The older I get, the more my politics mature from childish, naïve beliefs like "the world is complicated and leaders have to make hard decisions" to more serious, adult principles like "hurting people is bad and helping people is good."

Trump is refusing to use contingency funds to fund SNAP — even though his own administration’s guidance said he had the legal authority to do so.

But he’ll find a way to bail out Argentina, conduct extrajudicial killings in the Caribbean, and build a vanity ballroom.

Priorities.

Trump’s latest target? The Arctic National Wildlife Refuge, one of America’s last truly wild places. His administration just announced plans to open it up for oil and gas drilling, turning 1.56 million acres of pristine wilderness (home to polar bears, caribou, and migratory birds)

Turning the military on citizens.

Attempting to rig elections.

Toying with the idea of declaring martial law.

Attacking political enemies and punishing those who speak out.

If this were happening in another country, what would you call it?

The American Federation of Government Employees filed a lawsuit against the Trump administration for inserting partisan political statements into furloughed employees’ automatic out-of-office replies during the government shutdown without their consent.

At least Trump’s out golfing and enjoying his paid vacation meanwhile, we’re on day four of a government shutdown.

If the ongoing dysfunction in D.C. has taught us anything it’s that the Republican Party can’t even govern itself, much less the country.

But the chaos isn't happening randomly.

It's part of a manufactured plot to sew cynicism and get you to check out. Don't fall for it.

Apple has removed an ICE tracking app that allows users to report ICE activity nearby from its App Store.

The removal came after a direct demand from Trump’s DOJ.

Once again, Big Tech is bending the knee to our tyrant-in-chief to protect its bottom line.

We’ve gotten several messages that the Trump administration has tampered with federal employees’ email systems, making some people’s automatic Out of Office replies blame the government shutdown on the “radical left.” This was done without the employees’ knowledge.

As the government shutdown begins, remember that one of the biggest deficit drivers of the past 20 years are Republican tax cuts for the wealthy & corporations. The issue isn't programs that help millions of Americans, it's giveaways to the rich.

Today, Trump declared war on his own citizens, calling for U.S. cities to be used as “training grounds” for troops to confront what he called an “invasion from within.” Americans are a proud people, and no one (foreign or domestic) will threaten our home.

Wow. Chief Justice John G. Roberts Jr. just single-handedly ruled that Congress doesn’t really control the purse strings. This is becoming a massive crisis for checks and balances and the separation of powers.

We want to apologize if it feels like we’ve been venting a lot lately. It’s just hard to ignore that nearly every move from this administration seems to be illegal, unlawful, or outright unconstitutional and yet nothing happens.

When a president decides to disregard the will of the American people, you’re right, that’s the mark of authoritarian rule. The White House has notified Congress that it plans to cancel $4.9 billion in foreign aid funding that lawmakers had already approved, doing so without their consent.

Mail-in voting is safe. Period. Trump and Republicans know it. But they also know winning fair and square doesn’t look likely with their horrible policies and broken “promises.” That’s why they’re hell-bent on gutting voting rights. When you can’t win fair, you cheat.

In World War II, Fort Bliss was used as an internment camp for Japanese Americans.

In President Trump's first term, it was used to detain children separated from their families.

Now, it'll be the largest ICE detention camp in the country and tearing our communities apart. The cruelty must stop.

Things just keep getting more unhinged. The rhetoric coming out of the MAGA is fueling dangerous escalation. Democratic state lawmakers who left Texas to block the GOP’s redistricting scheme had to be evacuated from their suburban Chicago hotel due to a potential bomb threat, according to police.

I worry that escalating war with Iran will be used to whip up more fear and hate for non-white immigrants, particularly those of Arab descent, and be used for unjust deportations.
