Indiana Professor Removed From Class Over White Supremacy Lesson

Indiana University, which has now been subordinated to the direct control of the Indiana GOP, announces that criticism of the MAGA movement and doctrines of the GOP is forbidden. An instructor is dismissed for speaking critical words about the MAGA movement.

merrick garland, worst us attorney general in history in a universe where john ashcroft and alberto gonzales exist is quite an achievement

This was so patently ridiculous -- it took more than two years of Watergate being the No. 1 most investigated and written-about story in America until the "smoking gun" tape came out in August 1974. There are certainly Trump-Epstein bombshells that haven't been leaked yet

California Charter Schools Heading for 2026 By Thomas Ultican 11/11/2025 There was another major effort in Sacramento to reform charter school laws in order to head off a repeat of the A3 disaster. In May 2019, the San Diego District Attorne…

AOC: "It is unconscionable that what we are debating right now is legislation that will give 8 senators over $1 million a piece & we're robbing people of their food assistance & healthcare to pay for it. How can we vote to enrich ourselves by stealing from the American people?"

Trump administration moves again to dismantle top US consumer watchdog Government argues funding mechanism behind Consumer Financial Protection Bureau is unlawful

Trump’s all-in for billionaires with special deals and tax cuts — but wants to shut down the agency that protects Americans from grifters and rip-offs.

The CFPB’s returned $21B to cheated Americans.

No wonder Trump wants it gone. He’s with the cheaters.

So many things get me about the roll over, show belly capitulation from the Senate. And one of them is that the promise of a future vote in the Senate isn't even the promise (ha!) of future *passage* of an ACA bill because House would have to deliver same promise.

Tell Congress: Cancel GOP healthcare cuts and end Trump’s shutdown Contact Congress today!

This not over! Tell Congress to hold the line!

Trump’s gold bling in the WH reminded me of a clip I posted 5 years ago of Charlie Sheen in the UK telling a story of the time Trump gave him a wedding gift.

Democratic leaders have failed us again. It's time to get new leaders. After yet another capitulation by Chuck Schumer and Senate Democrats, it's clear we need new leadership capable of mounting a serious opposition to Trump's authoritarian regime. We're launching our la...

For the first time all year, Democrats were riding high and the regime was on the ropes.

If Senate leadership’s goal was to demobilize and depress rank-and-file Democrats, they could not have played their cards better.

This is why we’ve launched the largest primary program that we’ve ever run.

Too many treat loss of public education as unfortunate collateral damage. But there is no greater democratic institution than the one responsible for renewing faith in and principles of democracy for each generation.

Chuck Schumer Needs to Go The Democratic Senate leader has lost the thread. Everyone is suffering because of his lack of judgment.

Throw. The. Bum. Out.

This, from Alex Shephard @alexshephard.bsky.social :

Then resign. Let’s just get someone who will.

Even if not pushing for this debacle, Minority Leader Chuck Schumer’s inability to hold his caucus is proof positive he is the wrong leader for this time.

"Hey you two! Stop that fighting or I'll turn this car around right now!" "But he's got a knife!"

While Trump murders people on boats for supposedly trafficking drugs, Jonathan Braun, a convicted drug trafficker serving a 10 year sentence he pardoned in 2021, will be sentenced in court today after he sexually assaulted a woman after Trump freed him from prison.

Furious Liberals Call for Schumer to Step Aside, Senate Dems Mostly Quiet After their shutdown surrender, liberal lawmakers are begging their base to unite behind them anyway – as Trumpland celebrates that their opposition is a bunch of 'p*ssies.'

“If Schumer really wanted to use his considerable influence and leverage to stop this, he could have done that,” a senior Democratic Senate aide tells Zeteo. “He didn’t.”

Bringing a Survey to a Gun Fight, Part I “Pollingism” Has Failed Democrats and Voters. Tuesday Showed the Power of Magnetism.

When CA launched Prop 50, it was polling at 38%. And so, we did it anyway. Winning campaigns requires that your GOALS define your actions, recognizing opinion - including who agrees to vote - is malleable. In other words, be a thermostat, not a thermometer.

That video above is great. But delaying the bill until Friday or Saturday would give voters time to pressure cavers like Rosen, King and Cortez Masto.

Really fighting at this point means being willing to piss off your colleagues.

You are a BUFFOON @kaine.senate.gov.
