Johnson: "He has defunded our education system. He has defunded our transportation system. He's firing black women across this country. He's defunding our healthcare system. This president is absolutely out of control... Chicago is going to stand firm in protecting humanity."

This tragedy will never be forgotten — lives were lost, families torn apart, and entire communities forever changed — and there must be accountability.

We thank the U.S. DOJ and ATF for their thorough investigation into this fire and for confirming the indisputable facts on the ground.

Today's arrest of 29-year-old Florida resident Jonathan Rinderknecht marks an important step toward determining how the horrific #PalisadesFire started and bringing closure to the thousands of survivors whose lives were upended.
Authorities have made an arrest in connection with the deadly Palisades Fire that ravaged part of Los Angeles earlier this year, now believed to have been caused by arson, officials said.

Today, Donald Trump and Republicans are shamefully shutting down the federal Suicide & Crisis Lifeline for LGBTQ youth.

California will not stand idly by.

We're partnering with @trevorproject.bsky.social to upgrade the state's 24/7 call centers to provide life-saving support and care.

Donald Trump sold out farmers for his friends at Mar-a-Lago.

If he cared about them, he wouldn't be cutting off programs that helped them just to sow chaos to feed his ego.
Farmers face steep losses in the middle of Trump's trade war and funding cuts
From funding cuts to tariffs, farmers have found themselves struggling to find markets for their products and facing the risk of steep losses for the year ahead.

Now that Trump has proven to be a ruthless autocrat, too many have grown timid and silent.

That is simply not who I am. It is not what I believe, and it is not what I will do.

Instead, I will worry. I will hope. And I will fight.

Trump and Elon have been labeling any judge who upholds the law and the Constitution as an activist and arguing that they should be impeached. The Chief Justice of the United States rejected their calls to impeach federal judges who have aggressively pushed back on the administration’s initiatives.

America are you watching?
Extraordinary scenes in Serbia’s capital Belgrade right now.

Around 500,000 people are on the streets in what may be the biggest protest in Serbian history. All demanding the resignation of President Vučić & his government.

What began as a student protest is now a full democratic uprising.
