Sad.

Our silence isn’t empty it’s filled with the truth everyone already sees. Their comments and reactions have already revealed everything, two very different responses in different moments. We’ve read, we’ve seen, and we know you see the truth too.

All they do is lie and make shit up in an attempt to disappear children. Justice Department lawyers just dropped a claim they had made in court while trying to deport dozens of unaccompanied Guatemalan children over a holiday weekend.

Congress is finally looking into a whistleblower claim. Senate Finance Committee Chair Sen. Michael D. Crapo (R-Idaho) asked the Social Security Administration to provide details about the agency mishandled sensitive data. The concerns stem from a whistleblower claim filed last month by

Wow. Chief Justice John G. Roberts Jr. just single-handedly ruled that Congress doesn’t really control the purse strings. This is becoming a massive crisis for checks and balances and the separation of powers.

The Trump administration announced plans to roll back protections that had reserved millions of acres of public land for conservation and recreation.

We wanted to draw attention to an issue affecting Menomonie, Wisconsin. A proposed $1.6 billion data center on 320 acres of farmland (located between 650th and 690th Avenue) has drawn strong opposition. The City Council quickly annexed and rezoned the land to “Restricted Industrial,”

We just saw the videos you shared with us calling out Trump at dinner in DC tonight as “the Hitler of our time.” 💯;)

Trump posted an AI-generated image that looked like a poster for the film Apocalypse Now, but with Chicago’s skyline in flames, helicopters circling overhead, and himself posed as a military commander.

Our country would never tolerate this kind of reckless rhetoric from any other world leader. If such a statement were made abroad, the United States would respond swiftly to show exactly what it means to attempt to declare war on our soil. A foreign leader posting an image like this, depicting an

US appeals court says Trump cannot continue foreign aid cuts A U.S. appeals court on Friday declined to block a lower court ruling that said President Donald Trump's administration could not unilaterally cut billions of dollars of foreign aid, requiring the administration to quickly move to spend funds on projects authorized by Congress.

A win! The federal appeals court chose not to step in, leaving in place a lower court’s directive that the Trump administration must continue making billions in foreign aid accessible.

Chicago roads are looking pretty icy, might be time for some salt. Strange for September, but you can never be too prepared.

What Trump dumped on Congress from the Epstein files. Looks like D.C. really did run out of black Sharpies. For context, this is Document 380, a motion in limine filed by Maxwell’s defense team on October 29, 2021, trying to block evidence tied to “Accuser-3” from being heard at trial.

The Department of Health and Human Services is preparing to award a sole-source, no-bid contract to Harris Telecom LLC, also known as HarrisX, which is part of the Stagwell Group. The firm is led by Mark Penn, a strong ally of Trump, and would be tasked

White and blue text: "Know Your Rights when interacting with federal agents, local law enforcement, or military troops: If you get stopped, ask if you’re free to go. If they say yes, walk or drive away. If you’re questioned, you can say, “I want to remain silent.” In some cases, you may be required to provide your name, address, immigration status, and/or ID. If an official asks to search you or your belongings, you have the right to say no, but do not obstruct access. They may have authority to conduct the search anyway. If they begin searching you or your vehicle, say clearly: “I do not consent to a search.” You do not have to unlock your phone or give government officials your password without a warrant. For additional security, turn off biometric identification such as Face ID. If law enforcement officers arrest you, you have a right to ask why. Otherwise, say you wish to remain silent and ask for a lawyer immediately. Don't sign, say, or agree to anything without a lawyer present. If you believe your rights have been violated, when you can, write down everything you remember, get contact information for witnesses, and take photographs of any injuries." Light blue ACLU logo.

White and blue text: "Know Your Rights when witnessing federal agents, local law enforcement, or military activity in public: You have the right to talk about and publicize truthful information that you obtain lawfully, including about what law enforcement officers are doing and where they are doing it. You have the right to tell people their legal rights. If you are a lawyer, make clear you are not giving legal advice. You have the right to photograph or film anything in plain view, including federal buildings and law enforcement. These officials can’t confiscate or demand to view your photographs or video without a warrant, nor can they delete data under any circumstances. However, they may order you to move a reasonable distance away. If you think a command is unlawful, it’s safest to follow the order, document the interaction, and challenge it later. You can ask for officers’ names and badge numbers, as well as who to call if there are follow-up questions." Light blue ACLU logo. Black background.

No matter what uniform they wear, federal agents and military troops on our streets are bound by the Constitution.

Certainly, Trump doesn’t appear to view this as a flaw in the system but rather as an intentional feature reducing staff at the intelligence office tasked with monitoring foreign election threats leaves the U.S. more exposed to interference and manipulation from abroad.

Well, let’s take a closer look at how politics tends to work surely all of this is just coincidental. In late June 2025, Steve Schwarzman, the billionaire chair of Blackstone Group, donated $2 million to Pine Tree Results PAC, a
