They ignored a lawful subpoena, recycled public records, and conveniently left out Donald Trump. This is not transparency.

Did Trump’s DOJ really think dropping hundreds of blacked-out pages counted as complying with the law?
I know it’s a bunch of unqualified folks with no backbone over there, but this is next-level.

We have the signatures needed to bring a vote to extend the ACA tax credits—but MAGA Mike is canceling votes for the rest of the week, turning his back on the American people.
Millions of Americans will soon see their health care premiums skyrocket because Republicans refuse to do their job.

AOC: I want to remind you where the real crime is. It's in the oligarchs taking $170 billion of our money from health care and food assistance and public programs and taking that and funneling it into a secret police program.

If you’re telling Head Start programs they can’t say “disability”, “Black”, “female”, or “Tribal” in order to get funded—you don’t care about kids. Period.
This administration is attacking the very protections that keep children safe and supported. Our kids are not political props.

Let’s be clear: The DOJ has already been subpoenaed. They’re legally obligated to release the full Epstein files—and they’re still dragging their feet.
It’s a shame we’ve even gotten to the point of needing a discharge petition.
