I can confirm it is raining in Washington, DC.

America has always been a work in progress. Every generation must choose unity over division and do its part to protect our democracy and expand opportunity for all. Together, we can build a stronger, more just nation. Happy Independence Day. 🇺🇸

Job growth slowed last month. Employers added a less-than-expected 57,000 jobs in June. That’s far below the 129,000 jobs added in May and comes amid high anxiety about the economy. Average hourly earnings increased by 3.5, failing to keep up with inflation. www.politico.com/news/2026/07...

1 year ago today, Trump signed his One Big Beautiful Bill Act into law. It includes $1,000,000,000,000 in tax cuts for the top 1%, while slashing SNAP and Medicaid budget by $1,100,000,000,000.

You know what they called the people who supported & propagandized for nazis in WW2? They called them nazis

This whole thing is a little on the nose

This is a clear example of a compound hazard event (i.e., amplified societal impacts). Severe thunderstorms knocked out power for nearly 250,000 people last night, and many are now seeing near-record heat today while still without electricity. Orange: heat advisories Pink: excessive heat warnings
