The amount of rationalizing you have to do to justify this to yourself, your family, your fellow citizens must be astounding.

I have no sympathy for anyone involved in this. You moved past too many off-ramps for this kind of behavior.

Every book published in the United States is sent to the Library of Congress. Also, if you are under 16 you cannot use the reading room or order books.

100 days into this presidency, Americans are paying the price - higher prices, crashing retirement accounts, and broken promises.

But the American people are turning, thanks to your voices. Keep it up.

It's up to us to demand something better.

AG Nessel joins coalition supporting law firms targeted for retribution by Trump Administration President Trump has issued executive orders retaliating against law firms whose advocacy, clients, and personnel he dislikes.

A functioning democracy depends on a judicial system that operates free from executive interference and without fear of retaliation by the federal government.

Musk’s SpaceX is frontrunner to build Trump’s β€˜Golden Dome’ missile shield SpaceX-led group is pitching the Pentagon on a β€˜subscription model’ for missile defense

Musk spent at least $250 million to elect Trump. He's awarded himself multibillion dollar contracts with the FAA, NASA, Dept. of Commerce and more. Now he's lined up for a massive contract on a wasteful Trump vanity project. Corruption, waste and abuse. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

The CFPB Has Been Gutted The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau terminated the positions of 1,406 employees at the congressionally mandated agency.

This is getting fewer headlines than it should. After coming to power promising to help working people, the president is revealing his real priorities by actively making it easier for banks to rip people off.

Posting this censorship video on my activism @resistrebelrevolt.net got me reported by trolls as spam. 😡

It was shared 700x, with 150 comments showing appreciation to the constitutional lawyer who gave expert testimony on how conservatives were gaslighting us on free speech.

Why former β€˜MAGA junkie’ regrets voting for Trump CNN’s Randi Kaye speaks with West Virginia voters, some of whom are former supporters of President Donald Trump, who now regret their vote after losing their jobs due to DOGE cuts in the federal government.

Trump is letting Elon swing a chainsaw through the government without any thought to how many peopleβ€”or which peopleβ€”it's hurting. Trump doesn't care about working people, even the ones who voted for him. He only cares about people like himself: billionaires.

Aaron Rupar (@atrupar.com) DURBIN: Are you familiar with Stew Peters? PATEL: I'm sorry, what? DURBIN: Are you familiar with Stew Peters? PATEL: Not off the top of my head DURBIN: You may 8 separate appearances on his podcast.…

Stew Peters is an avowed neo-Nazi. He's so extreme even Tucker Carlson won't have him as a guest. Kash Patel has been on Stew's podcast 8 times β€” and just tried to lie to the Senate about it. Patel should not be confirmed to any post, and especially not to lead the FBI.

Criminal records of Jan. 6 rioters pardoned by Trump include rape, domestic violence Dozens of Jan. 6 defendants who received pardons from President Trump had past criminal convictions for charges including rape, manslaughter, domestic violence and drug trafficking.

The violent insurrectionists Trump pardoned included rapists, domestic abusers, and people who sexually abused children. That's on top of assaulting police officers and wreaking havoc in our nation's capitol. Disgusting.
