Trump has decided to exempt coal used in steelmaking from Clean Air Act rules for the next two years. He issued a proclamation allowing coke oven facilities to sidestep existing limits on toxic emissions including mercury, formaldehyde, soot, and dioxins.

As you’re preparing for your Thanksgiving meal, remember the skilled work it took to get that food to your grocery store.

Tell us your favorite Thanksgiving dish, and we can share some of what we know about the work behind the ingredients.

Threatening to arrest the governor of a state is outrageous, even for this president.

We must stand up against this President’s attacks on the rule of law and our Constitution.
I will not back down.

Trump is now calling for the arrest of elected representatives checking his power.

What else is left on the path to full-blown authoritarianism?

All by myself…

Knocked at the door of the House chamber and no Republicans to be found.

They need to get back to work and stop health insurance premiums from doubling.

If we are to deprive political violence of its power, we must reject anyone who commits or promotes it - and also reject any move to exploit it.

My friends, over 80, can’t obtain a Covid shot. They are not being manufactured by order of RFK apparently. This is horrible: not acceptable!!!

Court papers filed Wednesday state that Mr. Abrego Garcia was beaten, deprived of sleep, and subjected to psychological torture during the nearly three months he spent in Salvadoran custody. It is unacceptable to send people to other countries to be tortured!

Imagine this is you.

You’re locked in a cell thousands of miles from home. No one knows where you are. No charges. No trial. No end in sight.

The Trump administration’s funding freeze could wreck summer programs for low-income families and wipe out after-school programs next year. Over $6 billion in federal grants is being withheld, impacting summer learning, after-school care, English language instruction, adult literacy, and more.

The US lost 33,000 jobs in June, after expecting to gain 100,000. Trump's brought America nothing but job insecurity, unpredictable tariffs, unstable markets and plummeting consumer confidence.

The U.S. Senate is currently considering a budget reconciliation bill that quietly includes language that could devastate our public lands. It would:
- Make over 250 million acres of public land eligible for sale
- Mandate the sale of at least 2 million acres of Forest Service and BLM land

No matter where someone was born, the United States should never tolerate inhumane treatment. Yet right now, detainees in ICE custody are facing conditions that are simply unacceptable in any country that claims to uphold human rights, let alone one that prides itself on freedom and the rule of law.

Since January 6th, MAGA has been normalizing political violence. Now, after what happened in Minnesota, they’re normalizing political assassinations. We cannot let MAGA turn America into a nation of conspiracy theories and thug violence.
