We told you it would happen. Trump and Musk are abandoning our veterans because they've never cared about the men and women who serve.

The term “due process” can sound like jargon, so when people use it consider replacing it with “factual accuracy.”

The law says the govt can do certain things to people if certain facts exist. Requiring "due process" is how courts ensure that those facts actually exist.

Imagine what the news coverage would be like if Hamas had just killed 700+ Israelis.

But it’s Palestinians being murdered, so it’s a foot note.

Hundreds of children brutally killed with US-supplied weapons, but life goes on like nothing is happening.

This is what we’re all worried about with the new voting restriction law called the “SAVE” Act ⬇️
As predicted, women in New Hampshire had a hard time voting yesterday because of the new proof of citizenship law:

“It doesn’t have my married name on it,” she said. Town voting officials then sent her away a second time, to get her marriage certificate.

NH’s new ID requirements send some would-be voters home to grab passports, birth certificates
The law requires all new voters to show proof of their U.S. citizenship. For some, that meant making multiple trips to and from the polls before finally casting a ballot on Tuesday.

(1/3) It needs repeating: in 1994, Ukraine was persuaded to give up its nuclear weapons to Russia in return for the US, the UK, and Russia guaranteeing Ukraine’s sovereignty, security, and territorial integrity.

A week after the Israeli military targeted the Palestinian town Khallet al Dabea, where it destroyed seven homes and three caves and the community’s water tanks, it has returned to continue forcing Palestinians off their land.

Trump promised voters he had nothing to do with Project 2025 while he was campaigning.

He lied.

36 of his first week executive orders were ripped straight out of the Project 2025 playbook.

Pay attention.

Elon’s DOGE rampage will be a wake up call for what a decimated government really means.

Cuts to FAA? Higher risk of plane crashes.

Cuts to Forest Service? Higher fire risk. Cuts to the CDC? Higher pandemic risk. Cuts to the EPA? Higher toxic exposures risk — and on and on.

It is perfectly legal to know your rights and to educate others about them, too.

EVERYONE in the United States, citizen or not, has rights. I will not allow this administration to intimidate us from helping you know about them.

We just want to say that we are in awe of all of you. You are the ones history will remember—a resistance rising against tyranny. From the moment Trump took office, laws have been broken left and right. We shouted from the rooftops, and it took relentless effort just to have our voices heard.

The Resistance is growing—our coalition has now reached 125,000 strong. The Trump administration will try to silence us, but they underestimate the power of the people. Together, we will bring balance back to our democracy.

Word is that employees who responded to the buyout offer before last week’s deadline may have mistakenly received termination notices; however, their buyout agreements will still be honored.
