This Portland police officer stood up for his community against ICE agents trying to drive into a crowd of protesters.

“You WILL be arrested.”

AFT members join Democrats in push to protect healthcare On Oct. 1, the White House and congressional majority shut down the federal government. They refused to support Democrats in extending Affordable Care Act subsidies to millions of Americans before the...

Ohio State University Medical Center RN Catharyne Henderson is right. The government shut down because Trump & Congressional Republicans put politics before protecting healthcare & lowering costs. Working families deserve stability, dignity, and affordable healthcare. www.aft.org/news/aft-mem...

We’ve got some influential MAGA here in PA who like to screw around with all things election (Rep Scott Perry, Heather Honey…both in counties next to mine). I’ve fed tips to national and local reporters before…and kudos for working for a terrific ethical nonprofit that’s dogeared in my Rolodex

Trump's invasion This weekend marked a major escalation of his campaign of terror.

"Simply put, one state cannot invade another. This is something so central to American democracy that you don’t even need some sort of legal explanation as to the underpinnings."

What Is Project 2025 And Why Is It So Dangerous? Project 2025 is an authoritarian plot to replace tens of thousands of federal workers with GOP loyalists, dismantle federal agencies, and turn the federal government into a tool of the far-right.

I wrote one of the first explainers on Project 2025 all the way back in November 2023.

It’s unsettling how much of this turned out to come true.

The government does not have the power to declare “free speech zones.” And the violent arrest of the rabbi should set off some alarm bells.

Schools were not forcing kids to have transgender surgery.

Babies were not being aborted after they were born.

Migrants were not crossing the border to vote for Kamala Harris.

Donald Trump is a pathological liar and, if you believed this shit, you are a pathological dumbass.

Graphic of Donald Trump that says: #UNFIT THE PSYCHOLOGY OF DONALD TRUMP

I'm tired of this insanity, so l'm asking all Americans:

When is enough going to be enough?

Trump is unwell. He is delusional and vengeful. He doesn't care about this country or its citizens as evidenced by his fascist policies.

He's tanking the economy and spitting on the constitution.

Now That Fascism is Here... Fascism isn’t coming to America; it’s here.

We cannot let the myth of American exceptionalism numb us into imagining we are above devolving into inhumanity.

We have every ingredient in place to become something historically monstrous.

It will happen here unless we refuse to allow it.

The Vice President of the United States used his social media page to tell Joy Reid, a private citizen with no connection to the government, that she should express "gratitude" for how this country has treated her.

Black women remain the most consistent targets in all of this.
