Oh my GOATness, the fire goats are back 🔥🐐
They’re not just cute, these four-legged friends are preventing wildfires, by munching away wildlife grasses that can go up in flames during the summer.
Consider them nature’s lawn mowers and fire preventers, all in one!

Remember when Trump claimed the Biden administration wasn’t doing enough to help North Carolina recover from Hurricane Helene?
Well, his administration just denied the state’s request for continued FEMA relief assistance.
This hypocrisy isn’t just staggering. It’s cruel.

America cannot long remain free, nor first among nations, if it becomes the kind of place where universities are dismantled because they don't align politically with the current head of the government.

House Republicans pushed through their scam to punish working families across the nation early this morning.
Hospitals will close, kids will go hungry, and people will lose their health care.
This fight isn't over, Illinois — stand up and speak out as it goes to the Senate.

The House passed their awful budget bill last night. The vote was 215-214-1. (Every Dem voted against it.)
In case you’re wondering if this is good news for our economy, stocks, bonds and the dollar are all down today.
