A new poll shows that if AOC would beat Chuck Schumer in a Democratic primary in 2028 by TWENTY ONE POINTS.
I truly hope she runs for that Senate seat.
His words and deeds have proven him to be utterly ineffective in fighting the clear and present fascist danger.

A federal judge in D.C. just ruled that the Trump administration overstepped its authority by dismantling the U.S. Institute of Peace an independent, congressionally chartered nonprofit. Huge thanks to U.S. District Judge Beryl A. Howell for upholding the law.

Did staffing cuts at weather service affect Kentucky’s tornado response?
Due to staffing shortages, the National Weather Service in Jackson no longer has overnight staff. But NWS and Kentucky Gov. Andy Beshear say the office was staffed Friday night and early Saturday.
