Trump & the GOP have:

-Killed CFPB rules saving consumers $15B in overdraft and credit card late fees
-Dropped 22 CFPB actions against corporate lawbreakers
-Halted $100M in restitution owed to student borrowers

They're on corporate predators' side, not yours.

Trump’s trade chaos is undermining our economy and hurting American families.

If Republicans have their way on tariffs and their huge tax bill, most Americans will see their taxes go up, while those on top get a big break.

We need a trade policy that puts working people first.

While the United States has plenty of real problems to deal with, Trump is ignoring them to manufacture fake emergencies.

Why?

He wants more power β€” and in the process, he’s subjecting millions to real harm.

America’s actual national emergency is Donald J. Trump.

Don’t let them scare you.

Don’t let them get you to give up hope.

This is what they want more than anything.

Their evil is never more alive than when we sleep.

There is more prize money than winning MLS Cup, a Concacaf Champions Cup spot, and it will only take seven games to do it.

I will never understand those who don’t treat this tournament seriously.

Long live the Open Cup!

Musk’s staffers have entered an independent government agency by force. Employees from DOGE are now inside the Washington offices of the United States Institute of Peace. This comes just days after agency representatives were unable to gain access to the building on Friday being blocked by lawyers.

For all those people who think β€œthe left got more radical,” this is what the evolution of the GOP has looked like over the past few years.

Chaos at the V.A.: Inside the DOGE Cuts Disrupting the Veterans Agency Clinical trials have been delayed, contracts canceled and support staff fired. With deeper cuts coming, some are warning of potential harms to veterans.

A leaked memo reveals that DOGE's next target is the VA, with plans to fire more than 80,000 agency workers who provide critical services to veterans and their families.

More than 25% of agency staff are veterans themselves.Β 

How is this "efficiency"?
