Affordable housing isn’t about charity. It’s not even about economics. Housing is: - healthcare - education - climate policy - economic policy Housing is everything policy. A home shouldn’t be a privilege. It's something we all need to thrive. Get housing right and everything else gets easier.

Home should be a sanctuary: a safe place to grow, learn, and breathe clean air. Yet, 1 billion live in slums, often in flood zones or heat traps. Climate change worsens this, displacing millions into precarious housing where safety is a luxury, not a guarantee. #ClimateJustice #HousingRights

Thank you to @drrosena.bsky.social for raising a question at PMQs about the suitability of temporary accommodation and the impact on children's health and mortality. Better standards would make TA safer and more secure for children.

The Minnesota Massacres by ICE of Renee Good and Alex Pretti show how our life and liberty can be ripped away in an instant. Don’t let the government assassinate more of us: Call and email your Senators this week to demand they defund ICE and tell them to vote no on DHS funding.
For years, I have sought to amplify the stories of survivors of massacres, victims of torture and rape, families torn apart by exploitation & violence at the hands of Wagner mercenaries. These are not abstract atrocities. They are the lived realities of miners, women & children
As of today, it’s been one year since Virginia Giuffre’s passing. Her courage has inspired so many survivors and their families, as well as myself and other leaders to keep fighting for accountability for the monsters who committed these horrific crimes. Thank you, Virginia.

“Washington, DC is now a totally safe city. And you can walk down any street in Washington, and you’re going to be just fine. And I want to thank the National Guard.” – Trump yesterday, lying that Washington, DC hasn’t had a murder in 6 months. There had been 62 murders in DC the last six months.

So far, this trip feels heavy on pageantry and light on substance. Plenty of cordial exchanges, but few tangible deliverables. Maybe that changes tomorrow. But at the moment, Trump seems to view a good meeting with Xi as the goal itself.

On the night of June 3, Ukraine struck Russia's St. Petersburg Oil Terminal. As reported by Ukraine's President Zelenskyy, the St. Petersburg Oil Terminal, which supports Russia's war effort, was hit overnight. Another target was an enterprise in Russia's Tambov region that produced weapons.
🇺🇸 Trump openly acknowledges his shifting temperament and “indecisiveness” in politics: 📌 “I might give you an answer now, and then 20 minutes later go into the Oval Office and realize my answer was already wrong. Everything changes, you know. Facts change.”
Today, we joined 15 states suing to block the Trump Admin’s unlawful overhaul of the childhood immunization schedule. Trump and RFK Jr. are putting children at risk by ignoring science and bypassing federal law. We're taking action to protect families, support doctors, and uphold the rule of law.
Of course, Trump won't give up on his $1.8bn fund for Jan 6 rioters (ultimately, we suspect, for himself). He's never accepted a no, certainly no democratic decision (Jan 6 alone is evidence enough). He'll rename it & try again, with less publicity, more lying, better arm-twisting. Jon Karl for ABC:
