DOJ hasn't released some Epstein files related to a woman who made an allegation against Trump The files don't include records from three FBI interviews with a woman who said Jeffrey Epstein abused her and who also made sexual abuse allegations against President Trump, according to an NBC News ...

It’s our job to keep fighting and hold the powerful accountable.

No president, financier, or anyone else should be able to bend the rules to exploit women and girls. We won’t stop until everyone is held accountable.

5 dead on Key Peninsula after reports of man stabbing people in the street The incident occurred near Lake Kathryn, where multiple people called 911 to report a man stabbing people.

I am heartbroken about the tragic stabbings that happened on the Key Peninsula and in Port Angeles. My heart is with the families grieving these unimaginable losses and our communities grappling with these horrible acts of violence. (1/2)

Today, I won't be attending the State of the Union. Instead, I'll be joined by Sharlene Rochard, an incredible advocate & survivor at the @moveon.org People's State of the Union to send a message to this administration: survivors will not be silenced.

DOJ declares full release of Epstein Files, but list of 300 names sparks backlash Attorney General Pam Bondi announced in a letter to Congress that the Justice Department has released what she described as “all” of the Jeffrey Epstein files,

Reminder – Pam Bondi is blatantly violating the Epstein Files Transparency Act and the Oversight Committee’s subpoena by refusing to release all the files. We won’t stop fighting for transparency and justice for all survivors.

A majority of Americans oppose Trump's tariffs and 69% β€” including 52% of Republicans β€” say they've driven up costs.

Now, the Supreme Court says he lacked the authority to impose many of his tariffs under IEEPA.

One of the bright spots for me in this Congress has been the work we’ve been able to do to protect Tribal sovereignty in the House Natural Resources Committee. It’s our duty to make sure we are righting historic wrongs and upholding our treaty and trust responsibilities with Tribal governments.

Despite Trump's criticism, our latest polling shows halftime performer and Grammy winner Bad Bunny is more popular among Americans than the president. #SBLX

Trump’s tariffs dominate Americans’ perceptions of his second term.

NEW: Americans say ICE has gone too far.

A majority (59%), including 60% of independents and a plurality of non-MAGA Republicans, say the agency’s actions over the past year have been overly aggressive.

Americans want lower costs β€” not political revenge.

56% are concerned Trump is focused on consolidating power and seeking retribution against his enemies instead of helping families afford everyday expenses.

Americans say jobs and the economy should be a top priority.

But they don’t think Trump and Republicans in Congress are treating it that way β€” none of their priorities match what Americans want them to be focused on.

Screenshot from a Moneywise that features the text: Finding a mutual way forward
A December survey (11) by Navigator Research echoed many of the above concerns, though it did offer a possible way forward for the coexistence of data centers that will power the future of AI technology, and the communities in which they reside.

The survey found that β€œan approach that protects consumers from both environmental consequences and higher costs associated with them is more appealing than one that solely aims to slow or stop the construction of data centers.”

That approach, the report noted, would include β€œhigh-paying, union jobs and growth to local economies and tax revenue” and assurances β€œthat tech companies pay their fair share instead of passing the costs onto consumers.”

ICYMI: Our December survey found Americans prefer a path forward on data centers that protects communities β€” not one that simply slows or stops construction.

That means prioritizing environmental safeguards, lower costs for consumers, and high-paying union jobs. πŸ‘‡
