Donna Brazile

We’re suing the Trump-Vance administration for threatening to conduct mass firings of federal employees if the government shuts down tonight.

Using people’s livelihoods as a bargaining chip is both cruel and illegal. That’s why we’ve joined forces with unions to protect these vital jobs.

Tweet From Obama mentioning my firing from the Washington post. Wirh a photo of me

The last political column I was allowed to write in the @washingtonpost.com was a criticism of Obama.

His people took issue with my piece, but we were respectful.

Now he is tweeting in support of me.

This is how free political speech and respect for debate *actually works*.

Or used to work.

Text reads, "Fun Fact: Crime in DC is down 7% in the first half of 2025 compared to the same period last year, continuing a downward trend since 2023. Violent crime specifically is down even more — by 25%, according to data from MPD." Source: WJLA. (2025, July 2).

facts are so neat ✌️

Be especially cautious on federal land. Rules around open containers and marijuana possession are being enforced more harshly. Many public spaces in DC neighborhoods are technically federal land, including Malcolm X Park, Anacostia Park, Rock Creek Park, Logan Circle, and others.

Watch your step: Many community spaces in our neighborhoods are federal land. Laws are different on these properties, and infractions are being enforced more harshly.

“Get in good trouble, necessary trouble, and help redeem the soul of America.” — Rep. John Lewis

Senators betrayed students, educators, and working families today.

Passing this unconscionable budget is both a political failure and a moral one. This bill will devastate our schools and communities—all to finance massive tax breaks for the ultra-wealthy.

Shame.

Our schools cannot afford a $6.8 billion funding cut. Students will suffer.

David Huerta, President of California's largest union, was assaulted and detained Friday by ICE. Now the @aflcio.org, the biggest confederation of unions in America made up of nearly 15 million active and retired workers, is calling on members to protest on his behalf.

Judge blocks Trump's executive order to dismantle Education Department A federal judge on Thursday blocked President Donald Trump’s executive order to shut down the Education Department and ordered the agency to reinstate employees who were fired in mass layoffs.

Thank goodness. Trump's executive overreach, firing of thousands of education workers, and illegal dismantling of this essential department have been blocked by the courts.
