On Thursday, Florida, by unanimous vote, became the first state in the country to adopt “The Phoenix Declaration: An American Vision for Education.”
It was written by the Heritage Foundation, the same group behind Project 2025.

Trump faces heat from MAGA base on ‘America First’ agenda, Epstein
MAGA leaders erupted over the president’s assertion that the U.S. needs foreign workers. That rift and others have raised GOP concerns about enthusiasm ahead of the midterms.

I honestly don’t know what to say anymore. It is overwhelmingly clear at this point that the Republican Party has sold its soul to protect a child rapist, led by wealthy ghouls who will never have enough.

Why doesn't Trump (and most of the GOP) want the House to push for the release of the Epstein files?
The White House confirms Trump officials tried to convince Lauren Boebert today to drop her support for the Epstein files discharge petition.
Once Adelita Grijalva is sworn in this afternoon, majority support will be reached on that discharge petition in the House.

The average ACA benefit per month is up to $550 a person.
People want us to hold the line for a reason. This is not a matter of appealing to a base. It’s about people’s lives.
And working people want leaders whose word means something to them.
