The staff of a program that helps millions of poor families keep the electricity on, in part so babies don’t die from extreme heat or cold, have all been fired. The office overseeing the enforcement of child support payments nationally has been hollowed out.

Please share!!! This is getting ridiculous—they just can’t accept a loss. Please help spread the word to North Carolina. The North Carolina Court of Appeals ruled in a 2-1 decision that over 60,000 votes cast in last year’s closely contested state Supreme Court race must be verified and recounted.

Not just any company, the company of a high-ranking administration official. Endless corruption.

First, it was bathrooms, then sports, and now they’re getting to what they really wanted — the complete erasure of the trans community. Also, if you think this is going to stop at trans people, you are deeply mistaken.

this is the culmination of a 50 year right wing war on journalism, education, science, facts, and informed consensus

The ability to control mass party opinion this directly is unlike anything I’ve really seen in my time covering politics.

There is no credible excuse for the ten Democrats who voted to censure Congressman Al Green. None. It is a cowardly capitulation to asymmetrical warfare from the GOP out of fear, at best, and incompetent political opportunism at worst. And I will not forget those who tossed him aside. Ever.

Tens of thousands of people are dead, multiple cities and towns have been almost completely destroyed, and millions of people are displaced. And JD Vance laughs and smiles with Hannity about the invasion like it’s a game.

Volodymyr Zelensky's Oval Office visit ended early when Donald Trump and JD Vance began angrily yelling at him. Here's why women like Kamala Harris and Hillary Clinton are too emotional to be president.

So Musk is actively trying to kill our foreign service workers. All of our diplomats and staff in Juba, Sudan, live on a single compound. Today they woke up to find that all the vendors who provide them clean water, food, fuel, Internet, cell service, etc. ALL GOT TERMINATION LETTERS.

“You’re terminated because…?” Fired federal employees are telling their stories—no deep state, just career public servants tossed aside. DOGE’s mass firings aren’t about efficiency—they’re gutting expertise, wrecking lives, and calling it “reform.”

House Republicans just voted to gut Medicaid, which covers 1 in 5 Americans overall, including 41% of births and 63% of nursing home care. They also just voted to gut SNAP, on which 41 million food insecure Americans rely. This won’t just harm people. This will kill people. They own this.

This morning at Dept of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) HQ in DC as mandatory return to office began, this video played on loop for ~5 mins on screens throughout the building, per agency source. Building staff couldn’t figure out how to turn it off so sent people to every floor to unplug TVs.

How many federal workers would DOGE need to fire to make up for Musk not paying his fair share of taxes? Answer: 677,000. That's 44% of the entire non-DoD federal workforce. Again, this power grab is not about the budget. It’s about politics.
