Public broadcasting costs just $1.60 per person each year but serves 99% of Americans with trusted news, PBS KIDS’ proven learning programs, and reliable emergency alerts when disasters strike. Cutting funds hurts rural and small-town communities most. Restore CPB funding.

Congress must investigate Treasury’s $20 B bailout of Argentina’s failing economy — a scheme that props up hedge-fund bets while cutting humanitarian aid. Americans deserve to know who profits from this misuse of taxpayer funds.

The budget stalemate is about more than money — it’s about power and accountability. Congress must extend ACA tax credits, force full Epstein file disclosure, and bar the president from using pocket rescissions to override Congress’s will.

Country fans are upset with Zach Bryan after he criticized ICE in a song.

But don't let it be known that Willie Nelson, Waylon Jennings, Kris Kristofferson, and Johnny Cash all despised fascism and leaned heavily to the left.

The trump regime is twisting the 2019 back-pay law to let them “pick and choose” who gets paid after a shutdown. Federal workers didn’t cause this. Congress must stand up for them and make sure they get every dollar they earned.

Heavily armed agents raided a Chicago apartment complex, zip-tying citizens and separating children under false pretenses. DHS now circulates white-supremacist memes while federal agents detain Americans without cause. Congress must investigate, defund, restore the rule of law before it’s too late.

An entire Arizona district is still voiceless. Adelita Grijalva was elected to Congress, but House leaders are stalling her swearing-in.

Why? Because her signature would be the 218th needed to force a vote on releasing the Epstein files.

Trump’s September 30 speech to top brass pushed domestic military involvement against an “enemy from within”—a sharp break with apolitical norms. Congress must place statutory guardrails on any domestic use of forces.
