A Trump official diverted firefighting resources to a fire on his private ranch. He got 9 aircraft for the 7-acre fire while the 90,000 acre Grasshopper fire in Oregon got about the same. These guys kneecapped wildfire prevention and now they’re diverting what few resources remain for personal gain.

NEW: Trump is moving to open 45 million acres of national forest to logging and development. 45 million. Acres. Land that belongs to you, that your grandparents protected, that nobody gets to replace. We just launched this. Tell Congress to stop him: actionnetwork.org/letters/tell...

There is still no independent way to remove an unfit president. Tell your Representatives to pass Raskin’s bill or own why they won’t. #RepublicansStarveUS

One justice has more power and less accountability than almost anyone in government. Ask your Representative why they haven’t cosponsored the articles of impeachment filed against him. #RepublicansStarveUS

Breaking: Trump suffers horrible morning in the courts, in Congress, and in the war. The SAVE Act is dead and Thune confirms that they don't have the votes to pass it or to nuke the filibuster. In the Courts, Trump missed a key deadline to get a rehearing on his birthright citizenship case.

Planned Parenthood has endorsed Idaho’s Reproductive Freedom & Privacy Act ballot initiative. It would restore abortion access up to viability, protect birth control & IVF, & return reproductive decisions to Idahoans instead of politicians. It's huge! www.plannedparenthoodaction.org/planned-pare...

When you block the promotion of our top naval officers because they don't fit your preferred demographic, you’re not defending the country. You’re betraying the values that define it.

At least 75 career federal officials who’d played important roles in elections have left, been fired or been reassigned. In their place are roughly two dozen people Trump has installed in positions that could affect elections. Ten of them actively worked to reverse the 2020 vote. (Published April)

E. Jean Carroll, the writer who won a pair of civil lawsuits alleging sexual abuse and defamation by Trump, received the more than $5.6 million in damages he owed her, according to a court filing. The payment marks a significant victory that Trump has fought hard to prevent since his first term.

OPINION: "Trump’s March executive order declared a national emergency over supposed foreign interference in our elections ... [letting him] block the use of 'property' like voting machines and tabulators that he claims are tainted while an investigation grinds on, and he never has to prove a thing."

Ossoff: "Citizens United was the most destructive court decision in modern history. It's unleashed a flood of secret money, corporate money, billionaire money. Trump's rise is a symptom of this deeper disease. Our task is not just to contain his wickedness, but to cure the rot that gave rise to it."
