The National Park Service has removed signs that make reference to climate change amid the Trump administration’s wider effort to remove information that it says undermines “the remarkable achievements of the United States.”
National parks axe signs about climate, slavery and Japanese internment
The removals come after President Donald Trump issued an executive order in March seeking to remove “improper partisan ideology” from federal institutions.

While speaking at the Museum of the Bible, Trump claimed that domestic violence is inflating DC's crime stats.

Dawn Dalton, director of the DC Coalition Against Domestic Violence, told us: “We don’t agree with what the president is saying.”
The one crime Trump doesn't seem to have a problem with? Domestic violence.
"If a man has a little fight with the wife, they say this was a crime, see? So now I can't claim 100 percent [reduction in crime]," the president said Monday.

I can’t speak for anyone else, but this analogy of “Lady Liberty’ held captive, is exactly how I feel about this presidency & administration and what their attempting to do with our rights and freedoms…

The New Yorker captured the feelings perfectly…

One word, UNACCEPTABLE!

It is perfectly legal to know your rights and to educate others about them, too.

EVERYONE in the United States, citizen or not, has rights. I will not allow this administration to intimidate us from helping you know about them.

1. This is why when we say NOW is the time to fight book bans, we mean it. This is just around the corner. 2. When I was on book tour the events in states with conservative legislatures like this had crowds of 1500+. More people in America want the freedom to read than those that don’t.
This bill in OK is exactly what Project 2025 threatened: to make all pornography illegal, and criminalize the people who make it, using a WILDLY broad definition of pornography, which would include any book with sex in it.

We're talking jail time for romance authors.
