To the world:
We are fighting back. Our movement has been silenced by the media here—but we are not backing down. This is what our streets looked like across multiple cities. Tomorrow, there will be more of us! Raise a glass to freedom.

Your American allies.

Through his signing of executive orders and by implementing mass layoffs, Trump is trying to eliminate the Department of Education without input from Congress. It's right out of the Project 2025 playbook, and Democrats are fighting back. Stay informed with The Big Picture.

Donald Trump said he'd abolish the Department of Education, and that's exactly what he's doing.

If you send your kids to public school, Trump is sending you a clear message: he doesn’t care about you.

The layoffs mean that the department will now have a work force of about half the size it did when President Trump took office.

Wearing a mask in public is a form of community care. I know it's hard and sucks sometimes, but it'll help keep yourself and those you love healthier.
With over 200 cases of measles now reported across 13 states, Amelia Mavis Christnot provides a deep dive into this escalating outbreak and explains why vaccines are more important now than ever.

In 2017, Trump gave a $2 trillion tax cut mostly sucked up by billionaires and big corporations.

But it was so expensive, Republicans set many of their tax cuts to end after 2025.

Now, Republicans want to steal from working people to pay for more tax cuts for billionaires.

Back in the mid-20th century, the FBI could place an individual under surveillance solely for being LGBTQ. This is what enabled the anti-queer witch hunts of the McCarthy era. Now, DHS permits surveillance of LGBTQ people again. Just being queer makes you a suspect. www.advocate.com/politics/dhs...
DHS quietly eliminates ban on surveillance based on sexual orientation and gender identity
The DHS quietly updated its policy manual earlier this month, removing LGBTQ+ identities from the section prohibiting surveillance based solely on immutable characteristics.
