Reporter: For some Americans, it's the most dangerous time of the year—hurricane season. As the Trump administration has cut hundreds of FEMA workers, there are questions about whether the federal government is ready for the next large-scale disaster.

B: That increase is less than $1m for an institute with a $7b budget. That's a .01% increase. It wouldn't even cover one additional grant

Climate change is at our doorstep — and Maine people are bearing the brunt of it.

Today, on Earth Day, let us remind ourselves of the critical role we all play in protecting the beautiful state we call home.

WHAT THE HELL is going on at the USPS?

Yesterday, I received an alarming message about a company that delivers mail for USPS to several island communities in Maine.

Apparently, USPS has been stiffing this company for years—to the tune of $388K—and hasn’t paid for a SINGLE delivery in 2026.

Sen. @vanhollen.senate.gov to Howard Lutnick: You totally misled the American people about certain aspects of your relationship with Jeffrey Epstein.

Your voice matters in every election. Take a moment today to confirm your voter registration and make sure your information is up to date ahead of key deadlines.

They can go bitch to SCOTUS.

The right gambled, tried to rig the election, lost, and now it’s excuses and tears.

Thanks for everything, Virginia. 🙏🏽

CDC won’t publish report showing covid shots cut likelihood of hospital visits The report, which had cleared the agency’s scientific-review process, had been delayed. It now won’t be published at all, people familiar with the decision told The Post.

Why is this administration so afraid of publishing the efficacy report? You know if it was bad, it would be plastered all over the place. www.washingtonpost.com/health/2026/...

Thank you Great Falls, SC!

Democratic candidate Wytricia Mack has won the Great Falls Town Council special election by a large margin.

We have to stay focused on what is in front of us.

We must win the midterms. But we must also have a vision for when we are in power to address childcare, housing, and health care and make life more affordable.

Texas gerrymandered without voters' approval.

Virginia gerrymandered with voters' approval.

They are not the same.

Donald Trump and Republicans have tried to rig the 2026 midterms. Today in Virginia, voters sent them a clear message: The power is with the people.

Here's Tom Steyer sucking up to famous misogynist racist antisemite Hasan Piker.

A cartogram showing the partisan intent behind congressional redistricting in every state for the 2026 elections, with each state’s size corresponding to how many districts it has. States retain their general shapes and locations relative to each other, but they are spaced out to accommodate the change in sizes. The graphic illustrates how Republicans gerrymandered states with 32% of districts in red and Democrats gerrymandered states with 27% of districts in blue. A court, commission, or divided legislature drew a relatively neutral map in yellow states with 29% of districts, and gray states with 1% of districts only have one district each.

The GOP drew 3 times more congressional seats than Dems did for 2024—but that disparity would be far smaller for 2026 with new Dem maps in CA & VA.

This cartogram shows the partisan intent behind each state’s map, though it doesn't measure the effect of more extreme new GOP maps in MO, NC, OH, & TX

Decision Desk HQ projects the VA Congressional Redistricting Referendum will Pass.

While No currently has the lead, based on the location and size of the remaining vote, Yes will take the lead as soon as the remaining counties report.
