I want to remind folks of something thatโ€™s still raw for me. After the 2024 loss, most Dems in Congress went quiet. You remember the silence. It was deafening.

Jasmine Crockett did the opposite. She stepped up early, got loud, and was never afraid to take on Trump.

Keyword: โ€œrelevant.โ€ Translation: nothing to see here.

No one should trust the DOJ to decide what counts as relevant. We all know there are millions of unreleased docs.

๐Ÿšจ The DOJ says it has released all of its โ€œrelevantโ€ records on Jeffrey Epstein, but some lawmakers are demanding more.

This time, CNN actually gets it right. No matter what happens in the mid-terms or in 2028, the era that saw the United States as the leader of the free world has ended. We have gone from beacon of hope to pariah, from advocate for democracy to fellow traveler with despots.

This is Trump's America.

Trump Administration Erases the Governmentโ€™s Power to Fight Climate Change

Trump is selling out our kidsโ€™ future so his fossil fuel billionaire friends can get even richer.

The science is clear. Climate change is an existential threat to the planet.

We must transform our energy system away from fossil fuels and into sustainable energies.

Trump: โ€˜There will be Voter I.D. for the Midterm Elections, whether approved by Congress or not!โ€™ "I have searched the depths of Legal Arguments not yet articulated or vetted on this subject, and will be presenting an irrefutable one in the very near future," wrote Trump, who is not a lawyer.

Trump is saying that he will disregard Congress and issue an Excutive order that will violate the Constitution.

Here is my promise: If he does that, we will sue and we will win. Just like we did the last time. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

Wow! This is some top-notch investigative journalism. The report claims the 3 million Epstein files released are only 2% of the total.

Raskin: What makes somebody a good lawyer?

You have to identify with the people who are the victims of injustice โ€” not with their perpetrators.

So I would say to Pam Bondi: If youโ€™re going to stand with the victimizers and not the victims, then youโ€™re not a real lawyer.

This Is How a Child Dies of Measles When your family becomes a data point in an outbreak

By then, the virus โ€œhas multiplied and descended upon her lungs, kidneys, tonsils, and spleen, down to the marrow of her bones.โ€ Elizabeth Bruenig writes about how a child dies of measles:
