Today, in an urgent letter to Congress, more than 180 FEMA workers sounded the alarm about the Trump administration’s cuts to the agency's funding.
With hurricane season upon us, employees warn that an understaffed, under-resourced agency means the country is at even greater risk of disaster.

The MAGA base is not happy. Trump’s handling of the Epstein controversy has done significant damage to his standing, particularly among his core supporters.

A federal judge in California ruled that the Trump administration is not allowed to cut funding to Los Angeles and other places with "sanctuary" policies that limit cooperation on immigration enforcement.

In Nazi Germany, teachers had to join the National Socialist Teachers League and swear loyalty to Hitler. The regime rewrote school curricula to glorify German exceptionalism, enforce rigid gender roles, and remove dissenters from classrooms through ideological purges and forced conformity.

Nazi education policy banned pluralistic or “un-German” views while turning schools into tools of state ideology. Oklahoma’s new “America First” test for teachers follows that logic by demanding allegiance to nationalism and punishing those with inclusive or critical approaches to teaching.

Project 2025 proposes shifting federal oversight of election-related offenses out of the DOJ's Civil Rights Division. This would limit federal enforcement of voter discrimination claims, allowing states greater control over elections with fewer federal guardrails.

In Texas, MAGA are redrawing congressional maps to secure long-term dominance. The new maps reduce the voting power of Black and Latino communities. Under Project 2025’s vision, challenges to this would be harder to pursue through the Justice Department.

Project 2025 outlines using criminal statutes to prosecute voter fraud while downplaying federal responsibility for voter suppression. In states like Texas, this shift supports efforts to restrict mail-in voting & redraw districts with minimal outside interference.

P2025 also discourages DOJ involvement in reviewing state election procedures, directing complaints to local law enforcement. This decentralization benefits states like Texas that are actively redrawing maps without any federal civil rights oversight.

Texas is now the front line for Project 2025’s election agenda. The proposed legal structure protects partisan gerrymandering while ignoring civil rights voting issues. As Texas redraws its maps, Project 2025 offers the policy playbook to make those changes stick.

The Library of Congress got caught quietly altering its online display of the Constitution, removing Sections 9 and 10 of Article I. Trump's least favorite sections which guarantees the right to challenge unlawful detention and requires the government to justify confinement.
