Protesting sign in true Minnesota fashion that reads OPE! Just sneaking by protest records!

1. A day after the Michigan church shooting, Republicans are silent after learning the shooter was a MAGA extremist.

No investigations of Trump supporters as terrorists. No national conversations about the rights of cisgender men.

The silence is deafening.

"Just because you're struggling doesn't mean you're broken." So much encouraging in this story.

I joined the Army as a cook, thinking it would keep me out of trouble. I wasn’t looking to be a hero; I just needed a reset. But the Army had other plans.

Trump’s team is already saying they will not spend funds that Congress has authorized and appropriated.

There is no point in Democrats voting to fund the government only to let Trump and Musk do whatever they see fit with those funds.

Call your Senator: (202) 224-3121

Senate Democrats must vote against the Republican's continuing budget resolution

It's the only way to hold the Trump regime accountable. Call your senators now.
