It takes real courage to stand up alone for what’s right. It takes little, to stand in a line of masked sheep doing what you know is wrong.

In Dallas, this brave soldier protested against ICE, voicing strong opposition to the erosion of constitutional rights. & Trump’s deployment of Marines to Los Angeles. She emphasized, “We refuse to be used to undermine constitutional freedoms.” Take hope: if there’s one, there are more.

The GENIUS Act—a “crypto regulation bill”—has received attention for failing to address Trump’s conflict-of-interest concerns. It’s so much worse than that. The bill amounts to “a hostile takeover of the money supply”, enabling the privatization of money by Big Tech & undermining the U.S. dollar.

Ed Martin, now the interim U.S. attorney for the District of Columbia, did not disclose his RT and Sputnik appearances from 2016 to 2024 to the Senate. The State Department has said the networks act like arms of Russian intelligence.

In an effort to suppress minority representation, Greg Abbott refuses to set a special election for Texas 18th district which is 44 percent Hispanic and 33 percent black. These people could go unrepresented for two years.

My God. ICE wrongfully arrested a man while his 5-year-old autistic child sat in the backseat—and shipped him off to an El Salvador prison. No due process. Now the Trump administration claims they can’t get him back. How many more? THIS NEEDS TO BE A BIGGER STORY.

Folks, this is a scam. The GOP is helping Elon Musk and his friends loot the federal government and give themselves billions in federal contracts—and then wants to give them permanent tax breaks on the back end by cutting critical programs. Let's call it what it is: a scam on the American people.

DOGE cut off payments for the electricity, cell phone, and internet service of U.S. government employees who work in a high-risk area in Central America. Meanwhile, DOGE apparently plans to spend $25,000 to install a washer and dryer for their own personal use in a federal office building in DC.

The House could vote next week on drastic cuts to Medicaid that would gut critical programs that protect the civil rights and dignity of millions of Americans — including people with disabilities. Contact your member of Congress: No cuts to Medicaid.

Garcia: "I find it ironic that our chairman, Rep. Greene, is in charge of running this committee. In the last Congress, Chairwoman Greene literally showed a dick pic in our Oversight hearing, so I thought I'd bring one as well. This, of course, is President Elon Musk ... "
