We’ve set up a new task force to help keep you safe. At the last nationwide protest, 11 MAGA supporters were arrested for assaulting peaceful protesters—thanks to local authorities. We have coalition members at protests across the country to help monitor and stand alongside you.

The Trump Administration Accidentally Texted Me Its War Plans
U.S. national-security leaders included me in a group chat about upcoming military strikes in Yemen. I didn’t think it could be real. Then the bombs started falling.

The fight going on in the Democratic Party right now is not between hard left, left and moderate. It’s between those who want to fight and those who want to cave. And Team Fight stretches across all ideological aspects of the Party. Misread this at your own peril.
