Question for today: how bad does the Trump administration’s repressive and unconstitutional actions have to get before Republicans in Congress remember who elected them and the oath they took to the Constitution and stand up for America?

In defunding "Democrat Programs" like those protecting our health, education, air, water, and a sustainable environment, is Trump advertising for Democrats?

As the Trump administration struggles mightily to cover up the science of climate change, I'm wondering what they're going to do to cover up the weather that is its result.

Why would Trump want to control the DC police? Is he already planning on refusing to step down after electoral defeat?

So help me understand: to calm down his base who are outraged about the Epstein coverup, DJT wants to cut a deal with Epstein’s convicted and jailed co-conspirator. How does this work?

The "pro life" party is denying food to poor kids in the US and supporting Israel's starvation of kids in Gaza.

Leader Schumer Statement On U.S. Strikes On Iran

New York, N.Y. - Today, Senate Democratic Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) released the following statement after President Trump announced that the United States struck targets in Iran:

"President Trump must provide the American people and Congress clear answers on the actions taken tonight and their implications for the safety of Americans. No president should be allowed to unilaterally march this nation into something as consequential as war with erratic threats and no strategy. Confronting Iran's ruthless campaign of terror, nuclear ambitions, and regional aggression demands strength, resolve, and strategic clarity. The danger of wider, longer, and more devastating war has now dramatically increased.

"We must enforce the War Powers Act and I'm urging Leader Thune to put it on the Senate floor immediately. I am voting for it and implore all Senators on both sides of the aisle to vote for it."

Senate Minority Leader Schumer is urging all senators to support Sen. Kaine’s war powers resolution, which would prohibit Trump from dragging us further into war. We need diplomacy with Iran, not another forever-war. Make sure your senators hear from you ASAP: act.indivisible.org/sign/no-iran...

In our electoral system, running 3rd parties leads to the election of the worst possible candidate. Instant Runoff voting seems a more effective means to show the victors who they owe for their win.

Hannah Dugan Legal Defense Fund Judge Hannah Dugan deserves a full and aggressive defense. Your support will help ensure she receives it.

Judge Hannah Dugan needs help to fight the Trump regime's effort to punish her for not letting ICE grab someone out of her courtroom without a judicial warrant. We need people outside of Milwaukee County to pitch in. Please give a few bucks. For judicial independence www.hannahdugandefensefund.org

The White House is looking to persuade women to have more kids. For starters, I suggest high quality, affordable childcare, healthcare, and housing. To sweeten the deal, how about investing in public education?
