Trump is BREAKING Social Security.

DOGE forced out THOUSANDS of the most experienced Social Security workers.

Every month, it gets more difficult for Americans to get the benefits they've earned — and it will only get worse as backlogs pile up.

How Social Security has gotten worse under Trump Customer service deteriorated by key measures as the agency enacted sweeping cuts in Trump’s second term, internal data and interviews show.

Speaking of Social Security… How has President Trump threatened Social Security? Let us count the ways.

Reminder: Trump and Congressional Republicans were responsible for billions in cuts to food assistance, Medicaid, and more programs that help working people to pay for tax cuts that benefit their billionaire donors. #SOTU2026

Grateful that I had a chance to see and hear from the Reverend Jesse Jackson twice - once when he was the keynote speaker for Central Michigan University’s Martin Luther King Jr. Week in 2007, and again in 2023 at @netrootsnation.bsky.social.

Samuel Alito Is a Great Man, According to a Former Alito Clerk Arguing Cases at the Supreme Court Ben Aguiñaga, Louisiana’s solicitor general, has appeared before the justices three times this term. In an op-ed, he describes his old boss as “kind, humble, thoughtful and selfless.”

Sorry but it should be illegal to kiss up to your old boss this much in public

Don't miss #NN26 in June! (and check out #NN25 clips too).

"My mind can receive it, my heart can believe it, I know I can achieve it."

Reverend Jesse Jackson was the embodiment of relentless service. On behalf of the entire Netroots community, thank you for your fire, your faith, & your tireless work for the people.

Rest in Power, Reverend. #JesseJackson

A meme is a small person standing at a fork in the road. One points to a Sunny castle and reads “our digital strategy training” and the other leads to a spooky castle under a dark sky and is labeled “just winging it”.

Live: Scores of Minnesota businesses close in protest of ICE enforcement Restaurants, museums, schools and nonprofits closed their doors as part of an “ICE Out” demonstration. Despite the frigid weather, a crowd of protesters gathered in downtown Minneapolis.

Minneapolis workers are the best among us. Facing freezing temps to peacefully stand for truth, freedom, and calling for ICE to leave Minnesota is true solidarity in action.

Today, Minneapolis sent a clear message: ICE is not welcome here, and we will protect our community!
