Over 700,000 southern Arizonans still don’t have representation in Congress, more than three weeks after we elected @adelitaforcongress.bsky.social.

Democracy means honoring the will of the people. Speaker Johnson must do the right thing and swear her in so she can get to work.

A mom in Houston reported her 15-year-old son with autism missing. She spent 6 days terrified, searching for him. The whole time, Houston police knew exactly where he was since they helped ICE place him in a refugee facility.

This is beyond cruel.

"Miller slipped up because even he knows it is an outrageous thing for Trump to claim absolute, unreviewable power to send active-duty military troops into American cities based only on his delusions."

Stephen Miller's radically bogus idea of "plenary authority"

This is not how the Constitution works.

California voters, are you paying attention?

North Carolina Republicans are redrawing the map to hand Trump another seat. They’re bragging about locking down Congress for him.

If men with guns and masks tried to pull me out of my car, I'd fight back. Courts should reject any claims by the government that this is aggression by the person being detained, resisting arrest, or that they're a flight risk.

Are we in a recession? Yes — if you live in one of these 22 states.

The U.S. economy is very close to falling into a damaging contraction — and many states are already in a recession, according to Mark Zandi, chief economist at Moody’s Analytics.
