Farmers grow what they grow because of farm policy.

We don’t need all the soy and corn that we grow, but those are the commodities that receive subsidies and markets.

If we want something better, if we want to heal the Earth and grow food, now is the time to do it.

AZ AG Mayes: If I have to, I’ll take Speaker Johnson to court. There's no legitimate reason for him to refuse to swear her in right now. And it's not fair for Mike Johnson to be holding the state of Arizona hostage because he doesn't want to release the Epstein files.

Journalist warned about Hitler, as they warn us now about Trump. “Following the interview, in numerous articles and her book "I Saw Hitler," she warned about the threat Hitler represented to democracy and highlighted Hitler's embrace of racial prejudice”

Nearly 9 months into the second Trump administration, Massachusetts has lost out on a total of $3.7 billion in federal funding thanks to Trump’s clawbacks and the domestic policy mega-bill. That supports a range of programs, from health care and housing to public safety and environmental protection.

For context, Democracy Docket first launched a paid membership 18 months ago and already has more than 50,000 paid members (and nearly 500,000 free subscribers).

Yes, the 100k number is only WaPo's print subscribers, but it is still a shocking decline given the interest in democracy and elections.

Lmao WaPo has fewer than 100K circulation now. It turns out “alienate your liberal subscriber base” is not a good strategy when the Republicans also hate you. www.forbes.com/sites/andyme...

The Washington Post Is Running Out Of Readers Willing To Pay

Once a titan of American journalism, The Washington Post now struggles to reach even 100,000 print subscribers most days.

Nearly every media outlet is announcing they will refuse to sign the Pentagon’s new rule stating they cannot report information if it’s not government “authorized.”

Even Newsmax is refusing to sign.

Four years ago, I filed suit to find out why the Florida Department of Law Enforcement illegally denied my public records requests about their targeting of a then-member of the DNC.

In September, I won a JUDGEMENT against FDLE.

They let their appeal rights expire.

That's all she wrote.

I WON!!!

POLITICO: “.. They referred to Black people as monkeys and ‘the watermelon people’ and mused about putting their political opponents in gas chambers. They talked about raping their enemies .. and lauded Republicans who they believed support slavery.
