We’ve bombed Iran. And dismantled our joint terrorism task force. And sent a third of the FBI to help ICE. And gutted the National Security Council. And a drunk guy is in charge at the pentagon. And our intelligence allies probably won’t share intel with us. Because people couldn’t vote for a woman.

Without Congressional approval or the support of the American people, Trump took unilateral action to bomb Iran — an aggressive first strike against a powerful adversary, made only to feed the ego of a man obsessed with holding power over people’s lives. I condemn him, and I condemn his illegal war.

To America’s 2.3 million federal employees:
Don’t accept a buyout.
Neither Musk nor even Trump has the legal authority to make such an offer.
And even if they did, would you trust them to follow through on it?
Sincerely,

Former U.S.Secretary of Labor

Yes. I like that my senator’s call to action is simple. And something every day people around the country can do.
Lawless. Destructive. Cruel. Mean. Nasty. Illegal.
That's Trump's order.
Even with a judge pausing it—we must keep fighting because we know Trump'll keep working to slash programs that help Americans.
Speak up about how Trump’s order will hurt YOUR community.

The Senate is on track to confirm 235 of President Biden’s judicial nominees — more than Trump got through in his first term. To get there, Senate Democrats still need to keep working for the next 10 days to confirm the outstanding nominees or Trump will fill those vacancies with MAGA loyalists.

Nikki Giovanni wrote this poem on the death of Gwendolyn Brooks but her words are big and right enough to immortalize her, too. And in them, we see how Giovanni's own power, of mind and word, "revolves into a resolve that we carry in our own hearts."
