Know Your Rights. Hold the Line. As things escalate in LA, our team is gathering vital resources for staying safe, smart, and standing up for our neighbors. A government of the people shouldn't treat its people as the enemy.

ICE raids. Marines in the streets. $134M for a crackdown, $45M for a parade.

This is not normal.

Our latest newsletter has what to do, what to watch, and how to help.

Marines on our streets. The governor threatened with arrest.

This moment echoes the darkest chapters of history - abroad, AND here at home. This is what a manufactured crisis looks like.

The “One Big Beautiful Bill” should terrify anyone who cares about checks and balances. From court-defying powers to political control over regulatory agencies, this isn’t a tax bill—it’s a playbook for authoritarianism. We broke it down: https://bit.ly/3SlWNvk

While Trump flies around on a foreign government’s jet and plans a $700 million parade, everyday Americans are losing healthcare and public workers are being laid off.

The RNC says they’re interviewing the “smartest people” in every state to join DOGE, so we took the quiz. Spoiler: it’s not going well.
