For millions of Americans, today will bring the chance to be heard.
If there's an election where you live, then you get to send a message on the policies and leadership you believe in - and begin changing the trajectory of this country.
Here it is, the Constitutional crisis people feared, Trump openly and flagrantly defying a court order. And it's over... denying Americans food. We are literally facing a Constitutional breakdown over SNAP funds.
This administration is making mistake after mistake. They can be beaten.

NYT confirms our reporting from days ago - which the WH said was fake news - that Trump and Hegseth are pulling a stunt to fire artillery rounds over I-5 between SD and LA onto Camp Pendleton as a stunt, one of the busiest highways in America. www.nytimes.com/2025/10/18/u...

But instead of helping American families facing double costs, Trump plans to DOUBLE his bailout for Argentina.
Whatever happened to โAmerica Firstโ?
NEW: The government does not track how often immigration agents grab citizens. So ProPublica did.
We found more than 170 such incidents since the start of the second Trump administration. Our tally โ almost certainly incomplete โ includes nearly 20 children, two of whom have cancer.
