An order issued this week by the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) gives guidance to federal adjudicators to only consider providing foreign nationals who are paroled into the country with work permits after “all relevant factors” are considered “on a case-by-case basis.” “USCIS will only consider employment authorization for parolees when, based on the facts and circumstances of each individual case, USCIS finds that a favorable exercise of disc

Twelve progressive groups joined together to launch a campaign on August 1 with a goal to pressure House Democrats to come out in support of President Trump’s impeachment.

Trump indicated that the suggestion was ridiculous. “Five years ago, the concept of even talking about this … cutting off aid to Israel because of two people that hate Israel and hate Jewish people — I can’t believe we’re even having this conversation,” he said. He condemned Democrats for defending Tlaib and Omar and their comments against Israel and the Jewish people. “I think any Jewish people that vote for a Democrat, I think it shows either a total lack of knowledge or great disloyalty,” he said. Trump was referring to “disloyalty” to fellow Jews, not to America — a claim that is distinct

Joe Biden won’t be among the parade of White House hopefuls in California this week, as he’s skipping the Democratic National Committee’s summer meeting to campaign in New Hampshire instead. The former vice president wants the nation’s first primary state mostly to himself as his closest competitors jockey for attention from hundreds of Democratic officials gathered in San Francisco for the party’s last national meeting before presidential voting begins in February.

Senator Elizabeth Warren apparently has a doppelganger — and the two met at a rally in Minnesota on Monday night. Warren’s lookalike, Stephanie Oyen, told the Globe that family members informed her in recent years that when she wears her wireless glasses, she bears a resemblance to the Massachusetts senator.

Planned Parenthood's affiliates will tell the Trump administration Monday that they will leave the federal family planning program rather than comply with new abortion restrictions.  The Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) had set a Monday deadline for Title X family planning grantees to prove they are complying with new rules banning providers from referring women for abortions. Planned Parenthood said Monday its affiliates cannot ethically comply with the changes, which it called a "gag rule" on health care providers.

Former Democratic presidential nominee MORE over his allegations that Google manipulated the 2016 elections in her favor. "Google manipulated from 2.6 million to 16 million votes for Hillary Clinton in 2016 Election!" Trump had claimed earlier in the day. Clinton pointed out that the study referenced by Trump was "debunked" and its methodology has been discredited.
