The difference between Democrats surrendering in March and fighting back now is us. We’re building a unified opposition party that stands up to Trump’s regime and its enablers.

Trump is trying to incite violence with his deployment of federal troops to Chicago, but hopefully this lawsuit will put an end to that.

Illinois, Chicago sue to stop Trump from sending National Guard troops to the city

Mike Johnson says Democrats should pass the Budget and then Republicans will debate the extension of ACA subsidies, lower ACA premiums, and expanded eligibility. However, in early 2021, zero Republicans voted for the American Rescue Plan Act supporting those benefits. Why should we trust them now?

Trump promised retribution against politicians, civil servants and attorneys that were trying (and in almost all cases, failed) to hold him accountable for his crimes, and now he is carrying out his threat, which is unlawful and unconstitutional.
