SIGN THE PETITION: Stand Against Trump's Budget Proposal to Defund IMLS. Trump is more emboldened than ever to destroy library funding. We need you to take action today!

On May 2, 2025, the Trump Administration released its FY2026 federal budget proposal.

On page 39 he calls for the complete elimination of the only federal agency dedicated solely to supporting America’s libraries and museums.

GOP Rep. Nancy Mace praises Iowa ending trans civil rights, uses anti-trans slur in Clive In Iowa, Rep. Nancy Mace, R-S.C., praised the law removing gender identity protections from the Iowa Civil Rights Act and repeated an anti-trans slur.

The irony that these horrible people spew their hate speech at an event centered on β€œFaith and freedom” as they remove freedoms and erase humans. They are vile and far from β€œChristian”.

PETITION: Support the Right to Read in DOD K-12 schools The parents of these students are fighting for our freedoms abroad, yet those same freedoms are being eroded in their children's schools at home.

Parents of these students fight for our freedoms abroad, yet our freedoms are being eroded in their kids' schools at home.

An erasure of democracy and freedoms. Please sign the petition to protect our freedoms and maintain integrity of education in America.

Google Maps blocks Gulf of America reviews after rename criticism It controversially updated the Gulf's name for US users after President Trump ordered it to be changed.

Ah Google, you bureaucratic, fascist feeding giant. I did another feedback and selected violent or dangerous content adding Gulf of Mexico in the notes. I'll keep trying. You keep blocking reality. www.bbc.com/news/article...

I have a true aversion to the word czar. Then again, I have an aversion to all things associated with the orange devil. 🀬

We are on the front lines. Happy to have some light shed on this very dangerous issue. Dangerous to our democracy and critical thinking. Dangerous to our children.
