There is no way to understate what is happening in America – a sinister alliance between a demagogue, the world’s richest man, and right-wing activists is remaking the federal government.
It Keeps Getting Worse—and No One Is Safe
Donald Trump and Elon Musk aren’t just inflicting pain on poor people abroad or imagined “enemies within.” Their parade of cruelty is coming for MAGA country too.

To honor one of the most compassionate Americans we've ever known, consider an act of kindness today, for a loved one or even a stranger, however small.
Be the reason someone feels seen today. Sometimes all it takes is a kind word or a sincere gesture.
It will make Jimmy smile.
