Nexstar needs the approval of Trump’s FCC for a $6.2 billion acquisition of a rival TV station operator. Nexstar told Disney that they would not air Jimmy Kimmel on their stations. We need Congress to investigate this shady deal.

Meta also let their AI "engage a child in conversations that are romantic or sensual" and is launching a super PAC to attack politicians that support AI safety rules. Big Tech is trying to buy politicians who will let them test dangerous AI on people without consequence.

A new Demand Progress Action poll of NY-10 voters found that AIPAC has a net negative favorability rating of -40. Meanwhile, Jewish Voice for Peace has a net positive favorability of +30. The ground on Israel has shifted rapidly and the establishment is struggling to catch up.

Hakeem Jeffries is dangerously misreading the balance of power when he disparages @vanhollen.senate.gov for calling out his failure to endorse @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social. Recent polling found that in NY-10, Dem voters were 4x more likely to support a candidate endorsed by Mamdani than Jeffries.

BREAKING: A new Demand Progress Action & @DataProgress poll of likely Dem primary voters in NY-10 finds that @bradlander.bsky.social would defeat Rep. Dan Goldman in a hypothetical primary, 52-33%

In addition to the infamous birthday card, Epstein's birthday book had a photo of him w/ a handwritten caption joking that he sold Trump a "fully depreciated" woman. Tell your representative to release the rest of the files! Go to ReleasetheFiles(dot)org or call 909-321-5643 to connect w/ offices.

The @wsj.com uncovered a birthday card for Epstein w/ Trump's signature—the same card that he said didn't exist. We must release the Epstein files! Go to ReleasetheFiles(dot)org or call 909-321-5643 to connect w/ offices after entering your zip code.

Yesterday: Big Tech CEOs lined up at the White House to heap praise on Donald Trump. Today: Trump's FTC drops its defense of a rule stopping employers from banning their workers from taking jobs with a competitor.

This morning, Trump tried to downplay the Epstein situation as a "now dead" "hoax." Here in reality, more than 25K people in 24 hours have signed the Demand Progress petition asking Congress to release the files. It’s time to stop the denials and listen to the American people.

President Trump is breaking in the newly renovated White House Rose Garden by inviting Big Tech execs who are trying to buy immunity from our government.

As a Big Tech-sponsored abundance conference kicks off today in DC, yet another poll finds that voters overwhelmingly prefer populist politics that targets corporations and billionaires over abundance politics focused on red tape and regulations.

Speaker Johnson keeps saying that the Massie-Khanna bill to release the Epstein files will violate the privacy of Epstein’s victims. THIS IS A LIE. The bill has specific protections for the victims’ private information and all the victims speaking today support it!

The White House keeps releasing mostly the same Epstein files over and over, which are roughly 1% of the material they actually have. Tune in at 10:30 AM ET to hear some of Epstein's survivors in their own words and hear why we need full transparency.

Speaker Johnson keeps trying to make it look like Congress is doing something about the Epstein files while still keeping them under wraps. We all deserve answers. More than 200k+ people have signed our petition and made calls to release the Epstein files.

Russ Vought, the corporate crony tasked with dismantling the CFPB is now doing the same thing to USAID.

Today, Demand Progress & 13 groups sent a letter in support of an amendment from @senlummis.bsky.social & @wyden.senate.gov that would require the Pentagon to use end-to-end encrypted communications tech.

OpenAI's ChatGPT discouraged a suicidal teen from seeking help. OpenAI's president is helping fund a $100+ million super PAC network to fight commonsense safeguards on AI. Big Tech is trying to buy politicians who will let them keep preying on the American people.

Today, @politico.com reported that Meta is starting a super PAC to oppose AI regulations. Earlier this month @reuters.com reported that Meta let their AI chatbots flirt with minors and lead a stroke victim to his death. We must stop Big Tech's selfish drive to stop commonsense AI safeguards.

Don’t let Trump privatize the National Weather Service. Protect government services from a corporate takeover!

Demand Progress Education Fund Special Advisor Kate Oh: “A prosecutor who so flagrantly disregards his ethical and professional obligations and tramples over the First Amendment rights of the press should not be empowered to enforce the laws of our nation."

Investigate ICE prisons now! Protect immigrants from brutal ICE abuses.

Big Tech is trying to get Congress to prevent states and localities from enforcing their AI laws. Trump's “AI Action Plan” could bar states with the wrong "AI regulatory climate" from getting federal funds. And the FTC is poised to hand Facebook a corporate pardon.

“The Bismarck, yup, in all his glory” When Trump’s nominee to be the new Bureau of Labor Statistics commissioner recorded a podcast promoting Project 2025, his chosen backdrop was an infamous Nazi battleship.

Demand Progress supports the Land of the Free Act because no president should be able to leapfrog bedrock constitutional rights and declare someone a threat to the nation on a whim.

Sign the petition: Don’t let Trump privatize and destroy Social Security!

FBI Director Kash Patel in 2023 when asked why the FBI won’t release the Epstein files: “Simple, because of who’s on that list.” Tell your representative to release the Epstein files by calling 909-321-5643 or going to ReleasetheFiles(dot)org.

"The days of deferring to Big Tech talking points about 'innovation' and 'uncertainty' are over." We sent a letter urging Senate Leader Schumer to side with the American people and not Big Tech.

TODAY, @sanders.senate.gov will force votes on two resolution to limit arms sales to Israel. The votes come as more and more policymakers are finally acknowledging the horror and violence Israel is inflicting on Gaza.

Speaker Johnson is lying. The [email protected] bill has clear protections for the victims. They are trying to responsibly uncover the Epstein files while Johnson is trying to kill the bill and keep them hidden.

Trump and his crypto cronies are trying to reshape our economy so that they get richer and you get more chaos.

Earlier this month, Republicans and Democrats in Congress overwhelmingly voted to reject an AI moratorium that would have wiped out state AI laws. Today, Trump announced executive actions that include a zombie AI moratorium. Big Tech and Trump keep putting profits over people.

First, Speaker Johnson tried to introduce a phony, nonbinding resolution to keep the Epstein coverup going. Now he’s canceling votes altogether. Tell you representative to release the Epstein files by calling 909-321-5643 or going to ReleasetheFiles(dot)org.

Last night, Speaker Johnson introduced a nonbinding Epstein resolution that makes Republicans look like they're addressing this crisis while still keeping the files under wraps. This is a distraction from Rep. Thomas Massie & @rokhanna.bsky.social's petition to release the Epstein files.

"Judge Artau seems eager to facilitate Trump’s unconstitutional antics in exchange for a job" instead of "safeguarding us against President Trump’s frivolous attacks on the free press, the First Amendment and the rule of law," @seth-stern.bsky.social said in @demandprogress.bsky.social.

Demand Progress and @freedom.press filed an ethics complaint against Edward L. Artau, a Florida judge who was nominated by President Trump to a federal district court after delivering a favorable ruling for Trump in his defamation lawsuit against the Pulitzer Board.

Just a week after Grok declared itself to be "MechaHitler"

Big Tech and their cronies in Congress are still trying to wipe out all state AI laws even as a new poll shows that 87% of Trump voters support guardrails to protect people from AI. What Big Tech is trying to do with AI is dangerous and wildly unpopular.

Former federal prosecutors say Emil Bove, Trump's nominee for a lifetime federal judgeship, “has demonstrated a willingness to ignore his oath to the Constitution and to disregard the Rule of Law in an effort to conform to every possible whim of the President.”

A federal court vacated the FTC's Click to Cancel rule that would have made it easier to cancel abusive memberships and subscriptions. The FTC must do everything possible to restore the rule.

Tell Congress: Stop Trump’s secret, masked police and his authoritarian mass deportation policy!

If Big Tech tries to nullify and block AI safeguards again, we will be waiting.

BREAKING: The U.S. Senate just voted to strike a provision in the so-called "One Big Beautiful Bill" that would have prevented states from enforcing AI safeguards for a decade. This is a massive defeat for Big Tech billionaires who want to sic predatory AI on Americans.
