The President is raising rates by thousands of dollars PER FAMILY for northern Michiganders. 

He’s rejecting disaster aid out of spite, just because he feels like it. His decision will cost impacted residents tens of millions of dollars and threatens our rural utility providers’ future.

Northwestern settles with Trump administration in $75M deal to regain federal funding The university will pay $75 million over three years to end the Trump administration's investigations into antisemitism on its campus and to have millions of dollars in federal funding restored.

Northwestern’s Trump deal harms students and faculty by gutting research, abandoning Gaza justice, and giving $75 million to the Trump regime. Throwing your campus under the bus isn’t leadership — it’s cowardice. Hold NU accountable and demand they stand with their community over Trump.

Scoop: Trump and Johnson to hold tele-rally for GOP in tight Tennessee House race Should Republicans lose — or win narrowly — it would further expectations that the party is heading toward a perilous midterm.

It’s clear that Republicans are very worried about the upcoming special election in a Tennessee district that Trump won by double digits.

Some in the Democratic Party want to you think we must choose between social justice and economic populism.

Rubbish.

The only path forward is embracing both.

Trump's crypto memecoin.
Multi-million dinners with CEOs.
Firing independent officials in charge of rooting out corruption.
Giant tax cuts to Trump's billionaire friends.

Donald Trump is the most corrupt president in our nation's history.
