When the president is destroying national landmarks, murdering fishermen, raising prices because he's angry over a Reagan video, and kidnapping parents in front of their crying children is probably not an ideal time to have a lazy, completely incompetent legislative branch perpetually on vacation.

Rule of Law Alert: Trump’s authority for country-specific tariffs comes from the International Emergency Economic Powers Act, which doesn’t mention tariffs—but does require a national emergency.

An ad showing that Reagan opposed tariffs surely is not a national emergency. (It may be a personal one)

Democrats should hold a press conference and announce that if Mike Johnson has no interest in running the House they'd be happy to do it for him
Mike Johnson has dissolved Congress. Why?

Hope is not a sentimental optimism that things will somehow work out; hope is the subversive conviction that injustice and death will not have the final word and acting on that belief. Hope is not passive waiting it’s active persistence. Hope prays, peacefully protests, weeps, and keeps showing up.

CDC is a crucial component of our economic infrastructure.

Infectious diseases disrupt the workforce and decrease spending.

Dismantling the CDC and cutting Medicaid will have many consequences, both intended and unintended.

This is nothing more than a continuation of the president’s desperate weaponization of our justice system.

I am not fearful — I am fearless.

We will fight these baseless charges aggressively, and my office will continue to fiercely protect New Yorkers and their rights..

You would think that with everyone holding a video camera in their pocket, no one would fall for the fear-mongering, but people believe what they want to believe.

If overwhelmed, pick one national and one local news source and follow them for a specific duration each day.

For example:
the PBS News Hour
Heather Cox Richardson’s daily letters.
News summary from a local paper.

Don’t just avoid all news.
Sometimes we need a moment, but if you tune out completely, they win. Fascism doesn’t need your support, just your silence.

THESE ARE THE SENATORS THAT SUPPORT THE TRUMP SHUTDOWN. Trump and congressional republicans are pushing a bill that makes health care premiums higher, kicks people off of their insurance, and keeps cuts to Medicaid coverage. They're trying to steal from us to give more tax cuts to billionaires.
