Yet again, President Trump and his allies are engaged in an unlawful and harmful use of military force in another American city. The people of Tennessee deserve leaders who respect the limits of their office and the rule of law. That's what we're fighting for in court.

They fired an FBI agent for having a pride flag two weeks ago

They don’t want to be called fascists, but Republicans are openly celebrating it. www.advocate.com/news/politic...

Trump's white house doesn't even condemn the comments in their statement instead they blame Democrats for Republicans being racist???

He literally signed the law that says furloughed workers have a right to backpay

President Trump lied on the campaign trail because he knew how deeply unpopular Project 2025 is. Now he's vowing to implement its agenda. Our team has been fighting it in court since Day 1 and we will continue doing so to protect people & the institutions they rely on.

Ted Cruz: “How about we all come together and say let's stop attacking p*dophiles." 🤔

Plain and simple: if the President wants to play games with the American people during a government shutdown, he will see us in court.

Democrats are in town on the eve of a shutdown. Notice the Republican side is empty they don't care about federal workers or the people they were elected to serve

President Trump spent $15 billion in taxpayer dollars to lose 200,000+ federal jobs and millions of combined years of experience. We lit up Washington, D.C. to expose the Trump-Vance administration’s reckless dismantling of the federal government.

"A college professor, represented by Democracy Forward, is suing the federal government to compel the release of Census data on sexual orientation and gender identity — data that both the professor and the legal nonprofit is key to protecting the civil rights of LGBTQ+ Americans."

RELEASE THE HOMAN FILES

If so, then this administration should have no issues responding to our @democracyforward.org FOIA to produce the recording of Mr. Homan's actions.

BREAKING: The Supreme Court will consider expanding Trump’s power to shape independent agencies by overturning 90-year-old precedent.

Trump really ran our economy into the ground in less than a year

Reminder: Republicans only care about free speech when it applies to them

Leader of the free world praises China’s judicial system. Terrifying.

JD Vance defended the U.S. military’s strike on an alleged drug vessel leaving Venezuela. Rand Paul is fuming. “JD “I don’t give a shit” Vance says killing people he accuses of a crime is the “highest and best use of the military.” Did he ever read To Kill a Mockingbird?” Paul wrote on X.

Another week means another Republican forgetting who was president in 2020

Trump inherited an economy that was called “the envy of the world” and ran it into the ground in less than a year

Hmmm I wonder who appointed Jerome Powell to the Federal Reserve???

Trump inherited a golden economy. Ran it into the ground. Now the cult says “nothing to see here”

Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey: "Of course, thoughts and prayers ... These kids were literally praying. And so we have to do a whole hell of a lot more than that right now. Words are not enough."

Democrats have won THREE special elections this year all with big over performances! There’s hope to defeat Joni Ernst in 2026!!!

Democrats break supermajority in Iowa senate in huge over performance!!!

BREAKING: Trump says he's removing Federal Reserve Gov. Lisa Cook

Remember when Trump said he'd bring down the cost of groceries and housing? Well instead he's relitigating constitutional debates from the 1980s as prices continue to rise

Just like how the Fire Nation wanted to “help” the Earth Kingdom

All that money in Trump’s big ugly bill for the border meanwhile been waiting over an hour to cross from Canada back to US

Newsom honestly might just be the one. Almost every other Dem has rolled over can’t name anyone who’s come this close to leading/uniting the party and country

President Trump cannot distract the American people from seeking transparency and accountability from their government. Judges, lawyers, and people across the country are recognizing the President's agenda for what it is – a farce.

Let me be clear: none of this is about immigration, it’s about cruelty and the targeting of people in vulnerable circumstances. To strip our clients of their rights and threaten them with deportation is a gross violation of the law and public trust.
