Trump is ending the Department of Education. This is awful for public schools! I just signed up for this event with Red Wine and Blue and Sharon McMahon (aka SharonSaysSoโ™ฅ๏ธ) to learn what this really means and what we can do about it. Join me! social.redwine.blue/s/ZIxSXc3q

This is how you do it. Other news agencies like Axios and CBS, stop rolling over! Grow a spine, stand up straight and fight!

โ€œMore than a quarter of the contracts listed by DOGE were actually already paid, the Journal found, saving no money. For instance, DOGE listed $168,000 in savings for terminating a contract with HHS for an Anthony Fauci museum exhibit. It had already been fully paid.โ€

Beyond parody.

When FAA employees are telling us itโ€™s not safe to fly, we should probably listen.

The silence of most Republican members of Congress on the Trump tariffs tells you two things:

1. They know it is a terrible idea.

2. They are so afraid of Trump that they wonโ€™t say anything even though they know how much it is going to hurt their constituents and the country.

Local governments across U.S. signal they won't aid Trump migrant crackdown Local government officials around the U.S. signal they won't assist โ€” and in some cases they'll actively oppose โ€” the Trump administration's efforts to conduct a massive deportation of migrants.

Trump has deployed active military to help round up migrants and put them into detention camps.

The military forced us out of our homes at gunpoint in 1942 because we were considered possibly disloyal Americans. They sent us to internment camps for four years.

History is repeating. Pay attention.

Raise your hand if you voted to end cancer research

Raise your hand if you voted to end Alzheimer's research

Raise your hand if you voted to withhold information on possible pandemics, epidemics, public health threats, food poisoning from the American people

Because Trumpยณโด has just done that

Oligarchy (noun): A government of and by a few at the top, who exercise power for their own benefit. Their power and wealth increase as they make laws that favor themselves, manipulate financial markets, and create monopolies that put more wealth into their pockets.
