In a coordinated move, multiple federal agencies joined BlueSky yesterday and turned to trolling the opposition. Our Assessment on Democratic Decline warns of this autocratic practice: attacking the free press and narrowing the space in which factual reporting can safely operate without retaliation.

The Trump administration just ordered two Gulfstream luxury private jets for Kristi Noem at a cost of over $172 million.

The 400 richest Americans are now worth a record $6.6 trillion, after getting $1.2 trillion richer over the past year alone.

Meanwhile, the rest of the country is getting squeezed by tariffs and high prices for groceries, utilities, and health care.

The system is broken.

If Trump's "big, beautiful" reconciliation bill goes through, 13.7 million people will lose their health insurance & even more will become underinsured.

Make no mistake, thousands of low-income & working class Americans will die unnecessarily if it passes. We must not allow it.

The president can veto or support legislation. He can make recommendations to Congress. But he doesn't have the unilateral right to change laws.

Trump has very little respect for the rule of law & our Constitution. He is moving us toward authoritarianism.

We must stop him.
