Trump wants health insurance premiums to spike right after he allowed medical debt to adversely affect people’s credit ratings, while rolling out 50 year mortgages.

But he loves you, MAGA. That’s why he’s building that ballroom for you.

For those of you on this site who want to work for ICE, @lincolnproject.us has some advice for how to prepare. You absolutely need to make sure you practice zip-tying small children.

American democracy has always reflected the struggle between humanity's highest and lowest natures.

Democracy in action, Illinois.

Proud of our state for peacefully showing up and speaking out together in one voice to fight back against Donald Trump’s takeover of our democracy.

Today, I convened a group of former military generals and veterans to hear perspectives on deploying troops in American cities.

Their commitment is to our nation. That’s why they’re speaking out against what the President's doing as uncalled-for, unprecedented, and un-American.
