plan to impose stronger safety regulations limiting salmonella levels in raw poultry. Who was the biggest donor to Trump's inauguration fund? Pilgrim’s Pride — one of the largest chicken processors in the country. See how this works?

Don’t miss this powerful interview with Josh—he breaks down the complicated voucher system in a way that actually makes sense. His take on the religious impact, grounded in his own beliefs, is honest, respectful, and deeply compelling. A must-read for anyone who cares about public education.

How bloody disgusting...Trump and MAGA are not what we are.

The federal government plans to eliminate services for LGBTQ youth who call 988, the national suicide and crisis hotline, according to a Health and Human Services budget draft leaked last week.

Frengel Reyes Mota, a 24yo father raising his 9 year-old stepson as his own was abducted by Trump & sent to a Salvadoran torture mill. “I need help for my father. My father is very, very good people.” "He’s the most beautiful person. If you need something, he’ll be there for you," said his wife.

Odd, how the United States doesn't have enough money to give sick veterans healthcare, impoverished seniors Social Security, or hungry schoolkids lunches, but it does have enough money to pay a Central American dictator millions to torture American residents in his brutal concentration camp.

Stories like this are going to disappear because when NIH funding dries up, there will be no more new immunotherapies. More folks should have voted for the black lady

🤣🤣

SecDef Hegseth is lowering the bar for war crimes. Now F47 intends to invade Panama. I remember when Carter gave control of the canal to the Panamanians. They had threated to sabotage the canal so no one would be able to use it for years, crippling world commerce for years. This doesn't end well!

Trump has stopped sharing intelligence and paused military aid with Ukraine. He claims he’s trying to make peace and end the war, but all he’s really doing is weakening Ukraine and strengthening Putin. Trump is a Russian asset. (The Harbor Building, Los Angeles)

Rachel Maddow Exposes Trump's Putin Puppet Strings: Rachel Maddow made it clear that only one person benefits from Trump turning on Ukraine and it is Putin.
