Journalist Edward R. Murrow used his platform on CBS to criticize the witch hunts led by Senator Joseph McCarthy in the 1950s.

This is what real journalism should do β€” hold power to account, not capitulate to it.

This was always the plan.

Project 2025 was Donald Trump's blueprint to seize unchecked power within the federal government and restrict Americans' freedoms. And he is implementing it right in front of our eyes.

It says a lot that Trump can find $20 billion to bail out Argentina, but won't help the millions of Americans who are in real need at home.

Thank you to former CFPB Director Rohit Chopra for explaining.

I've read the CR. It makes health insurance cheaper for eligible Americans & restores Medicaid funding. It does NOT provide healthcare to illegal immigrantsβ€”they're already excluded from these programs by law. This simply continues existing coverage.

Republicans don’t need a single democratic vote to fund their regime. Here’s why. Please share widely.

800 detainees are missing after being held in Alligator Alcatraz in July, showing no record of their location in ICE’s database.

Other detainees have been mistakenly deported or sent to detention centers thousands of miles away.

The cruelty is the point.

I know I’m naive but it is pretty wild that the president of the United States just publicly declares he and the military killed some guys on a boat, multiple times, and the entirety of Congress doesn’t immediately hit a giant red IMPEACH button

Acts of political violence aren’t acceptable. Non-political school shootings aren’t acceptable. Sacking the legislature isn’t acceptable. Military occupation of peaceful American cities isn’t acceptable. Abductions conducted in courthouse hallways by masked agents of the state aren’t acceptable.

RFK JR: It's going to have a it's going to it's going to be the biggest infusion of federal dollars into rural health care in American history.

SANDERS: You know why? Because you're cutting $150 billion for rural hospitals. You're putting $50 billion back. That's not an infusion.

Trump has made special concessions for both Apple and Nvidia that will boost their bottom lines.

Trump's latest financial filings show that he owned stock worth more than $600,000 in both companies as recently as last year.

See the problem here?

The numbers are in!

Strong PPI + Soft CPI = Businesses absorbing tariff pain (for now)

But here's the kicker: Companies can't eat these costs forever.

When profit margins hit the breaking point, guess who picks up the tab?

Spoiler alert: It's not the businesses.

Trump ran for office saying he’d lower costs on day one,” Warren told CNBC. β€œCost of groceries are up, cost of housing is up, cost of health care is up. And where is Donald Trump?”

In 2024, we warned of the darkness of a future Trump dictatorship. Jailing leaders of American cities, disappearing dissenters, and using military force to harm Americans. That future is on our doorstep.

But we can stop it. Don't be afraid to exercise your power and tell Trump enough is enough.

My name is Greg Vartan. I'm a Democrat ready to flip New Jersey’s 7th and bring back real leadership to our district.

This race will be the closest in the country.

Can you retweet, follow, and spread the word?

Speaker Pro Tempore: You are to direct your comments to the chair.

Jeffries: You know what's interesting? Every time I come on this floor, I can use sharp language, he can use sharp language, you choose to admonish me. I don't work for you sir. I work for the American people.

Sam Stein on Twitter: β€œIt's wildly unappreciated how insanely rushed this GOP megabill is. They're making major health care policy changes through private negotiations over two weekend days with no hearings, expert analysis, or public insight.”

Late last night, Republicans on the House Budget Committee voted to advance Trump’s Tax Scam that would gut Medicaid and SNAP to give billionaires even more tax cuts.

A man who holds the title of President of the United States, who took an oath to protect and defend the Constitution, who then says he doesn’t know if he’d uphold the Constitution, is unfit to be president and should be removed.
