Administration officials pile lie upon lie upon lie. When a president and his aides are doing that, it’s no longer America.

When masked government thugs take potshots at a priest, it’s no longer America.

State-sponsored mayhem starts at the top. trib.al/wacZVvn

Memo to Future Historians: This Is Fascism, and Millions of Us See It

From Chicago to Portland, James Comey to Letitia James, and so much else—this is no longer America.

The US has finalized its $20 billion bailout for Argentina, a main US competitor in the soybean market.

This is a move that will only further screw over American soybean farmers, who're being priced out of their own market.

Maybe we’ll get to 2026 and have a free and fair election and everything goes back to normal. Maybe this crisis is just a crisis, and not an indication of large-scale systemic failure.

But it's pretty bad that it's a definite "maybe." www.thebulwark.com/p/is-this-wh...

George was just trying to get to work.

ICE pepper-sprayed him, dragged him from his car, locked him in a detention center, and placed him on suicide watch. He even missed his young daughter’s birthday in the process.

This man is a veteran and American citizen. Don't look away.

A bunch of comedians tried to make up for their participation in the Riyadh comedy festival by donating their pay to Human Rights Watch and Human rights Watch was like “nah bitch we don’t want your dirty blood money” 😂😂 I’m dying

By floating false allegations of violence, Trump wants to scare people away from exercising their constitutional rights. We won’t let him succeed.

Don’t let this smear distract you. The best response to attacks on our rights is to exercise our rights. That means showing up in huge numbers on 10/18.
