Dick Cheney did more than anyone else to build up expansive and destructive executive branch powers in the wake of 9/11; he lived to see another president turn those same powers against his own daughter.

He should be a warning sign to the GOP today but too many of them are in the cult.

Donald Trump wants to sell YOUR student loan debt to Wall Street.

He's not looking out for you — he's looking to make his CEO buddies more money off of your back.
Trump administration considers sale of federal student loan debt
The discussions have taken place among senior Education Department and Treasury Department officials.

Gavin Newsom announces that any California university that caves to Trump and signs his “loyalty pledge” will be immediately defunded.

“CALIFORNIA WILL NOT BANKROLL SCHOOLS THAT SELL OUT THEIR STUDENTS.”

The American people can't stand to see their insurance premiums doubled.

They can't stand to watch 15 million of their neighbors lose health care.

And they can't stand any more hospital closures.

That's why Democrats are fighting to reverse Republicans' health care cuts.

The government is officially shut down. Make no mistake: Republicans control the House, the Senate, and the White House. This is THEIR shutdown. They had every tool to govern and chose chaos instead. The American people are the ones paying the price.

If I ever hear MAGA say "America first", then why is Trump giving $20 BILLION to Argentina's authoritarian government?

Republicans can’t win on their policies, so they are trying to dodge accountability by rewriting the rules. These lawmakers are going out of their way to silence the will of the people and deliberately undermine our democracy.
The White House is continuing to pressure more states to gerrymander their congressional maps because they are afraid of voters holding them accountable for their unpopular policies.

This is a decisive moment for our democracy. Take action to fight back against this power grab. ⬇️

Well, well, well. FCC chairman Brendan Carr—who wrote a Project 2025 chapter—attended the “Reboot 2024” Conference with two VIPs from Peter Thiel’s Founders Fund (Trae Stephens and Mike Solana) and Heritage Foundation president Kevin Roberts (who spearheaded Project 2025).

Jimmy Kimmel deserves better than this. He’s a class act. Case in point - after my first appearance on his show back in 2018, he very thoughtfully asked whether I was receiving adequate security at that time, as Trump was repeatedly smearing journalists as “the enemy of the people,”
