So Donald Trump’s big donors and giant corporations get massive tax breaks, but Americans waiting for SNAP payments are told to eat dirt? Did I get that right?

Children across the country are being traumatized by this administration.

Listen to this mother talk about how ICE raided her child's preschool. It's insane that this #ICELawlessness can happen in the United States of America!

Is this still the land of liberty?

How anyone can continue to deny climate change is beyond me. Yet they're out there, including in positions of influence.

The United States Military Academy has just eliminated all Cadet clubs and activities for POC. Most of these have existed for decades like the Society of Black Engineers. They were there when I was a Cadet in 1987. All of the religious ones remain. This isn’t DEI. It’s white Christian Nationalism.

Trump ran on promises of lower costs for working families. But in the end, his tariffs and taxes will lead to higher costs for imports, higher prices for consumers like us. That’s not what he promised. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv...

Alienating allies and partners that the U.S. desperately needs means that “America First” will be “America Alone.”

Some government websites have gone dark.

Climate change is being removed from government sites.

Nonpolitical workers are being fired from government jobs.

Americans are being cut off from information.

This is what authoritarianism looks like.

While President Trump illegally pauses federal funding from Congress, the Senate must not be business as usual.

We do not consent to this lawless power grab.

College keeps getting more and more expensive. Even in the 2000s, I was working 2-3 jobs. Worse now. People need help.
Counting scholarships toward tuition as income is not only needlessly punitive toward lower & middle income students, but it disincentivizes pursuing higher ed at all (their goal).
“Republican lawmakers are considering a change to tax policy that would make college more expensive for students receiving grants and scholarships to help pay their tuition bill.”

I’ve always dreamed of living in a place like this. It would be amazing to see this concept expanded on a much larger scale. Imagine repurposing dying malls into vibrant, mixed-use communities.

Oregon lawmakers are crafting a bill to protect residential electric customers from the costs of adding transmission and generation for the state's power-hungry data centers.

The data center industry may object to portions of the legislation, though, and Big Tech has enormous clout in Salem.
