The last time troops policed America was in the 1770s.

We fought a revolution against that king, and wrote into the Constitution the Second, Third, Fourth, and Fifth Amendments to prevent it from ever happening again.

Pass it along…

Trump’s EPA wants to roll back standards regulating pollutants from burning fossil fuels, like car exhaust and methane.

Meanwhile, 17 staffers in his White House own up to $2.2 million of stock in Big Oil companies.

They’re getting rich off polluting the planet.

Hello Mueller, She Wrote, I’m Zach, a high school journalist. I just published an exclusive investigation into how 193 Trump donors funneled $2M through Guam, raising quid pro quo and campaign finance concerns. Would be grateful if you gave it a look or shared it:

I don't care if these monstrous ICE raids are a "federal operation". This is authoritarian violence, plain and simple.

Just because Stephen Miller has kidnapping quotas for brown people he doesn't want to see on the street doesn't mean we have to think it's okay.

Some federal workers are going back to work.

The USDA has been ordered to temporarily give over 5,000 workers their jobs back.
