Opinion | It’s Time to Protect America From America’s President Trump’s authoritarian actions are vandalizing the American project.

Nicholas Kristof nails it: "this is vandalism of the American project. That is why this moment is a test of our ability to step up and protect our national greatness from our national leader."

We the people need to stand up and protect our democracy.

Bring home Kilmar Abrego Garcia, along with everyone else whose due process rights have been violated. It's not hard.

Indiana legislature goes all in on its big government era • Indiana Capital Chronicle Looking at the bills that will be picked back up this week, it’s hard not to conclude the legislature is in its “big government" era.

The Indiana legislature is simultaneously attempting to reduce local revenue streams and local control.

Hoosiers deserve better.

The Republican House Budget Resolution's Potential $880 Billion in Medicaid Cuts by Congressional District The Republican House budget resolution would cost congressional districts an average of $2 billion each and could eliminate coverage for 15.9 million people.

The Republicans’ proposed cuts to Medicaid are potentially catastrophic. In Indiana’s 2nd Congressional District 160,764 people (64%) receive Medicaid/CHIP. The loss of $2.01B to the district over the course of 9 years means that 54,000 people will lose health care, food aid, and nursing home care.

The Trump/Vance attempt to humiliate and bully Zelenskyy in the Oval Office was entirely shameful.

I stand with Ukraine. 🇺🇦

Those who voted for Donald Trump didn't know that they would lose their health care.

He promised time and time again he wouldn't touch Medicaid — now he's blessed the House Republicans' plan to take it all away.

He lies over and over again. It's time we wake up.

Trump and Vance showed a level of crassness and vulgarity never seen before in the White House with a foreign leader and guest. They were the worst kind of ignorant disgusting bully. They’ve turned our nation into a global embarrassment. And a global threat.

“We want the bureaucrats to be traumatically affected…we want them to not want to go to work because they are increasingly viewed as the villains.”

“We want to put them in trauma.”
