Museum reverses course, and it’s the β€˜Philadelphia Museum of Art’ once again The name change announced in October has been changed back, but some elements of the rebrand will remain.

Now maybe the city and everyone involved can rethink putting the Rocky statue at the top of the PMA steps.

Philly should not be elevating the statue of white man who supports an administration that tore down exhibits about the history of slavery in this city.

DENVER (AP) β€” Donald Trump lost his bid for reelection in 2020. But for more than five years, he’s been trying to convince Americans the opposite is true by falsely saying the election was marred by widespread fraud.

Now that he’s president again, Trump is pushing the federal government to back up those bogus claims.

New stories generally lead with the newest information first but starting with this vital fact check is absolutely on point for this story. Credit to @apnews.com for this essential clarity.

Lies, violence and the American state Trump abhors democracy because it allows ordinary Americans to reject his lies. Even worse for Trump, it allows us to reject him.

Here’s the truth:

βœ…Trump lost the 2020 election.
βœ…RenΓ©e Good was shot in the face while turning her car to leave.
βœ…Alex Pretti was beaten by six ICE officers, then fatally shot.
βœ…The GOP is preparing to steal the midterms.

The administration is denying it all. But we can't.

Dems should introduce legislation now defunding ICE and CBP operations in Minnesota, so they have to leave the state. One sentence bill. Demand an immediate vote. Maybe refuse to vote for cloture on any funding bills (or other bills) until a vote. Make the GOP Congress break w/ Trump or own it all.

Trump Cabinet BLASTED During SHOCKING Hearing...CONSTITUTIONAL VIOLATION?
YouTube video by Katie Phang Trump Cabinet BLASTED During SHOCKING Hearing...CONSTITUTIONAL VIOLATION?

A Reagan-appointed judge declares there's an β€œunconstitutional conspiracy” be/Convicted Felon Donald Trump & Cabinet members to β€œdeprive people of their rights."

I've got the scathing ruling, incl. that federal agents are masked to "terrorize Americans into quiescence.”

In a time of crisis for U.S democracy, CBS News under new right-wing management just committed one of the worst acts of journalism in American history

What's so terrible about its unverified, unlikely Trump propaganda over the the MLPS killing by ICE

Congress can stop ICE. Congress can block the use of force in Greenland. In other words, in this crisis, Congress can act to support civil liberties at home and free nations abroad. To fail to act would be to be complicit in a dreadful outcome.

No. We don’t need to β€œmodify ICE training.” We need to close DHS. Dismantle it. It’s an outdated expensive bureaucracy that’s been usurped by violent white supremacists. Shut it down.
