"We will have more intense flooding events, the water quality would go down, fish species like trout would suffer, and the tourism dollars for local towns will be affected too." Gutting the Roadless Rule would hurt all of us while enriching polluters who destroy our planet for profit.

NEW: Democratic oyster farmer Graham Platner is the candidate best positioned to defeat Susan Collins in Maine's Senate race, according to a poll of likely voters conducted by Zenith Research for More Perfect Union.

Oregon Gov. Tina Kotek has ordered state agencies to take “any and all steps necessary” to fast-track solar and wind permits that must break ground by next year or likely miss out on a federal tax credit Congress is ending. With @opb.org

In America, we don’t have kings – it’s kind of our whole thing. 🚫👑 Millions turned out for No Kings in June— one of the largest protest days in U.S. history. On October 18th, we’ll be even louder, stronger, and we won’t stop here. RSVP here:

The Trump administration's coal lease sales in Wyoming and Montana completely flopped this week. Forcing people to use coal is like requiring Americans to travel by horse and buggy. Coal is a relic of the past that is not coming back no matter how hard Trump tries.

Elon Musk is now worth over $500 billion. That means his net worth has gone up by $100 billion in less than a year. Tax. The. Damn. Rich.

As America struggles, Donald Trump spent his weekend golfing at his Virginia country club while nearly two million federal workers either labor without pay or sit at home with empty accounts. He engineered this shutdown himself and now refuses to end it. open.substack.com/pub/demcastu...

"If Kennedy and his allies truly want to Make America Healthy Again, they should start by regulating the industries that are making us sick." Watch what they do, not what they say.

The government may be closed for you but it is still very much open for billionaire CEOs and polluters

"A war from within" ???? The President of the United States is openly talking about waging war against US cities because he doesn't like their mayors and governors. This is how a dictator talks.

One thing that comes through awfully clearly in these ICE videos is how many of these goons gravitated toward the job because being able to assault people with impunity is a big thrill for them.

Parody account but spot on!

Complaining on social media accomplishes nothing! Vote november 4! If you need to register to vote or update your registration, here are the links to do so! Do it today as deadlines start hitting on sunday!

Who thinks the entire GOP has betrayed America?

It turns my stomach to hear the sanctimonious outpourings by politicians and religious leaders who peddle hate of asylum seekers, women, minorities and dissenters. Given credence by MSM.

@governor.ca.gov nails it Can all Governors start saying it how it is please This has to stop now or it won't end well

MAGA Republicans have officially shut down the government. The harm and chaos this is causing was completely avoidable. Republicans must end their government shutdown now by passing a budget that protects health care and affirms Congress's power of the purse.

Isn’t declaring war on your own country enough grounds to get him handcuffed and tried for treason? - Pattybluehayes

The sheer stupidity on display, paired with enthusiastic malice, really is exhausting. (The quote: James Baldwin, "No Name in the Street," published in 1972, page 149).

The same guy telling you Portland is war-ravaged, told you Mexico was going to pay for the wall and people were eating your pets in Ohio.

A government shutdown is looming because Trump is refusing to negotiate! Senate Republicans are following him over the cliff. Spread the word about #TrumpsGovernmentShutdown LFG!

American business and media elites have the same relationship to American democracy as Yossarian had to the Pianosa officers club

Five corporations control 90% of the US media market. Airlines merged from 12 major carriers in 1980 to 4 today. Four giants control 80% of meat processing. A handful of companies control the pharmaceutical industry. The evidence of corporate concentration is everywhere.

Republicans are threatening a shutdown. Not to help working people. Not to lower costs. But to: 👉 Take away health care 👉 Protect billionaire tax breaks 👉 Put corporations over families

In his latest turn, President Trump is now trying to pressure a private corporation (Microsoft) to fire an individual executive that he does not like. Former Biden Deputy AG Lisa Monaco now a target.

The South Korean Ministry of Defense has awarded medals of merit to 11 officers for disobeying direct orders of superiors during the martial law fiasco, orders that they deemed to be contrary to the constitution and endangerment to democracy. www.chosun.com/english/nati...

This is utterly disgusting. ICE is hiring Palantir to help them in their immigrant surveillance and raids. No one should be allowed to profit off spying on immigrant communities. These are our neighbors!

Consumers have expressed growing frustrations about rising prices “eroding their personal finances.”

It’s a fact. Data from three decades of political violence reveals that right-wing terror attacks outnumber attacks from the left. And it’s not even close!

NEW: I arrived in the U.S. eight weeks ago to report on how the administration’s immigration crackdown was playing out from the front lines. What I saw Thursday was the culmination of ICE’s aggressive behavior. By @tilleckert.com

The Department of Defense has delayed cleanup of PFAS “forever chemicals” at nearly 140 military installations by as much as a decade due to Trump’s funding cuts. The government’s job is to protect people, not polluters.

There are more than 640 million acres of U.S. public lands that are open for all to enjoy and for wildlife to thrive. These lands are now under attack, however, by the Trump administration. Call your member of Congress at 202-224-3121 and tell them to protect public lands. #PublicLandsDay

👉 Have you heard? The government is on the brink of shutting down again. Republicans are willing to risk it all to raise healthcare costs and strip coverage from millions. Read more:
