Because of you, we raised over $55,000 in support of public libraries during National Library Week 💓 (At least one of our team members cried seeing that number. Okay, fine, it was me.)
Thank you SO MUCH to everyone who donated, shared, or showed support for their library in other ways.

The city repeatedly asked the Justice Department to identify alleged antisemitic incidents. The Justice Department never responded. Now the meeting is canceled.

The Dallas ICE office is involved in a mass removal effort targeting nearly 200 people — many without removal orders — scheduled to be deported to El Salvador today.
This is not just cruel – it is lawless. I refuse to stay quiet while families are being torn apart, and lives are being put at risk.

Rand Paul is a dark tetrad traitor who takes his orders from Moscow, but he still wants to stay in office. What he's saying here is correct.
Rand Paul: "The whole [tariffs] debate is so fundamentally backwards & upside down. It's based on a fallacy & the fallacy is this: that somehow in a trade, someone must lose. That somehow when you trade with someone, someone is taking advantage of you... I have a trade deficit with my grocery store"

Rand Paul is speaking out against Trump’s tariffs, and a few Republicans are also finally crawling out of hiding. Rubio, Cruz, and others once criticized tariffs. They know better than to do this to Americans. Republicans are cowards who chose fear and loyalty to a convicted felon over principle.
