Recently, the Senate Appropriations Subcommittee included nearly level federal funding for libraries in their first proposed budget bill. Take action now to urge the House of Representatives to follow suit and support library funding in next year's budget (FY26)! #fundlibraries
Tell Congress to #FundLibraries
The American Library Association is leading the charge for libraries. Librarians, information professionals, and everyone who loves them must tell their members of Congress to support full federal fun...

Pat Proctor, KS house elections chair, talking about attacking voter access and voter rights. The GOP continues to push vote suppression. It’s the only way they can win, because their policies are so damn unpopular.

Every republican government has crashed the economy. It continues with the current. They don’t govern, they attack to and consolidate power to enrich themselves. Despicable.

To give perspective on how tariffs really impact industry. Thousands of parts from multiple counties, all now costing more. This is will have dramatic and lasting impacts on the auto industry, and disrupt US presence in the global economy moving forward.

Mike Johnson says everyone should trust trumps instincts.
The GOP needs to own this. It’s their policy and their history to tank the American economy. More telling is that they only care about future votes, not America’s future. The GOP is defunct.

"They’re not only bad economically, they’re bad politically," warned Kentucky Sen. Rand Paul.

Again and again and again. Republicans do not care about you. They care about lobbyists and their wealthy friends. Vote blue.
Nearly every Republican in the Senate voted to overturn a Biden Admin rule that limited bank overdraft fees to $5.

This rule, initially established by the now gutted CFPB, was expected to save consumers $5 billion annually.

The GOP is the party of junk fees.

After denying his freedom of religion, he spoke out in protest. He was assaulted in front of law enforcement who did nothing until he defended himself. Then they attacked and arrested him. Absolutely disgusting violation of rights.

That’s what happens when you break the law. When you commit treason and sedition. When you attack the foundation of our country. Trump belongs in prison, and his party knows that.

The GOP used voter suppression to undermine democracy, and in only two months has destroyed America’s reputation globally, increased financial burdens on all Americans, started disappearing political opponents, and is dismantling courts to establish Trump’s authoritarian rule.

Make no mistake, the leaked Yemen messages were classified operational information. Having worked that problem set in the past, I have no doubts. This administration is simply skirting accountability and maintaining their hypocritical “leadership.” They need to be punished.
It's wild that the flight times of the flights deporting the Venezuelans is classified information.

However, White House officials claim that the flight times and strike sequencing of an imminent attack on Yemen is not classified information.

Which is it?

Hypocrisy and treason. This administration is unforgivable and the GOP should never be allowed power again.
Happy One Month Anniversary to this story.

Progress! The GOP can be beat. Keep it up!
Well there it is! With all precincts reporting, Dem James Malone beats Republican Josh Parsons 50-49 to flip Pennsylvania's ultra-ancestrally GOP #SD26! That shrinks the GOP margin in the Senate to 27-23 and is a 16-point overperformance compared to 2024. Our Big Board -->

John Ratcliffe tried to argue today that Signal is approved for use for government business. While it is often used for daily communication, it is NEVER authorized for operational matters. It is certainly not for classified information. His testimony is misleading and deeply problematic.
