If this country was truly “pro-life,” we would have Medicare for All, a Green New Deal, gun reform, universal child care, and a living wage. The right-wing agenda isn’t about “life.” It’s about control.

⚠️ Trump is putting our Roadless Areas on the chopping block. We can’t let that happen. 📢 The time to take action to protect nearly 45 million acres of roadless National Forest lands is NOW. Call or write your representatives and tell them to keep Roadless Areas as they are – Roadless!

Kamala Harris nailed it. We warned everyone the stakes were too high to hand the guy built for Project 2025 another shot — but noooo. Ever have one of those mornings you just want to throw the window open and yell, FUCK YOU ALL? Yeah, that.

Trump’s rule isn’t chaos—it’s architecture. Elections tilted, agencies captured, militias emboldened, markets destabilized. Each feeds the other until crisis itself becomes the scaffolding of power.

💯% correct but I’d like a little more fight and direction from the Minority Leader of the U.S House of Representatives.

Cory Booker has come the closest of any Democrat this year to being the leader of the party, and maybe other Democrats will step up with as much verve and creativity to convince me otherwise.

The Trump Administration Accidentally Texted Me Its War Plans
U.S. national-security leaders included me in a group chat about upcoming military strikes in Yemen. I didn’t think it could be real. Then the bombs started falling.

As a child, the public library was a place I could go to read books, watch movies, and to safely wait for a ride home. It is an integral part of our communities. Consider contacting your Senators about the cuts to IMLS.

Call or write your Dem Senators today! Schumer must be replaced. Here is a good scrip to use if you don’t know what to say.
