FBI seizing ballots and election records from a Georgia election office isn’t normal law enforcement. Nor is it normal for the Director of National Intelligence to be involved.

If the DOJ can be used to relitigate a settled election, it can be weaponized in every future one. This is not democracy.

Senate fails to advance spending bills as Democrats push for DHS reforms Senators blocked a package of six spending bills that includes funding for the Department of Homeland Security as Democrats continue to push for reforms to immigration enforcement.

Today’s Senate vote is an important first step toward unifying Democrats against the escalating violence carried out by ICE and Border Patrol in our communities. Republicans don’t have the votes to jam through this toxic DHS bill.

A crowd of people wearing hats, gloves and heavy coats stand I. The evening light holding candles in front of a large office building.

Tonight in DC, hundreds of people came together to remember and mourn Alex Pretti.

One of Pretti’s fellow VA nurses from Minnesota spoke at the vigil and shared a lesson from nursing we all need right now (1/2)

Micayla Pretti, younger sister of Alex Pretti, speaks out.

"Alex was kind, generous, and had a way of lighting up every room he walked into. He was incredibly intelligent and deeply passionate, and he made people feel safe. But most importantly, he was my brother."

Our calls and emails are critical but it's also very important that we turn up the pressure on senators in public in their home states before the vote on DHS funding. We encourage you to plan creative, nonviolent, and lawful actions that honor the lives taken and highlight our demand to rein in ICE.

This saying is deeply true.
These destroyers are trying to start a WW. Led by a bully who has never served!

NEW: The Atlantic reports Greg Bovino has been REMOVED from his role as Border Patrol “Commander at Large” and will return to his former job in El Centro, California, where he is expected to retire soon.

DHS Secretary Kristi Noem and “adviser” Corey Lewandowski are at risk of losing their jobs.

In response to the regime’s political violence, over 100,000 people have signed up for tonight’s mass call on exercising our constitutional right to document and record ICE and other federal agents. We hope you can join us: www.mobilize.us/nokings/even...

Stand up tall! You’re AMERICANS!
Support our fellow citizens.
Please pass it on!

Lisa Cook, Federal Reserve Board of Governors: "President Trump purported to fire me 'for cause' when no cause exists under the law, and he has no authority to do so. I will not resign. I will continue to carry out my duties to help the American economy as I have been doing since 2022."

The law that Trump signed on July 4, ending tax incentives for wind and solar projects, is expected to drive up electricity bills across the US. www.npr.org/2025/07/...

🙌💙🙌

For the first time in 111 years, a President is planning to fire a sitting Fed governor—and of course, it’s the first Black woman, Lisa Cook.

Trump’s message is clear: when Black women rise, he’ll do anything to push us down.

Newsflash: we’re not going anywhere.

BREAKING: Fed Governor Lisa Cook pushes back with a strong statement after Trump claimed to fire her:

“President Trump purported to fire me ‘for cause’ when no cause exists under the law, and he has no authority to do so. I will not resign and will continue my work to support the U.S. economy”

Our gerrymandered congressional maps are creating all kinds of problems. Redistricting assassin Dave Daley has a solution. Watch him explain on an all new LP Podcast, out NOW: https://youtu.be/k-bL8JHdoJQ

Rep. Veronica Escobar: "We need more people marching in the streets."

J.B. Pritzker: "Mr. President, do not come to Chicago. You are neither wanted here nor needed here."

This is how you stand up to bullies and aspiring tyrants.

Last week Trump said he likes the idea of starting a war so he can declare “no more elections” and stay in office forever.

Today he just said “a lot of people” want “a dictator.”

See where this is going?

Reporter: Higher prices. The overall inflation rate as of July at 2.7%. That's well above what the Fed was targeting. When you look at just furniture prices for living room, dining room, and kitchen, almost 8%. This is before these furniture tariffs even kick in

Constituent: You need to take your head out of Trump’s ass.

Free DC is the renewed campaign to protect DC Home Rule and win lasting dignity for the people of the District of Columbia.

They are also in the middle of the most important fight of our generation, and need our support.

Free DC response to Trump’s August 25 executive orders — Free DC Trump is laying the groundwork to quell all public dissent to his agenda. If he is successful, it would spell the end of American democracy. We refuse to allow that to happen.

In response to the Trump regime’s executive orders that further enable their hostile takeover of DC, Free DC states, “Trump is laying the groundwork to quell all public dissent to his agenda. If he is successful, it would spell the end of American democracy. We refuse to allow that to happen…” 1/9

Constituent: You talked about abuses in the medicare and medicaid system and I found interesting that the president pardoned someone that defrauded the medicaid system for $1.3 billion
