Trump’s Justice Department is hellbent on accessing our private voter information—Social Security numbers, party affiliation, driver's licenses—resulting in what experts warn would be a gold mine for hackers.

Mr. President, it’s not spin — it’s real life for millions of American families. If their health care premiums go up, they’re going to feel the pain and a lot of them won’t be able to afford it. Let’s sit down and fix this

Donald Trump is plotting to cut Social Security benefits for older Americans — after he promised during the campaign that he wouldn’t touch Social Security.

We must call it out and stop these cuts.

Sen. Schiff to NBC: "He's described me as the enemy within. He's described other Democratic elected officials as the enemy within. He is using the Justice Dept. to go after his political enemies, and he's using the Justice Dept. to protect his political friends … This should concern every American."

Furloughs at the DOJ could impact domestic violence grants.

I was a skeptic about the import of the Epstein files.

But 3 invasions of cities, one military buildup outside Venezuela, a government shutdown, and so many other things meant to distract have me convinced whatever’s in there is the biggest presidential scandal in U.S. history.

Trump's FAA just lifted restrictions placed on Boeing after its fatal 737 MAX crashes.

Meanwhile, Boeing workers in St. Louis just entered their ninth week on strike.

Putting profits over workers and safety is a key reason why Boeing has taken a nosedive.

This chart clearly shows that what Democrats believe about the economy lines up with objective reality, whereas Republicans will believe whatever they are told to believe by the charlatans in charge of their cult. Democratic opinions acknowledged the pandemic, the recovery, *and* the current market.

In 2016, Louisiana received $48.3 million to relocate 37 residents or families of Isle de Jean Charles as climate-charged hurricanes and sea-level rise made the community uninhabitable.

Years later, Indigenous residents report broken homes — and promises.

He sent the House home for YET ANOTHER WEEK because he cares more about protecting the Epstein files than he does about protecting the American people.

Things to consider:

Document the violence & violations--on camera, w/photos, saving images--any way you can. Speaking as a historian- it will matter

Point out violations--w/images & text--even if you think it won't matter. It will. It needs to be called out & exposed

You are a witness.
Expose it.
