Durbin to Bhattacharya: "I can't understand it. I disagree w/ this admin on so many things. But this is the one that really gets to me personally. To think this nation would walk away from medical research. For God's sake...cancer, your budget requests a 38% cut to the National Cancer Institute"

The push back against the Trump / Putin aligned global regressive movement continues strong.
Actor Barry Corbin was born in Lamesa in 1940. Probably best known for his roll as astronaut Maurice Minnifield in TV's Northern Exposure, I think my favorite Barry Corbin role was his turn as Roscoe Brown, sheriff July Johnson's bumbling deputy in Lonesome Dove. He was also great in Urban Cowboy.

Let’s grow the trade union movement.
(1/3) A string of Northern CA counties have recently passed or called for emergency resolutions asking the state to give local sheriffs the power to kill wolves. These actions are concerning on many levels, + these counties continue to churn out misinformation (+ blatant lies) about wolves.
AOC: Tom Homan said he was going to refer me to DOJ because I’m using my free speech rights in order to advise people of their constitutional protections… to that I say: Come for me… Do I look like I care?

NEW: Israel’s air force struck near Syria’s presidential palace early Friday, hours after warning Syrian authorities not to march toward Druze villages in the southern part of the nation.

Son of immigrants, Marco Rubio, calls human beings "despicable" and wants to dump them in other countries like trash.
