Huh. Things seemed fine under Biden, according to data. Harvest sales were great in 2024. Harvest for Trump’s 2025? Non-existent.

“What the administration is doing violates the First Amendment and the Communications Act,” Anna Gomez (the FCC’s lone Democratic commissioner) told TNR's Greg Sargent, noting that the government is “using the public interest standard to go after anything it doesn’t like.”

Trump’s Ouster of Jimmy Kimmel Is Much Worse Than You Think It Is
Anna Gomez, the FCC’s lone Democratic commissioner, tells TNR that chairman Brendan Carr’s move violates both the First Amendment and the Communications Act. Democrats must extract consequences.

Russ Vought’s Scheme Has Been Unmasked
Hundreds of billions in appropriated spending has been withheld, with dire consequences. Government funding shouldn’t be derailed like this.

Check out the successful, happy countries with universal healthcare and strong social welfare systems. They prioritize education to improve their nation. Typically, educated people are more likely to accept science and often identify as atheists. Interesting, huh?

The largest SNAP cuts in history went into effect yesterday, eliminating or drastically cutting food assistance for millions of Americans.
And it’s all to pay for more tax cuts that primarily benefit the super-rich.
Trickle-down economics isn't just a hoax — it's cruel.

I am sickened by the relentless demonisation of refugees.
No refugee underfunded a school.
No refugee closed a hospital.
No refugee took away support from the sick and disabled.
We need solutions not scapegoats. Stop blaming refugees and tax the rich instead!

If crime is so rampant in D.C., why did felon47 empty the federal prosecutors' office, U.S. Attorney's office & reduced budget by $1 billion. Felon47 moved 500 federal police officers that work to interdict drugs (something much more effective and important) and moved them to do traffic checkpoints!

President Trump's deployment of the National Guard to DC and takeover of the local police department is baseless and an abuse of power.
The people of DC shouldn't be forced to live in occupied, militarized communities.
