And there it is..
The Trump regime doesn’t like the Southern Poverty Law Center labeling hate groups as hate groups, so it’s weaponizing the Justice Department to try to destroy the SPLC. This is DOJ taking the side of the Klan.
Tell Congress: Block Trump’s illegal scheme to gut the US Forest Service. Do it now: actionnetwork.org/letters/tell...
BREAKING: A federal appeals court has upheld a Texas law requiring the Ten Commandments to be displayed in every public school classroom.
Students' right to be free from religious indoctrination is protected by the Constitution. We won't stop fighting.
Such an insightful comment. We all learned something today … or maybe relearned, but you knew it and got acknowledged in the Raw Story article! Kudos!!
George Washington mandated vaccines in the Continental Army which provided them a key advantage over the Royal Army. Hegseth knows that, right? It's very important to me that he knows that.
Then what is the point of him being AG? Oh, right...protecting Trump. Never mind.
The most fundamental disconnect between MAGA and everyone else is that we believe everything Trump does is about promoting, enriching and empowering himself because he’s a greedy malignant narcissist, and they believe he actually cares about other people and is primarily motivated by that.
Beginning in March, ads targeting Black voters compared Virginia’s redistricting referendum to Jim Crow.
The mailers were sent by a little-known group that received $9 million in donations from Peter Thiel, the PayPal and Palantir co-founder who is a longtime mentor of J.D. Vance.
BREAKING: We’re suing to stop the DOJ from abusing voters’ sensitive personal information.
This scheme to stockpile Americans’ private voter data threatens our privacy and opens the door to wrongful purges.
"This is an important thing to think about."
"We didn't start this fight, but I'm saying to Virginia, we need to finish it." Quote from VA Del. Delores McQuinn
Virginians: Today's the last day to vote on an important redistricting measure.
I hope you'll vote YES—for Virginia, and for the entire country.

The mainstream coverage is missing what actually happened this weekend inside MAGA.
They're asking whether Greene believes Butler was staged.
The real question is why the enforcement mechanism failed to silence her. New piece 👇

Pope Leo and Stephen Colbert are the most popular figures in American public life
Harry Enten said,”Maybe Trump's jealous of the Pope?... It's a blowout favoring the Pope in terms of popularity in America.
The Pope's net popularity rating: +34 pt. Trump: -12 pt.
With American Catholics specifically, they agree with the Pope on the war: it has a -10 pt net approval with them.”
New in PN: Trump Is dooming his party to a midterm blowout
"The difference between '18 and '26 is that not only has Trump become even more repellent, his actions have made everything worse. In fact, it’s hard to imagine what more he could do to enrage voters & ensure his party’s defeat in November"
Governor Tim Walz — "We are sick of this. A weak, reckless, Idiotic president just threw us into a war nobody asked for. No threat existed. No objectives were set. No exit plan exists. This is pure fascism." #cdnpoli
Cosplaying working class Rafael Cruz went to Princeton and Harvard. When he flees his constituents without power, he stays at the Ritz-Carlton.
His wife, Heidi, is Managing Director at the fancy investment firm Goldman Sachs.
They are not men & women with callouses on their hands. They are elites.
A five-times draft dodger is running the war.
A six-times bankrupter is running the economy.
What could go wrong?
Appearing on the podcast of Judge Andrew Napolitano, former CIA analyst Larry Johnson was discussing a range of issues relating to the president’s behavior when he brought up the nuclear issue.
“One report coming out of the White House is that Trump wanted to use the nuclear codes,”
“former CIA analyst Larry Johnson, “There is something seriously wrong’ with Trump…he expressed the desire to use the nuclear codes at an emergency meeting on Saturday night…General Dan Caine stood up & said no. He invoked his privilege as the head of the military. It was apparently quite a blow-up”
