This is a GREAT idea. There will be a wave of people dumping their subs to HBO, CNN and Paramount+. How about we make it a two-part boycott? Dump the Ellison profit machines and subscribe/donate to PBS Passport!!! The future of US journalism is non-profit. Let’s start now!!

Rep Jason Crow (D-CO): β€œI went to war three times for this country and learned that when elites in Washington bang the war drums, working class folks pay the price. The tough talk of a five-time draft dodger falls flat for Americans tired of military adventurism”

The morally bankrupt Trump administration has partnered with another morally bankrupt authoritarian to declare an unprovoked war on Iran, already killing scores of civilians.

We need an immediate vote from Congress on a War Powers Resolution. Then articles of impeachment.

i hate war. i cry tears for the innocent dead. there's no need for any of what's happening. there's no proper consequences nor accountability. the citizens of neither the aggressors nor the victim states want this. the false narratives of "strong men" and preemptive strikes for peace are so hollow.

My sympathy ends with the slander of Tkachuk via AI video. But there can be no sympathy for the natural consequences of the team's misogynistic betrayal of fellow Olympians in order to suck up to the MAGA clowns. Shame should follow shameful behavior.

Here are six steps experts sugges...

Few patients appeal a health insurance denial, but a little-known process that requires insurers and plans to seek an independent opinion can force insurers to pay for what can be lifesaving treatment.

Here’s what experts say you need to know.

The U.S. is now at war with Iran, that means American lives are on the line.

My opponent, Brian Mast, chairs the U.S. House Foreign Affairs Committee. That’s not symbolic, that role shapes foreign policy and oversight.

Floridians made it clear, No New Wars!

Clearly he does not care what we think

Why are we constantly playing catch-up with this demented megalomaniac's crimes and regime?? What good are constitutional guardrails if they are only implemented AFTER he's driven the car off the cliff?? Soundbites and strongly worded letters aren't cutting it folks!!

It Can Now Be Plainly Said: Trump Is Planning a November Coup d’État During the campaign, it was kind of hard to picture the specifics of how Trump might pull such a thing off. Alas, it’s getting less hypothetical by the week.

Though his tanking approval ratings warm my heart, let's not let our guard down or count any chickens just yet...

Private Prison Falsified Records in Detainee’s Death in ICE Custody GEO Group prison staff falsified records on the morning a detainee died in ICE custody at the Moshannon Valley detention center in Pennsylvania.

The corporaate prison industry is bad enough, but paired with ICE?? 😱. And, worse, it's nothing new...
