Some exciting news: 404 Media just won a grant via Muckrock to investigate book bans and educational censorship in the U.S. The plan is to file hundreds of public records requests around the country and to report on and archive all the documents for public use:

Republican Senators have confirmed the corrupt incompetent boobs Tr*mp nominated. Republicans in Congress have handed over their Constitutional duty and their power to Tr*mp. Republicans fail to do their jobs and impeach.

Every awful thing Tr*mp's does is bc the GOP in Congress allows it.
HASSAN: What is habeas corpus?

NOEM: Habeas corpus is a constitutional right that the president has to be able to remove people from this country

We all need to understand a key facet of fascism. There is no end, but also there is no plan. Just an endless string of opportunities to exploit and suppress people when they do not stand up for themselves. Fascists are big dogs that look scary, but run scared when faced with a real fight.
What is the end game for these madmen?? World dominance? Hatred and poverty rife everywhere? That doesn't sound like a good world

The man who is responsible for adding $2.4 trillion to the deficit over 10 years, and who is responsible for allocating $75 billion to kidnapping citizens, is taunting U.S. citizens by threatening to shutdown safety net programs.

After 26 hours of fighting on the Senate floor, Republicans voted to rip health care from millions of people and let little babies go hungry. And they cheered.

I'm angry. You should be too. But this fight isn't over.

This is insane. Two teenagers ask Mitch McConnell earnest questions about the BBB’s impacts on climate and he won’t even acknowledge their presence.

He walks past them like a zombie.

McConnell has no business holding any public office. Shameful.

Senate Republicans are calling to cut Medicaid and CHIP by over $1 trillion, growing to an 18% cut by 2034.

This would be at least four times the size of the largest Medicaid cut in history.

In case you missed it, Trump's CFPB has quietly dropped 18 lawsuits against banks, mortgage firms, and subprime lenders accused of offering predatory loans to millions of vulnerable consumers.
