BREAKING: In a bipartisan vote, the House just voted to extend Affordable Care Act subsidies for three years!

This is a common-sense solution that will help millions of people suffering from outrageous health care costs. RNs urge Republican Senators to vote YES too!

Trump campaigned on an “America First” platform. Now he wants to "run" Venezuela?

60% of Americans live paycheck to paycheck. Health care is collapsing. Housing is unaffordable.

Trump should address these major crises at home and end his illegal military adventurism abroad.

Thomas Paine rejected the authoritarian ruler of his day as “nothing better than the principal ruffian of some restless gang, whose savage manners or pre-eminence in subtlety obtained him the title of chief among plunderers.”

No King in 1776

No King in 2026.

As America celebrates its 250th birthday, remember the founder who rallied the people against British and American oligarchs.
