Our confirmed count stands at 8.1 million participants worldwide for yesterday’s No Kings protest. Thank you to everyone who helped verify the numbers through our submission website. While some MAGAs attempted to submit false or misleading data (such as reporting “one person” for major cities)

Congratulations, America. You broke your heart.
The Corporation for Public Broadcasting announced today that it will begin phasing out its operations, following Congress’s recent decision to revoke previously allocated federal funding. CPB said it is initiating an “orderly wind-down” after nearly six decades.

Paramount settled Trump's frivolous lawsuit against 60 Minutes. Stephen Colbert rightfully spoke out about it. Now he's getting fired.
Reminder that Paramount needs approval from the FCC to be acquired by Skydance — a media company founded by the son of billionaire Trump-backer Larry Ellison.

The U.S. Constitution and longstanding federal law strictly limit the use of the military to police civilians. Under the Posse Comitatus Act of 1878, active-duty military forces are prohibited from engaging in domestic law enforcement unless explicitly authorized by Congress or the Constitution.

trump posted “now is a great time to buy” and waited 15 minutes before announcing a pause on tariffs. Some people got very rich today with a highly illegal thing called “market manipulation”. That’s the facts.

Let me get this straight: we can't "afford" to track disease, research cures or make sure food and drugs are safe, but we can afford to spend $4.5 trillion on tax breaks that mostly go to the rich?
WASHINGTON (AP) - Layoffs have begun at US health agencies charged with tracking disease, conducting research, regulating food and drugs.
