America is not building enough housing and Americans are facing sky-high housing costs as a result.

Today, the Senate took a historic step to change that.

The ROAD to Housing Act will help communities – urban, suburban, and rural – build more housing and bring down costs.

You know what fascism looks like? Attorney General Letitia James getting criminally indicted on literal trumped-up charges by the criminal who she fought to hold accountable for the actual crimes he committed and is now using the full power of the US govt to seek vengeance.

The β€˜currency swap’ has been finalized. Argentina got their $20 billion and gave us an unknown number of pesos, while he cuts healthcare and human services for Americans. Don’t call it a bailout, they say β€” it’s like saying tariffs aren’t taxes. What happened to America First?

We’re watching an entire political party actively protect the single most infamous sex-trafficking operation of our time.

This isn’t just silenceβ€”it’s complicity at the highest level.

Shapiro: I filed that amicus brief last night to make it very clear that the Pennsylvania National Guard is under my command.

The way the President has chosen to deploy the Guard in other statesβ€”and, in at least one case, deploy the Guard from one state into anotherβ€”is extremely dangerous.

I knew Fox News was theater. I just didn't realize it was a repertory theater that recycles actors for different roles.

You'd think a company that had to pay $787,000,000 for deceiving its viewers would be a little more careful about blatantly continuing the practice.

No one is covering the GOP's scheme to rig congressional maps for 2026 as closely as Democracy Docket. It is providing gavel to gavel coverage of the ongoing hearing over whether the Texas gerrymander will be in place for the midterms.

E-bikes have evolved into e-motorcycles. Law enforcement is lagging behind. β€” Philadelphia Inquirer E-bikes have evolved into e-motorcycles. Law enforcement is lagging behind.

I bike on an actual bicycle, go walking and hiking. I’m glad someone has finally written something about how dangerous these e-bikes are becoming! I’ve jumped out of the way to avoid them. They are along side my car doing 40mph and then they turn and run along sidewalks!
